CHALLENGER'S RAP

• Yeah
• I came from crumbs and corners, curbside dreams and cracked faith,
• Where kings get crowned by silence, not by captions or fake praise.
• I’m the echo in the hall when your bravado start to shake,
• You guarding doors you don’t own, posted up at heaven’s gate.
•  
• See I don’t rush the castle, I let time erode the stone,
• Every brick you think you laid was a blueprint for my throne.
• You the armor, not the crown, you the bell but not the tone,
• Just a chapter in the book that been writing me alone.
•  
• I move quiet like a rumor, heavy steps but light feet,
• Every bar got double lives, triple mirrors, no repeats.
• I been sparring with the dark, learned to hustle with belief,
• While you flexing for the court, I was sharpening my teeth.
•  
• You mistook the post for power, thought the watch made you the lord,
• But the key don’t make the door, and the sword don’t choose the war.
• You a checkpoint, I’m the path, you a question, I’m the score,
• You defend what you inherit...I’m the claim it was before.
•  
• I let pressure do the talking, I don’t need to raise a tone,
• Every move I make say “future,” every loss say “stepping stone.”
• I was bred inside the cracks where the diamonds overgrown,
• Now the seat you been protecting got my measurements engraved in stone.
•  
• You been dining with the system, tasting crumbs they let you eat,
• I was learning how to hunt, how to turn defeat to meat.
• Different hunger, different cloth, different bloodline in the streets,
• You the knight that never noticed who the banner really reads.
•  
• I don’t beef for entertainment, I ascend by evolution,
• Every diss you throw a bridge, every hate a contribution.
• You standing stiff in tradition, I’m the glitch in the solution,
• When the castle change its owner, they gon’ call it revolution.
•  
• Yeah
• You loud with borrowed power, I’m calm with earned weight,
• You protect the myth of now, I architect the next age.
• When they ask how I dethroned him, I’ll just point to your place...
• You wasn’t the king I beat…
•  
• You was the test I passed on the way.
