[Intro]
Started young, caught in the game, no turning back
Bounce in my step, dreams of a clean slate, but I stay strapped
[Verse 1]
From junior high, grindin' in the shadows, chasing paper
Bad bitches on my line, flavor, notorious neighbor
Facing thirty-five, life on the line, tryna escape the cage
Rehab kicked me out, but I still got plans, still turn the page
[Pre-Chorus]
Chasing that freedom, brighter days, no more chains
Risking it all, heart stall, fighting mental pain
[Chorus]
Trap life, bad bitches riding, no lie, only real
Facing decades, hoping for the day I can heal
Still out here taking chances, dreaming of release
Praying for the system to crash and I find my peace
[Verse 2]
Third strike on the trafficking, heavy weight, deep scars
Still out here in these streets, counting stars behind bars
Booted from rehab, but I ain’t losing hope
Every chance I take, just to find a way to cope
[Pre-Chorus]
Chasing that freedom, brighter days, no more chains
Risking it all, heart stall, fighting mental pain
[Chorus]
Trap life, bad bitches riding, no lie, only real
Facing decades, hoping for the day I can heal
Still out here taking chances, dreaming of release
Praying for the system to crash and I find my peace
[Bridge]
One day I’ll break free, no more trap, no more pain
Till then I grind daily, soaking in the rain
Counting down the years, writing my escape plan
Till I walk free, finally, a new man
[Outro]
Still out here, still dreaming, still fighting to breathe
One day I’ll wake up, finally, just to believe.
