lyrics

Scars a badge of honor
Made it through the Crucible
Your time is now quit thinking about what you used to do
Made it through the Crucible
Made it through the Crucible
Scars a badge of honor
Made it through the Crucible
Your time is now quit thinking about what you used to do
Made it through the Crucible
Made it through the Crucible

These tribulations tough, they won't pass the litmus
If pain is poetic, then I'm sadomasochistic
I get rush or thrill whenever proving all the doubters wrong
Destructive will, silence, kill that noise once I start sounding off
Efforts, earnest respect my sermons won't cross sides
I'm tested, learned his epidermis is rawhide
Gritty, resistant, chatter just quit dismiss it
Relentless, I won't slip or be battered into submission
No pat on backs or handouts, still pursuit this recklessly
The dog in him unleashed, don't you misconstrue my pedigree
I lit the fuse, a beacon in the darkness that our fellas need
Invincible, this author's thoughts will dart across the seven seas

Scars a badge of honor
Made it through the Crucible
Your time is now quit thinking about what you used to do
Made it through the Crucible
Made it through the Crucible
Scars a badge of honor
Made it through the Crucible
Your time is now quit thinking about what you used to do
Made it through the Crucible
Made it through the Crucible

My number one hype man, not being facetious
Forever crunch time but it's only me in the bleachers
Carrying Terra baring' it air it is Ayn Randian
Rarely compare me, daring apparent because I stand to win
This a crucible, it is brutal regardless
But I'm immovable, music fuels my catharsis
Hard hits, fear, doubt and love expressed messily
Built an empire on tears, blood, and sweat equity
Always was a conduit I been housing power
An outlier now y'all hear these ten thousand hours
I ain't special, I just refuse to lose
It was a maze but engaged when braving that crucible
