Heart of a Phoenix (feat. Mac-G)

[Verse – August Wild]

Life’s been going well

Blessings all around

I wanna say I’m sorry to my broken inner child

I know you did your best so you could never let me down

You can rest now

And don’t you be afraid

The life we always wanted’s on the other side of brave

I promise not to let your sacrifices die in vain

The life we livin now is from all that we overcame

And we overcame a lot alotta homies overlook

They like to judge me by my cover when they never held book

Im booking round trip flights with my wife overseas homie

Doing everything your soul selling can’t achieve homie

I was at a point in life

Where I ain’t see the point in life

The lesson that I learned

Was doing less will give you more in life

But why?

That was not a lesson about trying

But not to put your energy where everyone’s denying

Who you are, who you want to be, and all that you’ll become

Doesn’t matter who you’ve been

Cause who you’ve been is said and done

I’m done pretending cause pretending only got me half ass

Friendships, memories, and everything that never lasts

[Verse – NittyGritty]

Forreally on 10 toes and 2 feet

I really just mischose my whole team

Forever I indulge and smoke tree

Now I close the curtains, introverted don’t approach me

I’m comin from nothin but stay a hunnid

Goin 80 in a 40 I’m rushin like I was wanted

I’m trynna beat the system trynna uppercut it

The money not abundant so pressure was repercussion

Head spinnin just thinkin bout it I feel the deep concussion

A diamond in the dirt when I’m in public

She taking off her shirt she trynna flaunt it

But under the surface we just both hurtin from broken promises

I don’t wanna be rude you twisted I keep it honest

I keep it a buck 1 on 1 with you like I was YannisRedemption song like a Marley her head is Bobbin

The heart of phoenix rose from the ashes I’m just a carcass

[Refrain – Mac-G]

They been trynna bring me down but I’m still gon rise

Old friends talkin with a head full of lies

Never stay grounded when you live in the skies

[Verse – Mac-G]

Couldn’t face me in a ring , but wanna see me in a box

I’m never 6 deep, I stand lonely at the top 

Most can extend a lie until the day they caught 

I call it a deadline, no longer got what you want 

See Yall redundant, I release you of your service 

Work on developing your skills, while collecting unemployment 

That’s the only time you cashing checks, Independent Big boss, I’m gaining percentage, check the volume, we calling big shots 

Whiskey flow, see I’m a straight shooter

Precise aim, when I’m in my pocket, like im playing billiards 

I saved the number, Multi millionaire in the making, I’m calling it, 

fresh outta luck, see I bet on my worth, I’m going all in 

See I bask in the light, whenever the mics on

Ain’t no tan lines from these bars, With all this ice on

A passionate Icon, something you couldn’t try on 

My heart is flame resistant, so I leave the fire on
