[Intro]
Yeah, we came from the struggle, yeah, we came from the bottom
Stories in our eyes, tales that ain’t never been told
[Verse 1]
Thugging with my crew, talking robberies and homicide
Fighting for my life, yeah, I’m tryna stay alive
Been the realest I can put that on my soul
This ain’t just rap, it’s the pain that I hold
Heart on my sleeve, I survived the trenches
Got ptsd from Memories of sliding back to back, tryna run that score we keep
Street soldier forever, never fold, never sell out
Living by the code, that’s what we’re about
[Pre-Chorus]
Never ducking no smoke, we face it head-on
From dusk till dawn, till the break of dawn
Trust is rare, but I keep my circle tight
In this life, we risk it all, gotta do what’s right
[Chorus]
Thugging with my crew, we rise above the pain
Fighting through the rain, never gonna change
Hearts made of steel, soul full of fire
In these streets, we aim higher and higher
[Bridge]
Remember days sliding back to back
Trying to run it up, never looking back
This is real street shit, no pretending
Stay true to the code, ‘til the very end
[Outro]
Never fold, never sell our soul
In the trenches, we are bold
Living by the code, that’s our role
Thug life till we reach our goal
