[Verse]
Concrete jungle, shadows tiptoe on the block.
Caution tape dreams, tick-tock, heart stop.
Knees shake from stray whispers in the dark,
Where futures get snatched like a thief in the park.
[Chorus]
O Block sings with the hum of the street,
Steel in the air, broken glass at your feet.
Legends born, but the cost ain't sweet,
Legacy carved where the cold nights meet.
[Verse 2]
Dogs bark louder than the sirens wail.
Tales in the alley, every brick holds a tale.
Mothers light candles, sons set sail,
Chained to a cycle that's harder than nails.
[Bridge]
Cornerstones built from the blood and the grind,
Foundation strong though it's cracked by design.
Dreams still bloom through the choke of the vines,
Still hear the laughter, still see the signs.
[Chorus]
O Block breathes, ain't no silence here.
Echos through the pain, through every tear.
Break the chains, but the scars stay clear,
Every name carved, we hold them near.
[Verse 3]
We're cookin' up hope, stir the pot, make it last.
Blowin' smoke signals through the grip of the past.
Chess games of survival, king takes the cast.
O Block ain't a story, it's the outlast.
