[Intro]
Yeah, this is my story, memories carved in the streets
Dark nights, sharp lights, where life moves so discreet
A tale of survival, of scars and of pain
Ride with me through the rain, through the struggle, through the rain
[Verse 1]
Grew up on concrete, where the echoes never fade
Hustle in my veins, every corner got a shade
Fast cars, loud scars, the chaos never slows
Learning in the shadows, where the true story grows
First time I shot, hands shakin' but I aimed
Fear mixed with adrenaline, never feel the same
First smoke, heart choked, dreams so far away
Lost in the haze, trying to make it through the day
[Pre-Chorus]
Every night a war zone, every day the same grind
Lessons in the violence, scars upon my mind
But deep inside I know there's a different way
Gotta find the light, break out, make a change someday
[Chorus]
Growing up in the streets, fighting just to breathe
Life's a gamble, heavy weight on me
From the shadows I rise, no disguise, I testify
To the struggle, to the pain, I survived, I testify
[Bridge - Rap Middle]
Yo, I seen the worst, done things I can't reverse
Lost some brothers, seen the curse, feeling cursed
But I rise from the dirt, use the pain as my verse
Turn the hurt into strength, universe, I disperse
Never forget where I come from, it’s part of my soul
Every scar's a story, every story's gold
Keep my head up high, I’m chasing my goals
Made it from the pain, now watch me unfold
[Outro]
Now I speak my truth, no longer in the shadows
Walking my path, breaking free from the battles
From the streets to the top, I rise and I battle
Turn my hardships into songs, my life’s new chapter
