[Intro]
Rats in the alley
Whispers in code
Bag full of goop and
I’m headed back home (yeah)
[Verse 1]
Ticket to Speranza
Tucked in my sock
Crumbs on my jacket
Got the block on watch
Teeth in the gutter
Eyes on my stash
Paws in my pocket
Tryna claw my cash
They creep in the shadow
Gnaw at my dreams
They want what I carry
Bright little gleam
I walk through the market
Headphones low
Every corner feel crowded
But I still move slow (uh)
[Chorus]
I’m tryna make it back home to Speranza
But the rats keep reachin’ for my goop (for my goop)
They circle, they chatter, they plan up
I flip the script and raid they crew (yeah, yeah)
You want my goop? I’m takin’ yours first
Turn that hunger to a whole new purse
On my way back home to Speranza
I’m takin’ all they goop before I go (before I go)
[Verse 2]
Cheese on the table
They dive, I dash
Slide through the maze
With a bag of that splash
Snouts in the gutter
They sniff my trail
I double back once
Then I jump that rail
Concrete kingdom
Teeth made of stone
They chitter, they bicker
“Leave him alone?”
Never that, they lunge
I lunge right back
I’m the ghost in the tunnel
With a glowing pack (woah)
[Chorus]
I’m tryna make it back home to Speranza
But the rats keep reachin’ for my goop (for my goop)
They circle, they chatter, they plan up
I flip the script and raid they crew (hey)
You want my goop? I’m takin’ yours first
Turn that hunger to a whole new purse
On my way back home to Speranza
I’m takin’ all they goop before I go (before I go)
[Bridge]
Claws on the rail
Tail in the dirt
They bite, I bite
Who get hurt first?
Tunnel lights blink
But my bag still glow
Every step, every threat
I’m closer to home (yeah)
[Chorus]
I’m tryna make it back home to Speranza
But the rats keep reachin’ for my goop (for my goop)
They circle, they chatter, they plan up
I flip the script and raid they crew
You want my goop? I’m takin’ yours first
Turn that hunger to a whole new purse
On my way back home to Speranza
I’m takin’ all they goop before I go (before I go, yeah)
