Hook
Targets on they back, gotta watch where we step (watch)
Shadows in the alley, hear the whispers in the deck (yeah)
Mama prayin’ nightly, hope my name don’t get checked (don’t let it)
I move like I’m frozen, heart cold but I kept it fresh (woo)
Verse 1
Came up from the bottom, runnin’ mileage in my chest
Seen homies disappear, left a void that never rests
Money on my mind but the price is on my sleep
Lookin’ over shoulders, countin’ blessings, countin’ grief
They postin’ up the rumors, settin’ flames where peace was at
Enemies disguised, hidin’ teeth behind a laugh
I got shots that echo memories of nights I cried
Promise to my daughter I’ll get home, I won’t die
Pre-Hook
Pray for clarity, God hear my silent call (hear me)
Walls closing in when the storms begin to fall
Loyalty the currency, I spend it on the real
But they talkin’ loud — gotta guard the way I feel
Hook
Targets on they back, gotta watch where we step (watch)
Shadows in the alley, hear the whispers in the deck (listen)
Mama prayin’ nightly, hope my name don’t get checked (please)
I move like I’m frozen, heart cold but I kept it fresh
Verse 2
Used to run with smiles, now we run with iron in the trunk
Fake love all around, switchin’ lanes when we get stuck
I been through funerals that taught me how to lead
Learned the hardest lessons from the ones I used to need
Night drive, tinted glass, city lookin’ like a threat
Every handshake weighin’ heavy, watchin’ who you let
Streets taught me loyalty, pain taught me the math
If they pointin’ at my back, I redirect the path
Bridge
No parades when you risin’, just sirens and the rain (no light)
Cold nights, colder glances, tryna pull me in the strain
But I keep my circle tight, trust small, love the kids
Pray the Lord protect us from the crosses that they hid
Breakdown (ad-libs)
(Yeah) Targets on my back, targets on they back (woo)
Roll slow, stay low, never fold under attack (never)
Keep the faith, keep the strap — nah, keep the heart intact
Hook / Outro
Targets on they back, gotta watch where we step (watch)
Shadows in the alley, hear the whispers in the deck (hush)
Mama prayin’ nightly, hope my name don’t get checked (amen)
I move like I’m frozen, heart cold but I kept it fresh
Fade
Lessons in the broken nights, I carry every scar
Targets on they back, but I’m still reachin’ for the stars.
Porque music
See you when I see you
