From the Dirt to Divine

(Intro – Spoken Word, echo—filtered)

Flat on my back

But heaven looked better from down there

(Verse 1)

Wasn't no pride when I hit that floor

Broke my will, couldn't fake no more

Dirt in my teeth, blood on my hope

Thought it was death, but it felt like home

Silence loud, then the whisper came

"Son, this fall gon' baptize pain."

Eyes to the sky while the world spun fast—

That's when mercy stared back through glass

(Chorus – Echo vocals, layered harmonies)

I was down bad, couldn't even look up

Now I lift hands, now I help 'em up

Used to curse God, now I speak His name

From the gutter up, still praise in the rain

Yeah I fell hard, but I rose in grace

Turned my graveyard into holy space

Can't stay down when the light show up

Found Him low, now I help 'em up

(Verse 2)

They ain't see me in them cold, cracked nights

Ripped shoes, ripped soul, no lights

But the Spirit moved like a midnight train

Broke chains that was linked to shame

Now I move like I got flame in breath

Talk real ‘cause I danced with death

I ain't holy, I'm healed with scars

I just guide like the North from afar

(Bridge – Angel choir stabs + spoken interlude)

I ain't perfect, I'm placed

Not chosen ‘cause I'm worthy — I was saved in waste

Now I stand where I once lay face to dust

And I pull the broken up with us

(Final Chorus – More intensity, layered echoes)

I was down bad, couldn't even look up

Now I lift hands, now I help 'em up

Used to curse God, now I speak His name

From the gutter up, still praise in the rain

Yeah I fell hard, but I rose in grace

Turned my graveyard into holy space

Can't stay down when the light show up

Found Him low, now I help 'em up

(Outro – Whispered fade over pads)

From the dirt to divine

I ain't just saved — I'm sent
