Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was posted by the corner store code
Shoelace loose and my mind still gold
Old screen door with the spring too loud
Mama said, "Boy, keep your feet on ground"
Broke clock ticking on the wall, still go
Every setback taught me how to move slow
Dollar in my fist, yeah, I made it stretch
Now I count my scars like a quiet flex
Neon signs ain't what I chase
I want truth in a ragged frame
Two-step when the day get mean
One deep breath, then I hit that scene
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me who gon' ride
When the rain hit hard
Tell me who gon' stay
When the plates get scarce
[Chorus]
Corner store code
I live by the code
Corner store code
I keep it low, I keep it close
(keep it close)
Corner store code
If you know, you know
Corner store code
I learned that way from old ghosts
[Verse 2]
Backseat dreams in a borrowed ride
Radio hiss and a half-lit sky
I seen friends change for a faster shine
Then lose their name in a week of time
I don't talk big, I let bills fold
Let the work speak when the room get cold
Steel in my spine, but my smile stay light
I built my steps in the sting of nights
Now I pass that flame, let the young ones see
Ain't no crown worth a crooked knee
If the whole thing cracks, I still stand tall
'Cause the code got me through it all
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me who gon' ride
When the rain hit hard
Tell me who gon' stay
When the plates get scarce
[Chorus]
Corner store code
I live by the code
Corner store code
I keep it low, I keep it close
(keep it close)
Corner store code
If you know, you know
Corner store code
I learned that way from old ghosts
[Bridge]
Late shift, same block, same face
New wounds, same hard place
I ain't made of gold, I got chipped edges
Still I move like I meant it
[Chorus]
Corner store code
I live by the code
Corner store code
I keep it low, I keep it close
(keep it close)
Corner store code
If you know, you know
Corner store code
I learned that way from old ghosts

Style
Boom bap rap with dusty drum loops, swung breakbeat chops, warm upright bass samples, and crisp snare cracks at a brisk head-nod tempo; verse rides sparse drums and a filtered piano stab, pre-chorus tightens with tambourine and rising vinyl squeal, chorus lands with layered gang doubles and a chopped soul chant. Short ad-lib throws, punch-in emphasis, and a lo-fi, close-mic mix with gritty mids and wide hooks., rap
