Lyrics

Hook (Soul Vocal)
Everybody call it luck
I call it surviving long enough
To meet the blessing headed my way
Everybody call it luck
I call it faith with work attached
Showing up day after day
Maybe fortune knew my address
Maybe timing knew my name
Everybody call it luck
I call it something different
Verse 1 (Soul-Rap)
People love the final chapter
Hate reading all the pages before it
They see the harvest
Miss the seasons spent preparing soil
See, I remember empty calendars
Unanswered calls
Plans falling apart politely
And opportunities arriving disguised
As inconvenience
Funny how life work.
The thing I prayed for
Usually entered through a side door
Never looked how I imagined
But always carried exactly
What I needed.
Hook (Soul Vocal)
Everybody call it luck
I call it surviving long enough
To meet the blessing headed my way
Everybody call it luck
I call it faith with work attached
Showing up day after day
Maybe fortune knew my address
Maybe timing knew my name
Everybody call it luck
I call it something different
Verse 2 (Soul-Rap)
My auntie found love at fifty-two.
Started a business at fifty-five.
Bought her first home at fifty-eight.
Now tell me again
Why timelines got authority?
That's why I stopped comparing clocks.
Comparison got terrible eyesight.
Always measuring somebody else's chapter
Against your unfinished paragraph.
No thank you.
I'm busy becoming.
Busy planting.
Busy learning.
Busy trusting.
The process got enough pressure already.
Bridge (Soul Vocal)
What's meant for me
Never needed chasing
Just preparation
And patience
Verse 3 (Soul-Rap)
Maybe luck is just perspective.
Maybe blessings look random
To people who missed the backstory.
The late nights.
The self-doubt.
The rebuilding.
The discipline.
The courage required
To keep showing up
Without guarantees.
That's not luck.
That's partnership.
Between faith
And persistence.
And I've been investing
In both.
Final Hook (Soul Vocal)
Everybody call it luck
I call it surviving long enough
To meet the blessing headed my way
Everybody call it luck
I call it faith with work attached
Showing up day after day
Maybe fortune knew my address
Maybe timing knew my name
Everybody call it luck
I call it something different
Outro
The world said lucky.
I said prepared.
The world said chance.
I said purpose.
The world said coincidence.
I smiled...
And kept walking.
