Staircases
Ascendancy: A Sonic Journey through Urban Grit and Triumph
Lyrics
I stand statuesque
I am standing still and unmoving like a statue.
righteous mind wit the tatted flesh
I have a righteous mind along with tattooed flesh.
One foot in front of the other climbin these tattered steps
Progressing step by step on worn and torn steps.
used to trap Quebec
I used to engage in illegal activities in Quebec.
straight out the sewer like das efx
Coming from difficult circumstances, similar to the hip-hop duo Das EFX.
dodgin common threats
Avoiding everyday dangers and challenges.
peep the opulence
Observing and enjoying the wealth and luxury.
let the pros work u a hobbyist
Letting professionals handle tasks, distinguishing from amateurs.
buckshot from the shotty make ya body twist
Gunshots from a shotgun causing a violent reaction in the body.
burn you like a pot a grits
Inflicting harm or pain, likened to burning someone like hot grits.
conquer continents with my consonants
Conquering and making an impact globally with linguistic skills.
3fifty terrace wit the model chicks
Living in a luxurious residence with attractive women.
bottle sippin
Drinking from a bottle, possibly indicating success or celebration.
bypassed the gatekeepers now the locks is twistin
Overcoming obstacles and challenges previously faced.
I got a system
I have a system or plan for success.
but my talent don’t got a ceiling
My talent has limitless potential.
glass roofs
Referring to success emerging from humble beginnings.
straight out the mud this grass roots
Rooted in difficult circumstances and struggles.
never on the fence, my body’s tense, but I act loose
Staying committed and decisive, even in tense situations.
I spit pain from the days that I couldn’t smile
Expressing pain from challenging times in the past.
still held it all together like a wooden dowel
Maintaining composure and strength during difficult periods.
I’m not scared of heights plus I’m not lookin down
Fearless and confident, not afraid of challenges or heights.
so profound wit these sinister nouns and crooked vowels
Deep and impactful with dark and twisted language.
I hit my target audience like archery
Reaching the intended audience effectively, like precision in archery.
U should never underestimate this authors reach
One should not underestimate the influence and reach of the artist.
My souls torn cuz these streets keep callin me
Feeling torn between personal desires and the challenges of the streets.
tunnel vision but the light at the end is hard to see
Having a focused goal, but the path to success is unclear.
I give you all of me/I’m great, like we all can be
Offering oneself completely, acknowledging the potential for greatness in everyone.
it’s all in reach/I jus gotta move cautiously
Success is achievable, but caution and careful steps are necessary.
