Pitfall Prayers

From the blocks where the street lights flicker low Concrete jungles where the young dreams overflow Sirens wail like ghosts in the midnight haze Hustlin' shadows, chasin' brighter days Pockets empty but the fire in my soul burns Dodgin' pitfalls, turnin' lessons into turns Mama's prayers echo through the trap house walls While the bass hits hard, answerin' the calls Rapid rhythms in my veins Hot hats, snappin' faith, 808s Thumpin' like a heartbeat, sealin' my escape Southern roots, deep Atlanta, nights alive Where the struggle cars, kings from the deprived Trap life, call it, boomin' through the pain Odo to my cries, wash away the rain Street tails whisper in the bass, we trust From the dirt to the prone Risin' from the dust, yeah, we trap out Hearts heavy with the load But the beat keeps pushin' on this endless road Trap life, yeah, it's how we know Somethin' soon, let the high hats flow Whispers in the alley, deals done in the dark Eyes on the prize, ignitin' that spark Lost brothers to the game, ghosts in my rearview Put up in these bars, keep the memory true Synthesize it, hum like the city's restless side Stair rolls crack like thunder in the sky From the corner store to the stage lights gleamin' We flip the script turn survival into dreamin' Emotional scars, but the triumph tastes sweet Aggressive moves, say no girl that's incomplete Irving James crown, electronic fire Moody nights, feel the empire we inspire Trap life callin', boomin' through the pain Odo to my cries, wash away the rain Street tails whisper in the bass, we trust From the dirt to the prone Risin' from the dust, yeah, we trap out Hearts heavy with the load But the beat keeps pushin' on this endless road Trap life, yeah, it's how we know Somethin' soon, let the high hats flow Slow it down until the now we chain Southern rap echoes, forever in the game Intense and raw, we own the night Triumphant moves, through the fight Trap life callin', through the now we playin' Southern rap echoes, intense and raw We own the night Trap life callin' boomin' through the load But the beat keeps pushin' on this endless road Trap life whisper in the bass, we know Somethin' soon, let the high hats flow Yeah, travel in the harder Out to the true But the story don't Street life eternal, my forever friend My forever friend
