[Verse 1]
Michigan city thuggin’
Snow on the curb
I was young with a look
That said more than a word
East side living
Where the pressure don’t sleep
Same old corners
Tryna pull me too deep
Mama said move smart
Keep your head on a swivel
I seen love turn cold
Seen a smile turn brittle
I’m on the block with it
Heart hard, face calm
If the night get loud
I still move like a bomb
[Pre-Chorus]
They know my name out here
When I come through slow
Dark windshield, no fear
Let ’em all know
I don’t talk too much
I let the steps speak
Every loss made me tough
Every win still sweet
[Chorus]
Redrum on the boulevard
Redrum on the boulevard
East side living hard
East side living hard
Money over bitches
Money over bitches
Keep my circle small
Keep my circle vicious
[Verse 2]
I seen brothers switch lanes
For a chain and a post
Seen a fake one grin
Then disappear like a ghost
I was built from the grind
From the rain to the brake lights
Had to learn real quick
Who was wrong and who’s all right
Now I’m cool in the cut
But the hunger still stay
Every dollar got a story
Every scar paid away
If you reach for my peace
Then you reach for your end
I don’t need many hands
I just need one real friend
[Pre-Chorus]
They know my name out here
When I come through slow
Dark windshield, no fear
Let ’em all know
I don’t talk too much
I let the steps speak
Every loss made me tough
Every win still sweet
[Chorus]
Redrum on the boulevard
Redrum on the boulevard
East side living hard
East side living hard
Money over bitches
Money over bitches
Keep my circle small
Keep my circle vicious
[Bridge]
I been through the fire
Still I walk with a calm
Heavy in my chest
But my face stay strong
If the past come back
I don’t run, I rise
Same street, same hurt
But a new set of eyes
[Final Chorus]
Redrum on the boulevard
Redrum on the boulevard
East side living hard
East side living hard
Money over bitches
Money over bitches
Keep my circle small
Keep my circle vicious
Redrum on the boulevard
Redrum on the boulevard
Michigan city thuggin’
Michigan city thuggin’
