[Verse]
The streets are cracked like a shattered dream
Dust kicks up where hope once gleamed
Neon signs hum but never speak loud
The air is heavy with a restless crowd
[Prechorus]
Do you hear it do you feel it
The hum of a life that's barely real
[Chorus]
This side of town don’t wear a crown
It’s beat-up boots and a whiskey frown
This side of town where the nights stay rough
We keep on fighting but it’s never enough
[Verse 2]
The train tracks cut like scars through the land
Echoes of freight like a ghost in demand
Graffiti screams where the walls won't bend
Every corner hides a story that won’t end
[Bridge]
This side ain't golden it’s rust and grit
We take what we got and we run with it
Dreams on the edge hearts on the line
Living in shadows but calling it fine
[Chorus]
This side of town don’t wear a crown
It’s beat-up boots and a whiskey frown
This side of town where the nights stay rough
We keep on fighting but it’s never enough
