We built the house on top of sand

They said it couldn't be done (Only One)


[Verse 1: Ethic]

We unassumin', y'all remain unaware

We comin' through, soon Debaser can change what is there

Takin' it where it ain't been in a minute

We benefited, from an un-inventive effort

That has left the sinners cynic

And it's independent

Stayin' hungry and driven

Made the decision to invest in like, somethin' I've written

Fuck it, if I'm makin' mistakes, I makе 'em look great

Ain't nevеr been the type that like testin' his brakes

Fuck it, put my foot on the gas, and press

Never would ask for less than what I bring to the table

And that's the best

I catch rec (catch rec), a mass step

But the goal's to refer to bein' broke in the past tense

We ain't cashed in yet, but we a massive threat

To be that next big thing makin' them hands get stretched

Into the air, we destined to be heirs

To the throne that's in our clutches

Thrown together like, "Fuck it."


[Chorus]

I was raised in a church, but strayed from my purpose

Some things are just supposed to happen

Pull my face out the dirt, put my faith in my work

Debaser

Some things are just supposed to happen

There was no one to mentor me, but this was meant to be

Some things are just supposed to happen

Well if death is my destiny, success is necessity

Debaser

Some things are just supposed to happen


[Verse 2: Sapient]

And when I made it to the end of the assembly line

Finishing touch workers said I was especially bright

I wasn't built with the best depth perception or sight

But there was fire of determination set in my eyes

I know my blessings are tied to the percentage I tied

Ready to die if I failed the goals I set in my mind

Once inspected, I was prepared

To face questions for the rest of my life

Questions of life or death, accept or deny

Constantly feelin' like I'm awake in a dream

Lucid, sippin' fluid that the ancients would drink

As a part of makin' my peace

Honoring the heavens

And also a way to appease the god's anger with me

It started with a "Grain of Sand" for those that don't remember

Filled with hunger and thirst I searched and combed the desert

But I never found what I sought, gold and treasure

We had to make it ourselves, hence this was thrown together


[Chorus]

I was raised in a church, but strayed from my purpose

Some things are just supposed to happen

Pull my face out the dirt, put my faith in my work

Debaser

Some things are just supposed to happen

There was no one to mentor me, but this was meant to be

Some things are just supposed to happen

Well if death is my destiny, success is necessity

Debaser

Some things are just supposed to happen
