Diamond Drip

Chain so heavy, neck doing reps

Pockets obese, they skipping the steps

City on fire, my shadow's the smoke

Words cut deep, my tongue's the stiletto poke

Bag full of sins, zip won't close

Life's roulette, but the wheel won't slow

Grit on my teeth, gold in my grin

Every loss a scratch, every win a sin

Diamond drip, it don't fade, it don't flake

Came from the mud, now the shine ain't fake

Diamond drip, yeah, the cut runs deep

What I sow in the dark, in the light I reap

Rims keep spinning, my mind stay stuck

Clock hands itching, my time costs bucks

Hustle like a shark, no pause, just swim

Got the juice in my veins, but the odds stay slim

Buried my fears, roots turned to gold

Heart still frozen, but the fire don't fold

Streetlights flicker, my shadow stay tall

Even in the abyss, I still want it all

Mirror, mirror, who's king of the night?

Reflections murky, but the crown fits tight

Chains clink loud, that's my orchestra play

Echoes of the grind, can't wipe them away
