[Intro]
Street calls, temptation loud, I hear the echo in my mind
But I tread carefully, gotta stay on my grind
Caught between the shadows and the light
Trying to do right, but the streets ignite
[Verse 1]
Been down this path, know the game well
Fame in the streets, but it's a personal hell
Snakes in the grass, they waiting to strike
Trust few, keep the circle tight
Loyalty's rare, I treasure that
But the trap's a trap, and I know where it's at
Family or freedom, it's a hard choice
Hear the siren, gotta silence that voice
[Pre-Chorus]
Decine the call, stay away from the fall
Don’t wanna hear that jail cell's call
Keep my head high, pray for the day
Keep moving forward, find my way
[Chorus]
I don't wanna go back, no, I gotta stay free
Street fame's a game, but it’s risky for me
Snakes and rats, got to stay alert
Life's a gamble, gotta dodge the dirt
[Bridge]
Bullseye on my back, stay vigilant
Loyal friends, just genuine
Will let that nine blow if I’m pushed
But I stay silent, stay unbrushed
Getting out the trap, making that move
No more chains, gotta prove
[Outro]
Long nights, I pray for peace
From the streets, I find release
Stay loyal, keep my faith strong
In this game, I belong, I belong
