Crown and the Street

[Intro]
Yo, we livin' in the shadows, caught between the darkness and the light
She said she tired, wanna leave, but I tell her, baby, the street's my life
This is our story, the struggle, the game, the pain, the crown
Listen up...

[Verse 1]
She sits across the bed, tears in her eyes, sayin' she need more than this
Streetlights and handshakes, love lost in the mist
Told her I can’t just walk away, I’m king in this game, it’s a part of me
Crown heavy, but I wear it proud, I got streets in my blood, can’t set it free

[Pre-Chorus]
She sayin' she tired of the hustle, the grind, the pain, she wanna escape
But I got it all, the struggle, the fame, can't just walk away from my fate

[Chorus]
I'm stuck in the trenches, can't lay down my crown
King of these streets, never bow, never drown
She sees the war in my eyes, the toll it’s takin' on her mind
Tells me she wanna leave, but I tell her, baby, this life’s my grind

[Verse 2]
Memories of the block, nights so cold, life ain't been kind
Her tears fall like rain, sayin' she tired of this grind
I tell her, stay strong, we built from the ground, this is all I know
My throne’s in these streets, my roots run deep, can't just let it go

[Pre-Chorus]
She cryin', say she’s exhausted, tired of the pain and the cost
But I’m draped in power, got a empire, love and loss embossed

[Chorus]
I'm stuck in the trenches, can't lay down my crown
King of these streets, never bow, never drown
She sees the war in my eyes, the toll it’s takin' on her mind
Tells me she wanna leave, but I tell her, baby, this life’s my grind

[Bridge]
Maybe one day, we’ll find a way, out these streets to a better place
But for now, I gotta stay, my throne demands I embrace
Her love’s the armor that I'll need, to keep her close despite the storm
In these streets I planted my seed, my empire’s the reason I stay warm

[Outro]
Yo, she might leave, she might stay, but I’ll always be the king in her eyes
Street life, it’s a toll we pay, but I ain’t about to cut my ties
Love and loyalty, intertwined, in this game, we fight, we survive
Keepin' my crown, stayin' my ground, cause I’m the king, that’s alive.
