Scrappy

This track comes from pure ambition — the boss-mode mindset that builds empires before breakfast. It tackles Being resourceful and scrappy — finding solutions in unexpected places, MacGyver mentality, the creative problem-solving that comes from not having resources. The lyrics get specific — "Give me duct tape and a dream, I'll build a rocket" — because personal tracks on Majik's are personal for real, not performatively. The bounce production matches the energy of the confession. It hits energetic and playful, in that order. Every personal track in the catalogue comes from a real moment, a real feeling, a real person. This one is no exception.

[verse 1] Give me duct tape and a dream, I'll build a rocket Give me a dollar fifty, I'll flip a profit in my pocket Scrappy is my default, scrappy is my setting While they're planning for perfection, I'm already letting The prototype loose, yeah it's rough around the edge But it works and that's the thing that gives me leverage Against the ones with funding and the ones with staff I got ingenuity and a paragraph Of ideas scribbled on a napkin at the bar That'll take us further than their money ever got so far [chorus] Scrappy, that's how I roll No silver spoon, just a hungry soul Scrappy, making something shine Out of whatever's on the line Call me scrappy, call me resourceful Call me the one who makes it work when it's not supposed to [verse 2] They got the budget for the premium subscription I got the open-source and a little bit of friction That makes the solution better because it had to fight To exist at all, and that's the oversight That money people miss, the struggle is the sauce The limitation is the innovation's boss OG Unicorn ain't scrappy because he has to be He's scrappy because scrappy sets the better free A-A-Ron in the kitchen making gourmet from the scraps While they're ordering takeout and taking naps [chorus] Scrappy, that's how I roll No silver spoon, just a hungry soul Scrappy, making something shine Out of whatever's on the line Call me scrappy, call me resourceful Call me the one who makes it work when it's not supposed to [bridge] Constraints are just creativity in disguise Poverty of resources, richness of the mind Every wall's a door if you look at it right Every dead end's just a left turn in the night [chorus] Scrappy, that's how I roll No silver spoon, just a hungry soul Scrappy, making something shine Out of whatever's on the line Call me scrappy, call me resourceful Call me the one who makes it work when it's not supposed to [outro] Scrappy and proud That's the unicorn way
