Take Your Shot

[Verse 1]
I came up with dust on my shoes
Learned how to lose, then I learned how to move
They said, “Sit down,” I said, “Watch this”
I turned every scar into a clenched fist

Cairo in my eyes, fire in my spine
I don’t need your hand, I just need my time
Step by step, I built my own throne
Heart like stone, but I’m all my own

[Pre-Chorus]
So look at me now
I’m still standing
Hands on the wheel
I’m not backing
One breath in
One step more
If you want it
Then open the door

[Chorus]
Take your shot, take your shot
I was born for this moment
Take your shot, take your shot
Say my name and I own it
No fear now, no doubt now
Watch me rise when I start
Take your shot, take your shot
If you want me, take your shot

[Verse 2]
I don’t fold when the room gets cold
I wear my grit like a chain of gold
Every “no” was a map to the next
Every hard night made me more obsessed

I move like a drum in a crowded square
Eyes on me, I can feel that stare
But I walk through heat like I own the blaze
Built my shine from the roughest days

[Pre-Chorus]
So look at me now
I’m still standing
Hands on the wheel
I’m not backing
One breath in
One step more
If you want it
Then open the door

[Chorus]
Take your shot, take your shot
I was born for this moment
Take your shot, take your shot
Say my name and I own it
No fear now, no doubt now
Watch me rise when I start
Take your shot, take your shot
If you want me, take your shot

[Bridge]
I know the storm
I know the burn
I know the price
And I still return

No one can break
What I have made
I am the hand
That holds the blade

[Final Chorus]
Take your shot, take your shot
I was born for this moment
Take your shot, take your shot
Say my name and I own it
No fear now, no doubt now
Watch me rise when I start
Take your shot, take your shot
If you want me, take your shot

Take your shot, take your shot
I came too far to fall apart
Take your shot, take your shot
I turn the dark into art
