Cardellhicks

[Verse]
Born in the gutter where the shadows don't sleep,
Cardellhicks cookin' heat in the belly of the beast.
Fingers greasy from the paper, no butter, just stacks,
Spit truth like the preacher but the choir don't clap.

Brick by brick, build a castle from the scraps,
Took L's in the dark, now my wins overlap.
Hustle loud, but the grind stay mute,
Voice sharp, cut the air like a stolen flute.

[Chorus]
Cardellhicks, Cardellhicks, name ring bells,
Climbing from the dirt, only time gon' tell.
Cardellhicks, Cardellhicks, scars on my soul,
Every verse a diamond from the pressure and the coal.

[Verse 2]
City talk slick, whispers ride the breeze,
Snakes in the grass tryna bite at my knees.
Heart cold, veins pumpin' antifreeze,
Dreams stretch wide like the branches on trees.

From the cracks in the concrete, I rose,
Dirt on my kicks, but my aura still glows.
Keep my circle tighter than a noose on foes,
Eyes on the prize, never froze, ten toes.

[Bridge]
Cardellhicks a storm, can’t weather the wrath,
Cross my path, leave 'em lost in the aftermath.
No map, no compass, just the fire in my chest,
Cardellhicks, the name etched where legends rest.
