Rags to Riches (Remastered x2)

[Intro: Rap] Yeah… Sometimes you gotta lose everything just to gain somethin’. This for the ones who know what it feel like… To fight, and still lose, but keep goin’. [Chorus: R&B Singer] Came from the bottom, I was fightin’ through the rain, Tears on my pillow, tryna numb out all the pain. They don’t know the nights I cried, they don’t know the cost I paid, From the rags to the riches, I was built for better days. [Verse 1: Rap] Uh, lights off in the crib, I was sittin’ in the dark, Stomach touchin’ my ribs, couldn’t even find a spark. Used to pray for a blessing, but my faith fell apart, How you keep your head high when the world break your heart? They don’t know the struggle, how it eats at your soul, Tryna smile through the hunger, tryna fight to stay whole. Had a dream, but they laughed, said I’d never see the glow, Now I’m sittin’ at the table, eatin’ meals they can’t afford. Mama workin’ doubles, we was barely makin’ rent, I was out here takin’ risks, just to stretch every cent. Friends turned foes, I was broke and they went, Now they watch me rise, all that fake love spent. [Chorus: R&B Singer] Came from the bottom, I was fightin’ through the rain, Tears on my pillow, tryna numb out all the pain. They don’t know the nights I cried, they don’t know the cost I paid, From the rags to the riches, I was built for better days. [Verse 2: Rap] Uh, I remember cold nights, barely had no heat, Wearin’ holes in my sneakers, but I stayed on my feet. Every “no” that I heard made the fire in me steep, Had to fight for my life while the wolves tried to eat. Saw my brother lose himself, tryna cope with the load, Saw my sister wipe her tears as the doors kept closed. I was drownin’ in the pressure, no one threw me a rope, Had to climb out that pit, man, I did it on hope. Every L that I took put a crack in my heart, Had me screamin’ at the ceiling, feelin’ torn apart. But that pain became power, now I’m built like a spark, Turned the dark into light, now I’m glowin’ like art. [Bridge: R&B Singer (with ad-libs)] Ohhh, they don’t know the nights I prayed (nights I prayed), I was broken, I was chained. But the fire in my soul (fire in my soul), Kept me fightin’, made me whole. Ohhh, I lost friends, lost time, (lost it all) Lost my mind on this climb. But I found somethin’ deep inside, And I knew I’d survive, yeah. [Chorus: R&B Singer] Came from the bottom, I was fightin’ through the rain, Tears on my pillow, tryna numb out all the pain. They don’t know the nights I cried, they don’t know the cost I paid, From the rags to the riches, I was built for better days. [Outro: Rap & R&B Singer] (Rap) Yeah, scars on my soul, but they made me a king, Now the chains I used to wear turn to gold on my ring. I’m a testament to pain, every loss had to sting, But I rose from the ashes, now my anthem gon’ sing. (Singer) Ohhh, yeah, I made it out the rain (made it out the rain), I was lost but found my way.
