Jah's Syncopated Sunrise

Shadows creep on the block When the streetlights figure low-clock In my waist, heart heavy from the post I know paper broken dreams Concrete vein that's from the dawn Build stacked like body Survival's a blade to the throat One wrong move in this jungle And your story's afloat One wrong move in this jungle And your story's afloat I see my brother's eyes I hollow Lost in the chase, chasing that paper through the haze No time for grace Bullets whisper secrets in the midnight air Every corner's a trap Drill light, we slide through the night No mercy in sight, 808s boom like the shots that ignite Street kings rising, falling in the fight Blood on the pavement under city lights We grind till we break no peace in the game My pops get erased remember the name Drill light cold steel in the paint We claiming the scores on hard not the stays the same Call it the protection, the walls, we did the face Now he spots my space High hats rattle like chains Hold the drag from the trap To the grave with the flag in the jack Pockets empty, but the clips always Fall eyes on the prize pool, the trigger stayed cool Whispers of revenge echo through the alleyways Playbacks of shadow that never decays Moms pray in the kitchen Tears mixed with the steam But the straight streets call louder than any dream We build dams on rubble We build empires on rubble Thrones made of rust Trust going deeper In the dirt and the dust Slow it down for a second Feel the weight on my chest All this violence, is it curse or a blessing? Drill light, we slide through the night No mercy in sight, 808s boom like the shots that ignite Street kings rising, falling in the fight Blood on the pavement under city lights We grind till we break no peace in the game Ops get erased, remember the name Drill life cold steel in the pain we claim And the spoils on hard not the stays the same Drill light Pickles fade in the dark We keep moving, leaving our mark Yeah It's the of the world
