Prompt:
[INTRO – Quiet spoken vocals, dark piano] I used to pray for a world without pain... Funny... Now they pray that I never come. Tell me... What happens when a man loses everything? [VERSE 1 – Deep, controlled storytelling rap] I was just a boy with a dream in his chest, Had a family, had a home, had a reason to rest. Then the sky turned red, heard the sound of the guns, Funny how a child learns the meaning of blood. They told me that the world was a beautiful place, Till I watched innocence disappear without a trace. I asked the heavens why the good ones had to die, But the heavens stayed silent, so I stopped asking why. I used to see the world through the eyes of a child, Now I look at the world and I question its smile. You can preach about peace, put your hands on your heart, But how can you build something beautiful from a world torn apart? [PRE-CHORUS – Melodic, haunting vocals] I buried the boy that I used to be, Somewhere between what was and what I see. If this is what the world has made of me... Then let the heavens remember me. [CHORUS – Powerful melodic hip-hop vocals] I WAS A MAN! NOW LOOK WHAT I'VE BECOME! I LOST MY HEAVEN, SO I REACHED FOR THE SUN! You gave me pain, I turned it into power. I was just a man... Now I stand above the towers! I GREW FROM A MAN TO A GOD! [VERSE 2 – More aggressive, changing rap flow] Look at my eyes, tell me what do you see? A little bit of heaven, a whole lot of misery. Six different visions, but one destination, How do you find peace in a world built on devastation? I don't need your sympathy, I don't need your prayers, I've seen the face of death, and it doesn't scare. You call me a monster, but look at your creation, Every broken child is a product of this nation. And I know, I know, I became what I hate, But tell me who's innocent when the world's built on fate? You can judge my methods, you can question my name, But you never had to carry the weight of my pain. [RAP BREAK – Fast, intricate, aggressive delivery] I was down in the rain with a hole in my soul, Trying to find me a reason to keep control. Lost my people, lost my purpose, lost everything I knew, Then I looked in the mirror and I barely saw the truth. Now the world wants peace, but it feeds on war, Everybody wants heaven, nobody knows what it's for. I turned grief into doctrine, turned scars into law, Now they bow when I speak, but they don't know what I saw. Is it power if you're empty? Is it godhood if you're lonely? If the whole world kneels before you, Who will stand beside you when you're falling? [BRIDGE – Instrumental drops, emotional piano] I never wanted to be worshipped... I only wanted the pain to stop. But somewhere along the way... I became the thing I fought. [FINAL CHORUS – Huge layered vocals, dramatic drums] I WAS A MAN! NOW LOOK WHAT I'VE BECOME! I LOST MY HEAVEN, SO I REACHED FOR THE SUN! You gave me pain, I turned it into power. I was just a man... Now I stand above the towers! I GREW FROM A MAN TO A GOD! [OUTRO – Quiet, haunting spoken voice] But even gods... Remember being human.
