Verse 1
A
I made this
How could you hate this
Or would you fake this
Out of love
In my face (yeah)
You better think twice
'Cause this here ain't fake ice
I get love from the top
They told me "Baby
You're not gon' flop"
Told me "We can't wait to see you at the top"
And we know you're not gon' stop
They told me "It's just the beginning"
"I know you're not finished
"

Bridge
I was in my room with the lights down low
No chain, no stage, just a heart and a goal
Every "no" that I heard put a flame in my soul
Now they all sing along to the stories I told
Overworked, underslept, but I never let go
All the tears that I shed, they just watered my growth
If they never believed, I believed even more
Now I'm breaking the ceiling, kicking down every door
Final Chorus
A
I made this
From the pain, from the nights that were faithless
From the doubt when the path looked shapeless
Now the sky only knows what my aim is
A,
I made this
How could you hate this
Or would you fake this
Out of love, yeah, we rose from the basements
Final Post-Chorus
A,
I made this
Say my name when the whole crowd raises
All the lights, all the hands, all the faces
Out of love, out of love, we gon' stay lit
A,
I made this
Play it back, let the whole world praise this
From the bottom to the top, we changed this
Out of love, out of love, and oh yeah,
A,
I made this.
