Since Birth (War Ready)

I’m a product of the struggle, born fightin' for my breath, Every threat turn to hustle, every loss turn to death. Got a target on my back, but I move without fear, ’Cause the pain made me sharper—cut steel with my tears. Enemies wanna test me, but they fold when I rise, Talk tough on the surface, but I see through the lies. Never trust no snitch, never bend, never switch, Put the pressure on my shoulders, made a king out a shit. Street life, no sleep—paranoia in my veins, Got the devil on my heels tryna drag me into chains. But I’m built for war—heart cold, mind vicious, I don’t pray for peace… I pray my enemies witness. I’m a ridah, born in the flames (flames), Never back down, never break from the pain (pain). All this pressure on my name, but I carry it the same— If they lookin’ for a soldier, let ’em say my name. I’m a ridah, wounds on my soul (soul), Turned every dark night into fire in my bones (bones). Try to stop me? Better tighten up your aim— ’Cause I’m war ready since birth, I don’t fold, I don’t fuckin change. Street prophets in my ear say I’m chosen for the climb, Enemies want me dead, but they runnin’ outta time. Got a mind full of trauma, made a weapon outta rage, If life is just a test, then I’m bustin’ out the cage. Police watchin’, killers plottin’, fake friends talkin’ slick, World full of snakes, but I move too quick. Never trust a handshake, never trust a new face— If loyalty ain’t real, I erase that trace. Money, power, respect—three burdens I carry, If the reaper come for me, he gon’ see I’m hard to bury. 'Cause I’m forged in the violence, baptized in the dirt, All the misery is a lesson, gotta know your worth. I’m a ridah, born in the flames (flames), Never back down, never break from the pain (pain). All this pressure on my name, but I carry it the same— If they lookin’ for a soldier, let ’em say my name. I’m a ridah, wounds on my soul (soul), Turned every dark night into fire in my bones (bones). Try to stop me? Better tighten up your aim— ’Cause I’m war ready since birth, I don’t fold, I don’t fuckin change. See, you can’t kill a man who ain’t afraid to die... You can’t break a soldier who been broken his whole fuckin life... So if it’s war you want— Then let’s ride till a muthafucka die. Born a ridah… Died a ridah… Outlaw coded in my essence forever.
