Rah Rah Rah
Ayo YAH YAH YAH Tayo
INTRO (menacing, whispered)
Tayo…
Talk filthy to ‘em.
Rah…
VERSE 1
Touch by an angel, molested by demons,
Sleep with my eyes open, schemin’ on reasons.
Freddy in my dreams, claw marks on my thinking,
Elm Street thoughts got my sanity limpin’.
Harder than steel when the river start freezin’,
412 raised me, pressure my seasoning.
They want my life, they want breath from my chest,
I tuck faith in my hoodie, hope under duress.
PAT bus pain, I been flattened by fate,
Still crawled out the wreck with a grin full of hate.
Glocks aimed at doom, hear the click before trust,
Every “bro” got a price, every hug got a bust.
On sight in the dark, poles spark like a flash,
Night light up quick when them triggers go clap.
I ain’t scared of the grave, I been dead in my head,
Demons talk reckless, I respond with lead.
HOOK (CHANT, DRILL STYLE)
Rah, rah, demons want war, I say bet,
Steel City heart, put the fear in they chest.
No peace in my sleep, no love in my steps,
If they knock on my soul, I ain’t answerin’ threats.
Rah, rah, angels and demons collide,
I don’t pray with my hands, I survive.
VERSE 2
PTSD knock when the block get quiet,
Heart beat 808s, whole chest in a riot.
Mama cried prayers I ain’t hear till I bled,
Only God I knew wore blue and red.
Friends turn snakes, snakes turn meals,
I don’t trust nothin’ breathin’ that bleed how I feel.
Baptized by rain off the curb, not the church,
Holy water mixed blood, that’s the work.
Demons say quit, I tell ‘em pull up,
This soul heavyweight, you ain’t strong enough.
I done stared in the void, void blinked then ran,
I don’t lose my mind, I expand.
Steel toe kicks to my doubts, crack ribs,
If I fall it’s forward, bite pavement, live.
HOOK (REPEAT, MORE AGGRO)
Rah, rah, demons want war, I say bet,
412 spine, yeah I’m built for the stress.
No halo, no help, just grit and regret,
Try to take my soul, you gon’ die in the attempt.
OUTRO (low, cold)
This ain’t rap.
This is survival footage.
Steel City.
Tayo.
Rah…
