Cold In My City

Yeah

Still here

Still hungry (uh)

Listen

Hoodie on, same block

Cold wind through the bus stop

Mama prayin' that the storm stop

I just learned how to duck shots

Late rent, late calls

Landlord trippin' on the missed logs

My cousin caught up in that pitfall

I been tryna build a way out, brick wall

Phone screen crack, but it still glow

Timeline flexin', they in silk clothes

I was in the kitchen with a chipped bowl

Turnin' all this pressure into sick flows (yeah)

It get cold in my city, but I stay hot

Turn the pain into flames, watch the page pop

Came up, no handouts, just a brave heart

If they ever count me out, I just restart

Cold in my city, but I stay hot

Turn the cuts into crowns when the beat drop

They can try to shut the gate, I just break locks

Cold world, but I walk it like a straight shot (straight shot)

New day, same grind

Still see sirens in the daytime

Lil bro askin' if the chain shine

Told him "Nah, it’s in your brain, shine" (for real)

Grandma Bible on the desk chair

Next to the scale and the best prayer

Homies split sides like the web there

I just keep my circle small as a chest flare

Coach said I wouldn't see the next year

Teacher said I wouldn't leave the west here

Now they gotta watch me from the best tier

I been writin' every doubt in the sweat here

It get cold in my city, but I stay hot

Turn the pain into flames, watch the page pop

Came up, no handouts, just a brave heart

If they ever count me out, I just restart

Cold in my city, but I stay hot

Turn the cuts into crowns when the beat drop

They can try to shut the gate, I just break locks

Cold world, but I walk it like a straight shot (yeah)
