A "Truth to Power" lyric from Vince Staples ("Homage")

Artist: Vince Staples Song: Homage Released: June 23, 2017

Lyric:

This my ghetto story, crescendo

Context (via Genius):

Here Staples uses a metaphor by comparing his rise from the ghetto in Long Beach to the heights of fame to a musical crescendo

A crescendo in music theory is a gradual increase in volume or intensity. In this case, the ‘gradual increase’ is his wealth and popularity.
