Intro (ad-libs)
Yeah... ooh, woo, yeah, yeah
Chorus
I risk it all everyday on my block, no brakes, no pause,
Heart cold, hands steady, I move for the cause.
Lose sleep, keep watch, hear the sirens and the knocks,
Money, respect, or a name on a cross—I'm all in on the block.
Verse 1
Wake up to the same sky, same pain in my chest,
Mama calling with prayers but I’m stuck with the stress.
Gotta feed little ones, gotta cover the rent,
Every step could be last, every move got a threat.
Seen my brothers fall slow, seen the headlines and the talk,
So I hustle in the shadows, keep my circle locked.
Trust cost heavy, loyalty cost more,
I give what I can, still they want more.
Pre-Chorus
Nights lonely, streets loud, loyalty tested in the cold,
I keep a medal for the fallen, keep their stories told.
If I go down, I go down with my soul intact,
No switch, no snitch — that's a fact.
Chorus
I risk it all everyday on my block, no brakes, no pause,
Heart cold, hands steady, I move for the cause.
Lose sleep, keep watch, hear the sirens and the knocks,
Money, respect, or a name on a cross—I'm all in on the block.
Verse 2
Seen tears turn to ice on a winter night,
Seen smiles fade quick when the wrong lights shine bright.
I hustle for peace, but the peace cost a price,
Pray the scale tip before we lose another life.
Keep a picture in my chain, look at it when I ride,
It remind me why I grind, why I swallow my pride.
Enemies lurk, but I steady my stride,
If they come for mine, know I’m ready to collide.
Bridge
No glamor in the danger, just truth in the fight,
I balance love and war underneath these street lights.
I’d rather choke on success than drown in regret,
So I risk it for the ones who ain’t got nothing yet.
Breakdown (spoken/rapped)
All day, all night—blood, sweat, and loss,
Counting blessings through pain, counting coins and the cost.
They’ll remember we tried, remember we fought,
Remember we built from the cold, from the rot.
Chorus (final)
I risk it all everyday on my block, no brakes, no pause,
Heart cold, hands steady, I move for the cause.
Lose sleep, keep watch, hear the sirens and the knocks,
Money, respect, or a name on a cross—I'm all in on the block.
Outro (soft ad-libs)
Ooh... keep watch, keep watch, yeah.
All in—no retreat, no surrender.

See you when I see you
