“They don’t fold,” they say about me—steel in the soul, gold in the reach.

“Late again, still lands on his feet,” myth on the tongue, legend in speech.

Sneakers shine in their storyline, [(eye-roll)] not the scuffs I keep.

They call me “clockwork champion,” [(pause)] as if I never sleep.

“Self-made.” “Up late.” “Cold grind.” “No breaks.”

Pull-quotes stitched to my name like plates.

Comments: “chaos kid,” “plot armor, please.”

Bio says “never fold.” [(shrug)] Receipts say “keys.”

Bounce back— I don’t fold.

Turn small coins into gold.

My rhythm’s steel, but it feels like soul;

I hit bonus mode like an arcade roll.

No fold (no fold), go gold (go gold)

I woke up late with a plan half-lit;

stepped on a dream—still didn’t quit.

Sneakers scuff; they kiss concrete;

second hand hot—time drums my feet.

Spilled my coffee; shirt took the stain;

missed one bus, cut through the rain.

Wrong turn flipped—now it’s my street;

I breathe once, set my teeth. [(breathe)]

“On-time? Rare.” “Workrate? High.”

Screenshots show the where and why.

One line: “chaos.” One line: “calm.”

Both true. I sign it with my palm.

Bounce back— I don’t fold.

Turn small coins into gold.

My rhythm’s steel, but it feels like soul;

I hit bonus mode like an arcade roll.

[()] no fold / go gold

Call me chaos; I call it aim.

Trip → coil → launch the same.

Every slip is stored as spring;

pull, release—watch it sing. [(quiet)]

I took the L and I made it art;

mapped that scar to a brand-new start.

Sweat inks letters across my frame;

spray my tag—win wears my name.

Not your myth, not your headline mold—

I’m the breath that keeps its hold.

Bounce back— I don’t fold.

Turn small coins into gold.

My rhythm’s steel, but it feels like soul;

I hit bonus mode like an arcade roll.

[()] press start / new day

Dreams underfoot, still warm, still bright.

Scuffs don’t lie; they write my light. [(end)]
