In the city where the shadows creep and linger I don't let it get to me. Concrete jungles where the lost souls weep, graffiti on the walls, whispers in the night, a life of depression a twisted fight. Then comes long distance face timing with the lady picked up the phone what's up, what's up? You good, I'm hood? I'm good, not much But I noticed something was wrong can't even look me in the eyes cause you know I'd be the one to know that you got a tracker on your phone, dsgarding my name I know that you've been telling lies got all the passwords to my shit, I see you texting other girls on my accounts

Gangs on the corner, eyes filled with rage, young bloods chasing dreams, trapped in a cage, broken homes, shattered dreams no way out of your jail cell, yah I'm a dick and guess what you ratted yourself out by sayin' first bank with the tank and court no limit, how does it feel knowing that you stole all my information frauding me this ain't the life you want cause all I gotta do is say 'pull the trigger'

They call it survival, it's more like hell when I have cancer and need stuff for my house, streets paved with sorrow, stories they won't tell, loaded guns, cold stones secrets in their eyes a dance with my dad would be great to have with my dad who aas in the military and left a truck for his daughter, yet funny how others got inherited money yet the information matches all my documents that I have in black in white now take that battle into the ring with the devil himself ohhh did I forget to mention if my mother is married to the devil what does that make me.. where hope slowly dies

Gangs on the corner, eyes filled with rage, young bloods chasing dreams, trapped in a cage, yah I'm a dick and guess what you ratted yourself out by sayin' first bank with the tamk and court no limit, how does it feel knowing that you stole all my information fraiding me this ain't the life you want cause all I gotta do is say 'pull the trigger'

BRIDGE
Mama cries herself to sleep, praying for her son, caught up in the game, bullets and drugs he's on the run, his innocence lost, replaced by a cold steel heart, in this concrete jungle survival is an art

Gangs on the corner, eyes filled with rage, young bloods chasing dreams, trapped in a cage, broken homes, shattered dreams no way out, this ain't the life you want

The streets are a battlefield where loyalty is thinking, brothers turn into enemies, and the cycle begins torn between loyalty and self-preservation a deadly game of chess, no salvation

Gangs on the corner, eyes filled with rage, young bloods chasing dreams, trapped in a cage, broken homes shattered dreams, no way out this ain't the life you want

So let this be a warning, a cautionary tale, the alleging of rhe streets, the sirens wail, choose a different path, break rhe chains that bind, for in this dark world, there's a light you can find within you so do better and don't follow in my steps people can think I'm a rat but I had to do what I had to do because I was the one who was rapped I don't need to justify myself to anyone I gotta protect me since I have no one near me or to support me
