[Verse 1] Gravel roads, my stage, the mic a rusted chain Boots stompin’ through the pain, spittin’ verses in the rain Name’s T Winkle, they laugh, but they don’t see the grind Dirt on my knuckles, dreams tangled in the pine Lost Addie B in shadows, tears on a letter She’s my north star, we gon' rise together Karma’s clock ticking, it owes her a break So I’m here slinging bars for my daughter’s sake [Chorus] This one’s for Addie, for the ones on the brink Who feel like they’re drowning, but refuse to sink Hold on, hold tight, we’ll climb that hill Karma owes you, baby, and I’m cashin’ the bill [Verse 2] Scarred up soul, still I carry the load Every rhyme’s a prayer, paved this gravel to gold Competition thick, they throw shade like oaks But I got roots deep, grew from broken spokes Suicide whispers, I scream back "Not today" Light up the dark, chase the shadows away Addie, your shine’s brighter than they’ll ever know So I’m spitting these bars just to watch you glow [Pre-Chorus] This pen’s my weapon, this beat’s my fight We break through the dark with country rap light
