Triune - Concrete Rose Lyrics

How can something from the bottom
Turn out beautiful
We took chances
There was no other way to grow
Had to break the cycle of life
And what we know
Made it through the cracks
And blossom like concrete rose
From the concrete

Made it from nothing to something
My nigga we did it
Circumventing the circumstance
And still get to the chicken
Ensuring financial literacy
Get to the children
So we teach em bout life and
How to out pivot the pilgrim
I was taught
If you ain't come from a rich family
Create one
So I'm on my road to the riches
But with my day ones
I respect action, not words
So I don't say much
Any response validates them
And means that they won
Growing up niggas was different from me
My struggle was cultural
They had to live with the streets
My great grandfather was murked over political beef
Wouldn't of been no America for me if shit was so sweet
But uh...we made lemonade out of lemons
And built up heaven gates out of lessons
Never deny the blessings
But no question
We grinded for what was destined
Real niggas gotta respect it
Concrete

How can something from the bottom
Turn out beautiful
We took chances
There was no other way to grow
Had to break the cycle of life
And what we know
Made it through the cracks
And blossom like concrete rose
From the concrete

If you judge a book by the cover
You missing the point
If you fail to listen
You may also enter a void
I been through the pain
It's time that we get to the joy
Building a fortress
To give levels to get to the boy
Grown up
Do grown stuff
I don't answer my phone much
They still paying back for the Cold Crush
They still fronting like they don't know us
Which make no sense
Cause I see the hate come when we go up
Concrete

How can something from the bottom
Turn out beautiful
We took chances
There was no other way to grow
Had to break the cycle of life
And what we know
Made it through the cracks
And blossom like concrete rose
From the concrete
