[Intro: M-Nizzle]
Yeah…
It’s them cold nights…
Real pain in this one
M-Nizzle, Polo G
Let’s talk to ‘em
[Hook: M-Nizzle]
Cold nights, I was prayin’ for the sunlight
Tears fallin’, couldn’t sleep, had to hold tight
Dreams in my head, pain deep in my chest
But I never gave in, I was built for the test
Lost some day ones, that’s the price of the game
Now I ride for the fam, I don’t care 'bout the fame
Hard times made me, broke days changed me
All I had was faith, let the struggle raise me
Now I'm up, but I started from the floor
Every scar tell a story that I can't ignore
Cold nights, but I came out with more
[Verse 1: M-Nizzle]
I was trappin’ in the cold, heart frozen from the loss
Had to get it on my own, no matter what it cost
Mama cryin' in the kitchen, bills stackin’ high
Had to hustle every second, couldn’t let my dreams die
Got my back to the wall, but my mind stayed sharp
I was broke in the dark, but I kept that spark
See the fake love fade, only real ones ride
Put my pain in these bars, let the truth never hide
Now they watchin’ how I move, but they ain’t seen the grind
[Hook: M-Nizzle]
Cold nights, I was prayin’ for the sunlight
Tears fallin’, couldn’t sleep, had to hold tight
Dreams in my head, pain deep in my chest
But I never gave in, I was built for the test
Lost some day ones, that’s the price of the game
Now I ride for the fam, I don’t care 'bout the fame
Hard times made me, broke days changed me
All I had was faith, let the struggle raise me
Now I'm up, but I started from the floor
Every scar tell a story that I can't ignore
Cold nights, but I came out with more
[Verse 2: Polo G]
I was sleepin’ on the floor, now it’s marble on the tile
Still remember hunger pains, had me stressin’ every mile
Seen my brother do a bid, mama screamin' on the line
I was duckin’ from the sirens, I was tryna dodge time
Yeah, fuck them fake homies, only call when you up
They ain't care when I was broke, they ain't give a single fuck
Now I’m thumbin’ through the racks, but the pain still here
Pourin' Henny for my fallen ones, lost so many peers
Had to mask up the pain, I was trappin’ in the cold
Had a 30 in the stash, case the drama unfold
I was prayin' for a blessing, only God heard the cries
Now I’m flexin’ in the foreign, but my soul still cries
I been stabbed in the back, got my guard on lock
Even family turn foe when you risin’ to the top
They don't know about them nights when the heat ain’t work
When your stomach hit your spine and your pride get hurt
Had to rob just to eat, had to scheme for the rent
Now it’s M’s on the line every time I vent
Yeah, from the mud, bitch I made it out alive
But I still got the trauma that I carry in my ride
[Hook: M-Nizzle]
Cold nights, I was prayin’ for the sunlight
Tears fallin’, couldn’t sleep, had to hold tight
Dreams in my head, pain deep in my chest
But I never gave in, I was built for the test
Lost some day ones, that’s the price of the game
Now I ride for the fam, I don’t care 'bout the fame
Hard times made me, broke days changed me
All I had was faith, let the struggle raise me
Now I'm up, but I started from the floor
Every scar tell a story that I can't ignore
Cold nights, but I came out with more
[Verse 3: M-Nizzle]
Now they see me on them screens, think this shit came easy
But I was grindin’ through the pain, where the nights got greasy
Had a vision in the dark, lit the fire in my soul
Turned my trauma to a weapon, now I’m takin’ control
Never bent, never folded, I was cut from steel
Put my faith in the hustle, now the numbers real
I remember every doubt, every side eye glance
Now they tryna shake my hand, but I ain’t givin’ a chance
Cold world, gotta move like a king with no fear
If you ain't built for the storm, then don’t come near
I lost love, lost hope, but I found my lane
Now I’m countin’ up blessings while they drown in pain
Could’ve quit, but I rose, now I’m holdin' the crown
From them nights in the gutter to this bossed up sound
Yeah, I earned every stripe, had to fight to survive
This that anthem for the ones still tryna stay alive
[Hook: M-Nizzle]
Cold nights, I was prayin’ for the sunlight
Tears fallin’, couldn’t sleep, had to hold tight
Dreams in my head, pain deep in my chest
But I never gave in, I was built for the test
Lost some day ones, that’s the price of the game
Now I ride for the fam, I don’t care 'bout the fame
Hard times made me, broke days changed me
All I had was faith, let the struggle raise me
Now I'm up, but I started from the floor
Every scar tell a story that I can't ignore
Cold nights, but I came out with more
