Intro
Real muscle... yeah, built with the crew. Used to see strangers, now I see the squad.
Verse 1
Sunrise hittin' the block, 5 AM drills, World sleepin', we grindin' for real. Shaker cups clinkin', chalk on the plans, Street paradise, blueprint in our hands. Used to chase highs on corner nights, Now buildin' empires under streetlights. Meal prep for the team, boxes stacked tight, Plantin' seeds with the ones who fight.
Pre-chorus
They don't see the losses, the late-night calls. They just see the wins with the real ones standin' tall.
Chorus
They ask how we did it, Loyal. This ain't luck, we lived it, Loyal. From the block up, we get it, Loyal. Mirror muscle, yeah we built it. Real ones! Stay down! Yeah!
Verse 2
Remember hidin' in hoodies, dodgin' the doubt, Now the crew tailored sharp, no way out. Shoulders hold the weight, bonds cuttin' through, Different squad, from the streets we grew. Loyalty's the ink, the come-up's the art, Played the long game, never fell apart. Every hustle rep, every trap set, Promise to the real, no regrets yet.
Chorus
They ask how we did it, Loyal. This ain't luck, we lived it, Loyal. From the block up, we get it, Loyal. Mirror muscle, yeah we built it. Locked in! Crew! Energy doubles stack
Bridge 1
Looked in the mirror, saw what we could be. Put the work in with the day ones, now we're finally free. Wasn't 'bout the cash, it was 'bout the will. Found our squad reflection, holdin' down still.
Verse 3
Walk in the spot, the vibe just shifts, Not flexin' fake, from the bottom lifts. Built this muscle from the concrete, brick by brick, Quiet power with the crew, that's the click. They see the glow-up, miss the block grind, The fake ones we left, the real ones we find. This ain't for the feed, this is for the soul, Crew in control, finally whole.
Bridge 2
The come-up's long. The streets test deep. But real ones keep the promises we keep!
Chorus
They ask how we did it, Loyal. This ain't luck, we lived it, Loyal. From the block up, we get it, Loyal. Mirror muscle, yeah we built it. Real ones! Stay down! Yeah!
Outro
Reflection's solid now. Yeah. Built with the real.
