Intro (ad-libs)
Yeah, huh, woo—spin it back
Chorus
Spin the block, one more lap, night lights on me (on me)
Shadows watch, heart cold, rollin' silently (silently)
Lookin' for the ghosts of the ones that left me (left me)
I keep my circle tight, trust few, feel the beef (feel the beef)
Spin the block, we ride slow, memories on repeat (repeat)
Pray for peace but I move how my pain speak (pain speak)
Brothers gone, I carry all that heat (that heat)
Spin the block, block on repeat, yeah
Verse 1
Backseat heavy with the weight of all my losses, huh
Mama cryin', story told in all these crosses, yeah
Used to laugh in the kitchen, now the silence cost us, huh
I learned to lock my chest, don’t let nobody cross us, nah
Streets raised me, taught me how to fold when it’s stormy
People switchin', change colors when it’s pouring, homie
I seen the eyes that smiled but prayed I’d be warnin’ me
So I keep mine cold, let the night do the talking, see
Pre-Chorus
Windows down, speakers loud, heartbeat on the dash
Thinking ’bout the ones I lost, everything they stash
I’m a product of the struggle, scars in every path
If they come for us, then we came back in a flash
Chorus
Spin the block, one more lap, night lights on me (on me)
Shadows watch, heart cold, rollin' silently (silently)
Lookin' for the ghosts of the ones that left me (left me)
I keep my circle tight, trust few, feel the beef (feel the beef)
Spin the block, we ride slow, memories on repeat (repeat)
Pray for peace but I move how my pain speak (pain speak)
Brothers gone, I carry all that heat (that heat)
Spin the block, block on repeat, yeah
Verse 2
Streetlights flicker like the past when I drive past, huh
Every corner got a story, every stoop got a cast, yeah
I’m tryna heal but the hurt keep playin' like a track
One name on my mind, swear I ain’t never holdin' back
Mama said forgive, but she don’t know what I seen
Sleepless nights, holdin' tight to a faded dream
Ain’t no glory in the move, only lessons in the scheme
So I ride these blocks slow, tryna find a clean between
Bridge
I don’t wanna be a shadow, but shadows keep callin'
I don’t want more trouble, still the city keep haulin'
Used to be a kid with hopes, now the memories brawlin'
I just want my peace, but the streets keep fallin'
(Huh, yeah)
Chorus (big)
Spin the block, one more lap, night lights on me (on me)
Shadows watch, heart cold, rollin' silently (silently)
Lookin' for the ghosts of the ones that left me (left me)
I keep my circle tight, trust few, feel the beef (feel the beef)
Spin the block, we ride slow, memories on repeat (repeat)
Pray for peace but I move how my pain speak (pain speak)
Brothers gone, I carry all that heat (that heat)
Spin the block, block on repeat, yeah
Outro (ad-libs)
Spin it back, spin it back—keep gone, keep gone
I just want the sun to rise on a different song
But till then we spin the block, till the hurt move on
Block on repeat, block on repeat—yea
Otro!
