Beyond the Smoke (Remix) | SILL-E ft BLACKSONIX

Beyond The Smoke (Remix) Original by https://suno.com/@ellisknightmuisc1014 **[INTRO]** *(Vinyl crackle — scratched vocal)* “Rise above the chaos…” “Look higher…” *(Heavy boom-bap drums drop)* **[CHORUS]** We rise beyond the smoke, where the truth get told They can build a cage outta concrete and gold I done seen light shine where the cold wind blow Head high, eyes open — **beyond the smoke** We rise beyond the smoke, where the fake can’t go Pain turned pressure, now the spirit got soul Every loss taught lessons that the heart can hold Now I’m looking past the clouds — **beyond the smoke** **[VERSE 1]** I was chasing every road that I thought led to the treasure, God was changing my direction, I was calling it bad weather. Had my hand upon the wheel, thought I knew where I was headed, Then He closed a couple doors that I swore I needed open. I was looking for the answers in the noise of everybody, While the quiet voice inside kept telling me, “Walk beside Me.” I learned purpose ain't a trophy, ain't a number, ain't applause, Sometimes losing what you wanted puts you closer to the cause. I seen darkness try to convince me that my past was my identity, God saw something underneath the parts that tried defeating me. Every setback left a lesson, every failure left a clue, I thought I was finding God — **turns out He was finding me too.** So I don't fear the smoke, I know the Light is still above it, When the road gets complicated, I remember who I trust in. They can question every move, they can question every road, But I ain't walking by myself — **God carries what I hold.** **[CHORUS]** We rise beyond the smoke, where the truth get told They can build a cage outta concrete and gold I done seen light shine where the cold wind blow Head high, eyes open — **beyond the smoke** We rise beyond the smoke, where the fake can’t go Pain turned pressure, now the spirit got soul Every loss taught lessons that the heart can hold Now I’m looking past the clouds — **beyond the smoke** **[VERSE 2]** God don't need an algorithm just to calculate my worth, He knew me before the applause, before I stepped upon this earth. So let the numbers fluctuate, let the followers divide, I got something way more solid than a trend that peaks online. I was trying to write the blueprint, He was writing through the pressure, I called certain chapters losses — He was building me a message. Every detour had a reason, every pause had something hidden, Sometimes God makes you wait because the thing ain't what you pictured. I wanted instant answers, He was teaching me endurance, Wanted Him to change the world, He started changing me first. That's a different kind of miracle, different kind of elevation, When you stop demanding signs and start recognizing transformation. Now I put the faith inside the rhythm, truth inside the drums, Every time I beat the darkness, I remember where I'm from. I don't claim to have it mastered, I'm still learning as I grow, But when life turns into smoke — **God still knows where I go.** **[CHORUS]** We rise beyond the smoke, where the truth get told They can build a cage outta concrete and gold I done seen light shine where the cold wind blow Head high, eyes open — **beyond the smoke** We rise beyond the smoke, where the fake can’t go Pain turned pressure, now the spirit got soul Every loss taught lessons that the heart can hold Now I’m looking past the clouds — **beyond the smoke** [VERSE 3 — BLACKSONIX] BLACKSONIX, look back, clouds black, no air Stack phonics, attack thoughts, opps unaware They went low, I go lower, ego goes bare Stepping stone flow just to trip on da stair Downfall echoes left right as the sounds call From the window to the wall to the town hall Inside fallin, fake pride calling Breakbeat balling but the spirit stay stalling Revelation came quiet right before the fire riot Elevation on a diet until I had to try it Incentive to savor the flavor of the Almighty Defense behavior no longer taken lightly Changed gas face to gas mask while Holy smokin Running through flames, waking souls, wid no jokin Sway in divine breezes, bless you at da sneezes Seize this moment as God pleases **[OUTRO]** *(Beat fades — piano remains)* “Rise above the chaos…” “Look higher…” *(Scratch)* “Beyond the smoke…” **SILL-E.**
