Thunderous Abyss

Shadows creep on these cracked sidewalks where the sirens scream eternal Clock tuck, low heartbeats like thunder In this jungle, we infernal Blocks of battlefield, rival circle Like wolves in the mist One wrong glance, and it's clipped Flyin' your dreams for best Mama prays at the window But the reaper don't skip no house Pocket's empty, but the pain's heavy Weighin' down like a thousand From the corner store to the trap door We hustle through the storm Blood on the pavement, echoes out of the loss Keepin' my spirit warm Drift deep, for the slaughter that rage High hats, rattlin' chains In this age, we engage Streetlight callin', violence Dancing on the edge, one shout, one drop Now you're clenched to the ledge We ride or we die no mercy in the night Harmonious beats poundin', turn wrong to right From shot to the ass, this the sound of the fight Raw confrontation, then the streetlights bite The streetlights bite Night's blended blurs, glidin' through alleys with a strap in my grip Eyes on the opps, paranoid whispers, every shadow's my trick Heard the wizard betrayal, now it's vengeance in my veins Slide through the fog, leave him slumped in the rain Trap house echo with the ghost of death, still it's gone sour One false move, and it's power turned to hourglass pour In the silence, between shots, I feel the weight of the fallen Souls cry out from the concrete callin' me to the brawlin' But deep in this chaos a flicker of somethin' real Violence like a latoxin', but I can't begin to win Dawn breaks, bloody, but we rise from the ashes like kings Opps scatter like roaches, when the 808s ring The scars of the war we page emotional wreckage But we cage it in this typical cage from the stoop to the boot Spread the truth through the pain, streetlights are sentenced No heroes in this tale, just survivors, fire in the chest Drill forever, echoing, puttin' the streets to the test Droop deep, for the slaughter that rage High hats, rattlin' chains, in this cage we engage Street life callin', violence dancin' on the edge One shot one drop now you pledge to the ledge We ride or we die no mercy in the night Harmonious beats poundin', turn wrong or right From shot to the end, so this the sound of the fight Wrong confrontation, thunder, streetlights bite The streetlights bite The streetlights bite The streetlights bite The streetlights bite
