Lyrics
[Verse 1] I had a fridge full of air And a couch with a spring gone wild Mama counting bills by hand Trying not to let me see her tired I wore out shoes in the rain But I kept my name on straight No silver spoon, no lucky break Just a knock and a little faith [Pre-Chorus] Now look at my hands Still rough, still real I learned how to build With a cracked-up wheel You say I got lucky I say I got scars I came from the mud And I made it this far [Chorus] Started with nothing Started with nothing (started with nothing) Now I’m here, still coming Still coming, still coming Started with nothing But I never stayed there I turned every “can’t” Into a stair [Verse 2] Late nights at the laundromat One sock, one dream, one plan Pocket full of lint and prayers Trying to become that man I sold my time for a plate Kept my pride in my teeth Every door that slammed in my face Built the hunger underneath [Pre-Chorus] Now look at my hands Still rough, still real I learned how to build With a cracked-up wheel You say I got lucky I say I got scars I came from the mud And I made it this far [Chorus] Started with nothing Started with nothing (started with nothing) Now I’m here, still coming Still coming, still coming Started with nothing But I never stayed there I turned every “can’t” Into a stair [Bridge] Tell them I remember The cold floor, the lean Tell them I remember What broke in between If I made a way up It was step by step From the bottom of the barrel To the top of my breath [Final Chorus] Started with nothing Started with nothing (started with nothing) Now I’m here, still coming Still coming, still coming Started with nothing But I never stayed there I turned every “can’t” Into a stair
