“Shoebox to Stocks (Pain Made Me)”
“Shoebox to Stocks (Pain Made Me)” (Intro – Yeah… Pain talk… Real life, no gimmicks… Vna$ty… I was born ready to die… now I’m learnin’ how to live… (Hook – From a shoebox stash to investin’ in stocks, From wastin’ my time to watchin’ the clock, Pain made me—yeah it sharpened my aim, Truth in my bars, I ain’t spittin’ for fame. From a dark past livin’ fast, full of sin, Now I’m fightin’ for the youth, tryna keep ‘em out the pen, Yeah I lost years I can’t rewind or replace, Now I’m speakin’ through these bars, every scar got a face. (Verse 1 – I was drownin’ in a bottle, hollow mind full of toxins, Pop another pill just to feel like I’m locked in, Clock spin—wasted days, faded ways, livin’ reckless, Self-destruction had me stuck in a phase, feelin’ helpless. Fiendin’ for a high, I was blind to the damage, Time vanish—life slippin’ right outta my hand, kid. Every bad decision left a permanent stain, Now I’m livin’ with the guilt and the burden of pain. I ain’t glorify the drugs or the liquor I abused, I was losin’ everythin’ I was gifted, I confused The illusion of escape with the cage I was buildin’, Now I’m dealin’ with the scars, every memory still killin’. But I flipped it—pain pivoted into ambition, God gave me vision, now I’m speakin’ with precision, No fiction—every bar is a piece of my soul, I don’t lie in my rhymes, I just bleed what I know. (Hook – From a shoebox stash to investin’ in stocks, From wastin’ my time to watchin’ the clock, Pain made me—yeah it sharpened my aim, Truth in my bars, I ain’t spittin’ for fame. From a dark past livin’ fast, full of sin, Now I’m fightin’ for the youth, tryna keep ‘em out the pen, Yeah I lost years I can’t rewind or replace, Now I’m speakin’ through these bars, every scar got a face. (Verse 2 – Jail ain’t a game, it’s a grave with a schedule, 23 and 1, man, that solitude’ll test you, Metal doors slammin’, echo pain in the section, Learned lessons every second, no protection, just tension. Wake up 5:30, cold water on my face, Another day erased, still thinkin’ ‘bout my case, Heart racin’, time slow, feel the weight of regret, Every step I ever took led me straight to this set. Concrete thoughts, iron bars got me boxed in, Locked in—replayin’ every loss I was caught in, Mind haunted by the choices I was makin’, Now I’m breakin’ out mentally, no more fakin’. I seen brothers lose they mind, lose they soul in the system, No wisdom, just cycles that trap and then twist ‘em, That’s why I spit it for the youth, give ‘em truth in a second, ‘Cause five minutes of dumb can turn to years of regret, kid. (Bridge – I was lost… yeah I paid that cost… Now I’m speakin’ for the ones still trapped and lost… If I can change… you can too… This pain got a purpose… I’m proof… (Verse 3 – Now I’m rappin’ with a purpose, every verse got a mission, Tryna save another life with the words that I’m spittin’, From the gutter to the grind, now I’m climbin’ out the trenches, Turned a shoebox stash into long-term investments. Time is money, I was broke in both directions, Now I’m buildin’ up a legacy through pain and reflection, Resurrection of a man that was dead to his dream, Now I’m leadin’ by example, show ‘em more than it seem. Vna$ty—name heavy, I was born with the fire, Ready to die, now I’m ready to inspire, Take me higher, every bar like a step out the cage, Turnin’ chapters of my life into a lyrical page. (Hook – From a shoebox stash to investin’ in stocks, From wastin’ my time to watchin’ the clock, Pain made me—yeah it sharpened my aim, Truth in my bars, I ain’t spittin’ for fame. From a dark past livin’ fast, full of sin, Now I’m fightin’ for the youth, tryna keep ‘em out the pen, Yeah I lost years I can’t rewind or replace, Now I’m speakin’ through these bars, every scar got a face. (Outro – This more than music… This testimony… If you listen close… You might save your life… Vna$ty… Pain made me.
