Gold in the Ashes (wersja 2)

Intro

Gold in the ashes where the old streetlights stand

Verse 1

Corner store still keeps a tab that don't get paid

Four years running on faith and not much more to trade

Every check I wrote to clear it, I was praying for the grace

Chorus

Same block rising, gold in the ashes now

Smoke from the old burnouts turning soft and slow

Verse 2

Fire shut down that liquor store at three a.m.

Nobody fought for what they got — nobody learned yet —

Pre-Chorus

Now every scar on this face is currency I carry

Every debt we cleared was someone else's weight to bear

Chorus

Same block rising, gold in the ashes now

Smoke from the old burnouts turning soft and slow

Verse 3

Cousin made a name writing verses by the block lamp

Signed with blood instead of ink like it was a bond to keep

Pre-Chorus

Now every scar on this face is currency I carry

Every debt we cleared was someone else's weight to bear

Bridge

We ain't the ones who lit the match, but we built through the smoke

Learned that falling down can turn you into gold — it just takes time to soak

Chorus

Same block rising, gold in the ashes now

Smoke from the old burnouts turning soft and slow

Outro

Gold in the ashes

Same block, new light
