Intro

The rain just stopped on the block tonight Sun hitting the wet pavement like a spotlight No more looking through the glass with a heavy chest Just realized your win is my soul at rest

Verse 1

I used to count the crumbs, now we bake the whole bread My brother signed the deed, put a roof over his head I’m grinning at his keys like they’re hanging in my hand Success is only sweet when it’s shared across the land I finally caught my breath, found the rhythm in my stride No more swallowing the bitterness I used to hide He called me from the office with the news of the raise We spent the whole night lost in a celebratory haze

Pre-chorus

The tide is coming in for the whole harbor tonight Every single lighthouse is catching the same light Your victory is fuel, yeah, it’s adding to my fire We’re pulling each other up, taking the wire higher

Chorus

We got crowns on the whole couch Ain’t no room for a shadow or a doubt If you eating, then I’m full, that’s the code Sharing every heavy gold brick on the road

Verse 2

My sister graduated, Mom is finally retired Watching them relax is all the wealth I ever desired The corner store got bought by a local with a dream Seeing the block flourish, that’s the ultimate scheme New park on the west side where the concrete used to crack The youth got a place now, we finally gave it back I’m clapping till my palms burn for every small win That’s how you keep the light from ever growing thin

Bridge

Woke up with clear lungs, no smoke in the air First time in a decade I can actually care My mind is a sanctuary, quiet and still That’s a victory no paper chase could ever fill

Verse 3

I’m planting these seeds for a tree I’ll never climb Leaving something better for the kids in due time My health is the wealth, I’m alive and I’m present Turning every bitter memory into something pleasant We’ve moved past the hunger, now we’re feeding the soul Making sure the broken pieces finally feel whole When the world gets a win, I’m a part of the team Waking up together in the middle of the dream

Chorus

We got crowns on the whole couch Ain’t no room for a shadow or a doubt If you eating, then I’m full, that’s the code Sharing every heavy gold brick on the road

Bridge

It’s a championship parade on every single street Every heart in the city finding the same beat From the porch to the penthouse, we all taking flight Everything is heavy gold and everything is right

Chorus

We got crowns on the whole couch Ain’t no room for a shadow or a doubt If you eating, then I’m full, that’s the code Sharing every heavy gold brick on the road

Outro

We all wearing the jewels now No need to ever take ‘em off or take bows Just peace in the pocket and love in the chest The whole circle winning, yeah, that’s the true test
