Diamond Dust

Footprints vanish, walkin' on diamond dust,

Shadows whisper secrets, loyalty's a bust.

Heart colder than a freezer, iceberg's trust,

Hunger in my stomach, grind’s a must.

Crumblin' bridges, watch 'em burn to soot,

Gold chains heavy, neck feelin' like a noose.

Eyes red, nights black, schemes stay loose,

Enemies close, tight circle reduced.

Diamond dust, scatter in the air,

Dreams sharp enough to cut despair.

Stack it up, watch it all combust,

From the ashes, rise through diamond dust.

City lights flicker, skyline’s a mirage,

Every step forward feels like sabotage.

Money’s the language, commas in collage,

Fake love fades, left with camouflage.

Tales of the struggle etched in my face,

Time’s a predator, can't keep pace.

Ghosts in the whip, ridin' through space,

Outrun the past, memories erased.

Echoes in the alley, voices in my ear,

Future's uncertain, but the path’s clear.

Skeletons dance, graveyards cheer,

Fear in my shadow, I persevere.
