sxmrxxt - glass ceiling lyrics

[verse 1]
they told me rise but built the structure backwards
every handshake hides a clause in fine print b+st+rds
i’m pushing upward through the pressure daily
industry designed to keep you beneath them safely
transparent barrier you can see the top floor
they watching you grind but never open that door
contracts written in a language only lawyers decipher
while you stacking credentials they just move the bar higher
i’m a veteran now weatherеd by the politics
learned thе game ain’t about talent it’s the dollar shifts
alcohol to cope with the disrespect presented
they profit off your hunger leave you starving and resented
[chorus]
smash through that structure above my position
clear but it’s locked that’s the contradiction
see the destination but the path is forbidden
breaking every obstacle that’s my only mission
[verse 2]
west side product where the struggle manufactured
they want you chasing wealth but systematically captured
i’m articulate with street sense that’s the balance needed
speak in complex sentences while the block is heated
managers and labels treating artists like commodities
extract the value quick then discard the bodies properly
geography embedded in my dna sequence
represent the pavement where survival is the weakness
multi+syllabic flows landing perfectly on tempo
destroy inferior opponents it’s what i’m sent for
financial instability the cost of staying honest
but i’d rather break the barrier than sell out for a promise
[chorus]
smash through that structure above my position
clear but it’s locked that’s the contradiction
see the destination but the path is forbidden
breaking every obstacle that’s my only mission
[outro]
legacy for my children written in blood and ink
the rough life celebrated never stop to think
percussive like a weapon every syllable intentional
glass breaks eventually when the force is relentless
