Same Scars, New Chains (έκδοση 2)

Intro

Same scars, new chains, yeah

Kastro

Still counting, still climbing

(let's get it)

Verse

Four a.m., streetlight buzzing like a livewire

Same block, same crack in the concrete, higher

Momma prayed the rosary while I prayed on a corner

Learned to read the room before I learned the order

Scar on my knuckle from a door that wouldn't open

Kicked it down anyway, kept my ambition open

Cousin said slow down, I said watch me speed up

Empty pockets used to laugh, now they read up

Studied every hustle like a language I was fluent

Turned the block noise into something more astute and

Sharper than the pain that used to keep me sleepless

Now I count the blessings that used to count me clueless

Same scars on my wrist from the belt and the buckle

New chains on my neck, watch the ice make it chuckle

Still the same kid ducking bullets in the hallway

Now I'm ducking envy walking down the runway

Chorus

Same scars, new chains, still the same vein

Still the same fire, still the same flame

Broke down the door, now I'm building the frame

Same scars, new chains, I ain't changed my name

Verse

Momma's kitchen table, bills stacked like a fortress

Turned that stress into a blueprint, called it progress

Every "no" I got was just a comma, not a period

Kept writing my story when the pen felt inferior

Sirens used to be my lullaby at midnight

Now they just background noise while I'm counting my highlight

Trap house turned to a studio, same four walls

Different kind of product moving, different kind of calls

I remember pawning chains just to eat that Tuesday

Now the pawn shop owner asking could he get a new play

Scar tissue built different, callous where I'm tender

Still remember cold nights sleeping by the heater

Uncle told me "figure it out, don't beg for handouts"

Took that to the grave and turned it to a landout

Same block still watching, same eyes on the window

Different kid inside now, same fire in his shadow

Chorus

Same scars, new chains, still the same vein

Still the same fire, still the same flame

Broke down the door, now I'm building the frame

Same scars, new chains, I ain't changed my name

Bridge

They ask me how I made it look effortless

I say the pain just taught me how to press forward

Every scar's a receipt for what I paid

Every chain's a reason that I never stayed afraid

I ain't the same but I remember every hour

Still pray before I count it, still respect the power

No matter how the ice shine, how the whip glide

I still hear that same block singing me to sleep at night

Outro

Same scars, new chains

Still the same name

Still counting, still climbing

Kastro, we ain't changed
