Bleed into Gold 2 (wersja 2)

Verse

Corner store was Mr. Patel's open-end loan

Wore the same brown suit till his gold chain shone

Every birthday came with a wrapped up care package

Broke-down car got a coat of primer in exchange

I carried my momma to every single hearing

She'd come out shaken, said

Pre-Chorus

Now I'm counting the minutes left on this block

The same streets that taught me how to hustle, now they talk

Chorus

Bleed into gold when the sun comes up slow

Every scar is currency that don't nobody know

Bleed into gold through the blood and the pain

This is my inheritance, not a stain

I keep it on the skin like a name on a sign

Bleed into gold, this is how I'm gonna shine

Verse 2

Auntie said

(she ain't never asked for nothing in return)

Gave me a recipe in a hand-written book with stains from the floor

Said 'when you make it out, give back to those who kept score

Fifty years on that corner, same smile, same stare

Same four walls, different picture frame, I'm walking through air

Pre-Chorus

Now I'm counting the minutes left on this block

The same streets that taught me how to hustle, now they talk

Chorus

Bleed into gold when the sun comes up slow

Every scar is currency that don't nobody know

Bleed into gold through the blood and the pain

This is my inheritance, not a stain

I keep it on the skin like a name on a sign

Bleed into gold, this is how I'm gonna shine

Bridge

So they can say 'he done came up' and all that noise

But in my chest, this corner's still a choice

Not some nostalgia I'm nostalgic for

This right here, this is the real work

I ain't leaving nobody behind, I'm just rearranging how we stand

Chorus

Bleed into gold when the sun comes up slow

Every scar is currency that don't nobody know

Bleed into gold through the blood and the pain

This is my inheritance, not a stain

I keep it on the skin like a name on a sign

Bleed into gold, this is how I'm gonna shine

Outro

Bleed into gold, still bleeding in my veins

I came up outta here but never left these streets' claims
