Mitchell & The Dubs Cartel - Built for the Storm
Mitchell & The Dubs Cartel - Built for the Storm
I’ve been broke, I’ve been bent, I’ve been counted out
Took L’s like trophies, that’s what life’s about
Seen the tide try to pull me under
But I rise like waves after thunder
Mama said, "You ain't made to play safe"
So I chase dreams, not minimum wage
Scars on my knuckles, sun in my face
I'm the proof you can still win the race
No umbrella, just a backbone
Out here dancin’ in the cyclone
Let 'em talk — we already won
We don't break, we bend with the sun
I’m built for the storm, born in the fire
Got hit with the pain, came back higher
No map, just rhythm and desire
Even rock bottom couldn’t break my choir
Yeah, I thrive when the skies turn grey
I make gold from the mess they made
I’m built for the storm —
That’s why I still play
Raised by wolves, fed by hustle
Learned to turn every scar to muscle
Life threw fists, I threw rhythm
Now I two-step through every system
No mentor, just mistakes
No blueprint, just breaks
But the beat still knocks
And my faith still wakes
Let the rain come — we ain’t runnin’
Let the winds blow — still strummin’
We don’t wait for the sun to shine
We bring light with every rhyme
I’m built for the storm, born in the fire
Got hit with the pain, came back higher
No map, just rhythm and desire
Even rock bottom couldn’t break my choir
Yeah, I thrive when the skies turn grey
I make gold from the mess they made
I’m built for the storm —
Still dancin’ in the rain
(voice echo)
"Some of us weren’t made for calm seas...
We were made for the waves."
