Lyrics:

Cortney Robinson laid it down

sitting where walls decide your hours

where time moves like it's got weight attached

"if it makes you wise to call out every problem people don't see,

then it makes you wiser to have a solution to every problem you can"

I been the one pointing at cracks in the foundation

standing in rooms full of people who won't look down

my finger extended like an accusation

watch me catalog every fracture every fault line

documentation without renovation

But awareness is just the appetizer

it fills your mouth but leaves you hungry

I watched my own tongue get tired

from naming what's broken

from being the prophet nobody asked for

The shift happens when your hands get involved

when you stop watching soil erode

and start planting something that can root

this is elevation Cortney talked about

moving from diagnosis to treatment

Wise to see it

Wiser to build

Wise to name it

Wiser to heal

I'm learning construction now

how to pour foundation where there wasn't any

how to measure twice and cut once

my grandfather's hands knew this

passed down through blood and burnt palms

Being solution-oriented means

you carry tools instead of complaints

you show up when nobody's recording

when there's no applause for the work

just the work itself asking to be done

Wise to see it

Wiser to build

Wise to name it

Wiser to heal

So I'm done being the guy who just points

I'm picking up what's been discarded

turning observer into architect

because Cortney knew from inside those walls

that vision without action is just another way to stay still

And I refuse to be still

when movement is what my people need

when building is what this moment demands

when the only thing between problem and solution

is whether I'm brave enough to put my hands in
