lirik lagu nico roberts - 3601

[chorus]
they gave me numbers, i gave ’em truth
lied to myself when i labeled it youth
i was just 3601 in a room
but i walked out with a mission and wounds
they gave me h~ll, i made it a throne
did some wrong, but i did it alone
if i never say it, just know that i knew—
pain made me realer than most of these dudes

[verse 1]
i was 20~somethin’ thinkin’ i could bend fate
36 months in a 6×8
one call a week, letters gettin’ read
by some suit in the back with a glitch in his head
they don’t know my mama cry quiеt through the line
don’t know my brother gotta hold both sidеs
i was just a number in the file of the cold
but i prayed with a fury that could fracture stone
kept my back to the wall, eyes sharp like glass
every night i would write like it might be my last
saw men turn wolves, saw kings collapse
even learned how to smile with a blade in my lap
they say prison break people — nah, it define
either crumble or you carve out a diamond spine
every fight wasn’t fair, but i fought with my breath
learned to cherish every second when you live near death
and when they said my name, i ain’t flinch
kept my soul stitched even when the time pinched
3601 — inked in my bones
not ’cause of fear, but the power i owned
[chorus]
they gave me numbers, i gave ’em truth
lied to myself when i labeled it youth
i was just 3601 in a room
but i walked out with a mission and wounds
they gave me h~ll, i made it a throne
did some wrong, but i did it alone
if i never say it, just know that i knew—
pain made me realer than most of these dudes

[verse 2]
you ever count the minutes like it’s blood in your cup?
you ever talk to god but the silence erupt?
they said, “you got time” like it’s a gift, not a chain
but time just a mirror that reflect your pain
homie next door cried on his daughter’s fifth
said she won’t even know him by the time he dip
i watched the hardest men fold over letters
crack open like cans, no pride in the weather
3601 etched on the wall in chalk
next to a quote from pac, next to a prayer he taught
they don’t see the depth of what time really do
how a dream can rot if you don’t water it through
i read books like they were windows
wrote rhymes with my soul in the ink flow
used to think i was cursed by the dirt
till i rose like a seed out the hurt
now i talk like every bar could free one
for the kid still locked with the key gone
3601 — that’s my resurrection
not my jail — my self~correction
[chorus]
they gave me numbers, i gave ’em truth
lied to myself when i labeled it youth
i was just 3601 in a room
but i walked out with a mission and wounds
they gave me h~ll, i made it a throne
did some wrong, but i did it alone
if i never say it, just know that i knew—
pain made me realer than most of these dudes

[verse 3]
this ain’t rap, this a memoir soaked in heat
where the bars came first, then the beat
my celly died mid~prayer, heart just stopped
they zipped him up like time don’t talk
that’s when i promised i’d use this gift
not just for streams, not just for hits
but to speak for the ones never heard
for the numbers turned ghosts, for the ones in the dirt
you see a tattoo — i see a story
you hear a bar — i feel the mourning
3601 — i wear it proud
’cause i ain’t never let ’em break me down
this for the kid with a target on his back
for the court dates, for the skipped lunch sacks
for the guards that sneer, for the nights that drag
for the boy that became a man with no dad
i still hear echoes in the late night calm
still write verses like they healing psalms
3601 — that was the lock
but i was the key, and now i won’t stop
[chorus]
they gave me numbers, i gave ’em truth
lied to myself when i labeled it youth
i was just 3601 in a room
but i walked out with a mission and wounds
they gave me h~ll, i made it a throne
did some wrong, but i did it alone
if i never say it, just know that i knew—
pain made me realer than most of these dudes
