🎙️ INTRO — From the bottom (Low whispers, distant sirens, slow piano) Bet… bet… bet… bet on me… On me… on me… on me… I used to look down, couldn't look in the mirror, Asking for help, but the future looked unclear. Mentally tired, financially stressed, Kept giving my all, still felt like less. (Beat stops) But GOD said, “Son, get your head up!” SCRAPPY-DEE! I'M BETTING ON ME NOW! Skrrt! Skrrt! 💯 🔥 HOOK — I BET ON ME NOW I BET ON ME NOW! 💯 I got my confidence back! Used to walk with my head down, now I'm right on track! Lost jobs, changed jobs, they could throw me away, But God gave me purpose, now I'm making my way! I BET ON ME NOW! Ain't no stopping my growth! Got my act together, put my faith in the most! Jesus save me! Help me stand on my own! I'm building my future, I'm reclaiming my throne! (Whispers panning left and right) Bet, bet, bet, bet on me! On me, on me, on me! Bet, bet, bet, bet on me! Skrrt! Skrrt! THAT'S THE NEW ME! 🎤 VERSE 1 — Nobody saw my worth I asked for some help, couldn't handle it alone, Mental weight on my shoulders, bills stacking at home, I was fighting my battles where nobody could see, Wondering if anybody believed in me. I lost jobs, switched jobs, kept trying again, Felt expendable, like I never fit in, Gave my sweat and my time, put my heart in the place, Still felt unappreciated, like I took up no space. Every time I got knocked down, I questioned my worth, Had my eyes on the ground, couldn't see what I was worth, Kept looking for approval from the people around, Till I realized my value wasn't theirs to write down! I was waiting for somebody to come rescue my life, While I battled my doubts in the middle of the night, Then I turned toward God, said, “Show me the way,” Now I'm betting on myself, starting fresh today! (Background whispers) Bet on me… bet on me… Head up… head up… Skrrt! Skrrt! 💥 BEAT DROP — Confidence at 100 (Distorted bass growl, Memphis-style chant, hard drums) ONE HUNDRED! — THAT'S MY CONFIDENCE! ONE HUNDRED! — I KNOW WHAT MY PURPOSE IS! No more living like my life doesn't matter! Built myself back up, now I'm moving up the ladder! Bet! Bet! Bet! Bet on me! On me! On me! On me! Skrrt! Skrrt! Skrrt! S-D-E! WE BACK IN THE BUILDING! I ain't chasing validation, I'm fulfilling God's vision! 🎤 VERSE 2 — God changed my vision Now I'm looking up, got my eyes on the prize, Got a different kind of fire burning deep inside, I ain't saying life is easy, still got bills to pay, But I won't let yesterday determine today. I had doubts in my mind, thought I wasn't enough, Had to learn being strong doesn't mean acting tough, Sometimes asking for help is the strongest thing you do, You can fight for your future and admit you're hurting too. Financial pressure had me feeling so small, Mental battles in the silence, I was close to the wall, But I reached out for help, started facing my fears, Now I'm building my confidence, changing my years. Jesus save me, give me strength to proceed, Help me separate my wants from the things that I need, Let Your purpose guide my steps, let Your wisdom lead, I'm investing in myself, planting every seed! I don't need to prove my worth to the ones who walked away, I'm focused on the man that I'm becoming every day, Got my act together, putting faith into action, Scrappy-Dee's alive, and the world gets a fraction! (Whispered background, growing louder) Bet, bet, bet, bet on me! On me, on me, on me! Bet, bet, bet, bet on me! GOD'S GOT A PURPOSE FOR ME! 🎶 BRIDGE — Rap/R&B emotional switch (Beat strips down to piano, smooth melodic vocals) I didn't believe in myself… Couldn't see the strength I had inside. I needed help, I needed hope, Needed faith to turn the tide. Now I'm standing a little taller, Got a vision I can see. I'm not waiting on the world to choose me… I'm choosing to believe in me. Jesus, save me, keep me strong, Help me know where I belong. Every setback taught me something, Now I'm moving forward, carrying on. 🔥 FINAL HOOK — SDE ANTHEM I BET ON ME NOW! 💯 Put the whole world on notice! God gave me purpose, now I'm focused! Head up high, got my confidence back! I survived all the losses, now I'm staying on track! I BET ON ME NOW! Hear the bassline pound! Used to look at my feet, now I'm standing my ground! Jesus save me! Keep my feet on the road! I'm not who I was — WATCH THIS NEW ME UNFOLD! (Background whispers over the beat) Bet! Bet! Bet! Bet on me! On me! On me! On me! Bet! Bet! Bet! Bet on me! Skrrt! Skrrt! Skrrt! I BET ON ME NOW! OUTRO Head up, eyes forward (Deep voice over fading 808s) To everybody who's ever felt expendable… To everybody who's asked for help and felt ashamed… To everybody who's been knocked down so many times they stopped believing in themselves… You're not worthless because somebody failed to appreciate you. You're not weak because you needed help. You can ask for support and still bet on yourself. I'm Scrappy-Dee. God's still working on me. My confidence is building. My purpose is unfolding. I BET on me
