anchor to the chain - fabian davison collins lyrics
[intro]
yeah
you thought the weight would stop me
you thought the lock would hold
but i learned something in the dark
some chains teach you how to pull the whole wall down
[hook]
anchor to the chain
i still move, i still rise through the pain
anchor to the chain
you tried to hold me, but i learned the game
anchor to the chain
every link got a lesson in its frame
anchor to the chain
now i own the weight that once owned my name
[verse 1]
first off, let me clear this room
i do not bow to a borrowed tune
you built your throne out of rented praisе
i built my name out of sleepless days
you talk big when thе lights come on
but your whole foundation got a crack too long
you got a deal, but you do not own sound
got a loud team, but they all sit down
i saw the contract, saw the hidden bite
saw the gold t**th in the paper white
they told me, “smile, this is how stars eat,”
but i saw old kings with cold receipts
you move like fame is the final aim
i move like freedom is the higher claim
the real ones know when i step in the lane
i am not the link
i am the break in the chain
[hook]
anchor to the chain
i still move, i still rise through the pain
anchor to the chain
you tried to hold me, but i learned the game
anchor to the chain
every link got a lesson in its frame
anchor to the chain
now i own the weight that once owned my name
[verse 2]
they wanted me quiet, wanted me grateful
wanted me blind with a plate at the table
wanted my pen, wanted my voice
wanted my future dressed up as a choice
but i read clauses like battle plans
saw soft handshakes with iron hands
saw friendly smiles turn sharp backstage
saw whole careers disappear from a page
you cannot scare me with industry smoke
i walked through rooms where the mirrors broke
i heard them whisper, “he knows too much,”
then watched their confidence lose its touch
you chase applause, i chase control
you sell the moment, i keep the soul
i do not need to shout your name
your silence tells me you felt the flame
[bridge]
i am calm because i counted the cost
i am sharp because i studied the loss
you call it pressure
i call it proof
you call it weight
i call it truth
[verse 3]
now watch how the board gets rearranged
i take every trap and i change its name
advance into lesson, rejection to fuel
fine print into class, pain into school
they tried to make me another lost artist
another bright voice in a label office
another gold plaque with an empty shelf
another grown man who does not own himself
but i came with books, came with banks
came with land, came with ranks
came with a plan for the blocks that bleed
came with a map for the ones in need
so keep your party, keep your fake throne
keep your borrowed crown and your rented home
i walked in chained, but i leave with the frame
anchor on my back, still i dragged the whole game
[final hook]
anchor to the chain
i still move, i still rise through the pain
anchor to the chain
you tried to hold me, but i learned the game
anchor to the chain
every link got a lesson in its frame
anchor to the chain
now i own the weight that once owned my name
[outro]
they thought the chain was punishment
i made it evidence
they thought the anchor would sink me
i made it leverage
now every link says one thing
i was never yours
