Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] Musa Barboza Man of Concrete Forty-three seasons Still breaking concrete (yeah) [Verse 1] Up before the sunrise Dust on his boots, eyes red but he blessed Carried that weight from the gutter to the skyline Every single setback just a rep on his chest Phone full of love from Brazil to the Bay Messages ringing from the block to L.A. Worldwide family, they pray when he pray He work, they clap, he pave that way (uh) [Chorus] Man of Concrete, brick by brick Hardest worker in the whole eclipse Forty-three candles, flame so thick Keep on keeping on, he never quit So grateful, hands up high (hands up) Whole world with him when he rise (rise) Man of Concrete, watch him climb Blessed every second of the grind (yeah) [Verse 2] Came from the struggle, turned sweat into silver Tears into tools, now the plan getting bigger Boss at the table, but heart still humble Knees hit the floor when the thunder rumble Kids in the DMs say, “You showed me the route” He just point to the sky, say, “That’s what I’m about” Forty-three years, still sharp, still tough If this ain’t enough, then they asking too much (woo) [Chorus] Man of Concrete, brick by brick Hardest worker in the whole eclipse Forty-three candles, flame so thick Keep on keeping on, he never quit So grateful, hands up high (yeah) Whole world with him when he rise Man of Concrete, watch him climb Blessed every second of the grind (keep on, keep on) [Bridge] From the first small check to the jet plane seat Same steel spine, same dirt on his feet Outworked the odds, outlived the doubt If you looking for faith, this what it look like now (yeah) [Chorus] Man of Concrete, brick by brick Hardest worker in the whole eclipse Forty-three candles, flame so thick Keep on keeping on, he never quit So grateful, hands up high Whole world with him when he rise Man of Concrete, watch him shine Blessed every second of his time (Musa)

rap, Straight-ahead West Coast trap bounce with thick kicks, subby bass, and eerie keys. Male vocals laid back but heavy, stacking in the hook with gang-style ad-libs. Verses ride a confident mid-tempo pocket, small melodic turns on key lines. Beat drops slightly on the birthday lines, then slams back in with crowd chants., gangster rap
