[Verse]
Steel boots stompin', sun won't rest,
Jackhammer echoes, poundin' my chest.
Hunger gnawin', ribs showin' through,
Concrete jungle, this the life I knew.
Calloused hands, stories untold,
Sweat mixes with dirt, heart turns cold.
[Chorus]
This the grind, this the creed,
Pourin' pain where the city bleeds.
Days are long, nights are brief,
We lay the world, Men of Concrete.
[Verse 2]
Belly growlin', wallet thin,
Dreams on pause, where do I begin?
Family faces stuck in the frame,
Phone calls distant, voices ain't the same.
Rebar bends, but I can't break,
Buildin' futures, for their sake.
[Chorus]
This the grind, this the creed,
Pourin' pain where the city bleeds.
Days are long, nights are brief,
We lay the world, Men of Concrete.
[Bridge]
Hammers singin', midnight's toll,
Sacrifice carves out the soul.
Beneath the skyline, we disappear,
Ghosts in hard hats, pioneers.
[Chorus]
This the grind, this the creed,
Pourin' pain where the city bleeds.
Days are long, nights are brief,
We lay the world, Men of Concrete.
