Here’s a tighter version of **“Break the Chains”**, Let's Go!
---
### **(Verse 1 - The Struggle)**
(*808s BOOMIN’, static cracklin’*)
Cold nights, streetlights, shadows in the alley *(BLAOW!)*
Young ones strapped up, servin’ fiends in the valley *(HUH!)*
Momma shed tears, daddy been gone *(WHERE HE AT?!)*
Ain’t no love here, gotta get it on my own *(YUH! YUH!)*
Hand-to-hand deals, shorty skippin’ school *(CHH CHH!)*
Tryna stack bands, playin’ by the rules *(WHAT RULES?!)*
Rules of the gutter, rules of the pain *(UH-HUH!)*
Either get rich or get hit in the game *(BRRRT! BRRRT!)*
Bodies drop fast, don’t blink or you next *(RRAH!)*
Runnin’ from the reaper with a cross on my neck *(DEADBOYZ!)*
She workin’ late nights, heels click on the bricks *(SKRRR!)*
Sellin’ her soul for a fix, life full of tricks *(DAMN!)*
---
### **(Hook)**
(*Bass distorted, eerie synths swelling*)
**This the life in the dark where the sun never rise** *(NEVER!)*
**Where the young lose hope and the strong don’t survive** *(UH-HUH!)*
**But I made it through the rain, now I'm changin’ the lane** *(SKRRR!)*
**Tryna lift up my people, help ‘em break from the chains** *(LET’S GO!)*
---
### **(Verse 2 - The Change)**
(*Beat switch—darker, heavier sub-bass*)
I was lost in the cycle, blinded by the game *(HUH?)*
But I flipped my story, now I’m changin’ the frame *(SKRRR!)*
No more grams in the bag, no more runnin’ from the law *(UH-UH!)*
Now I’m buildin’ up my city, helpin’ youngins stand tall *(YEAH!)*
Told shorty, “You ain't gotta load that” *(PUT IT DOWN!)*
Gave him books, gave him hope, now he on a new path *(REAL TALK!)*
Told queen, “Girl, you worth way more” *(MORE!)*
Got her out the life, now she ownin’ her store *(UH-HUH!)*
The streets took many, but they won’t take mine *(NO WAY!)*
Pull ‘em out the gutter, one soul at a time *(ONE BY ONE!)*
Turn pain into power, let the lost ones see *(SEE IT!)*
If I made it out, then you can like me *(DEADBOYZ!)*
---
### **(Hook - Repeat)**
**This the life in the dark where the sun never rise** *(NEVER!)*
**Where the young lose hope and the strong don’t survive** *(UH-HUH!)*
**But I made it through the rain, now I'm changin’ the lane** *(SKRRR!)*
**Tryna lift up my people, help ‘em break from the chains** *(LET’S GO!)*
---
### **(Outro)** (x2)
(*Melancholy piano, rain sounds fade out*)
**No more tears, no more cries in the night** *(NO MORE!)*
**We gon’ build, we gon’ rise, bring the lost to the light** *(COME UP!)*
**Now we kings, now we queens, yeah, we breakin’ the chains** *(BRRRT! DEADBOYZ!)*
