Fast Lane Dreams

From the streets of Manhattan, tales of the childhood flame

Derrick in the shadows, chasing dreams, staking his claim

Born and raised where the city never sleeps

Lower East Side stories, scars and memories deep

Running wild with the cousins, papa and Shawn

Chaos in the streets but my heart stayed strong

Kept my sister Faith safe, fought the shadows alone

Family first, that was always known

Helped mom, stood tall, never backed down

Focused on the future, no time to clown

Fast cars, shiny rims, chasing that speed

Living life in the fast lane, fulfilling my need

Girls tempting, but my passion’s my guide

Endgame’s wealth, stay true, reach for the sky

Switched schools, changed routes, dreams took flight

Motivated by the hustle, eye on the prize

Every turn, every jump, hard to ignore

Built my path, wanted success and more

Kept my family close, my mind on my goal

Never let the streets take control

Grit and grind, I knew I’d shine someday

Making my family proud in every way

Big cars, fast lanes, chasing that dream

Living legends in the making, part of the team

Girls tempt me but my heart’s in the race

Rising above, destined for a better place

From the shadows to the spotlight, I climb

Every mile paved with passion and rhyme

Legacy in my blood, destiny’s call

Standing tall, I won’t fall

Manhattan roots, stories etched in time

Derrick’s journey, a rhythm, a rhyme

Family and dreams, my steadfast tune

Shining bright beneath the city moon
