Concrete Crown

Shadows creep where the lights fade low Chasing dreams in the dead of night Hands collared from the grind, I know Every step a fight, holding on tight Echoes whisper secrets in the dark Bills stack high like a mountain wall Hard, heavy, black night that's fought Turning pain into fuel, watch me fall I'm rising up from the concrete cage Hustle hard, no time for the weak Losing thrills in this endless stage Betrayal stings, but I never break 808s boom like my heartbeat swore High hats tick like the clock of fate And this trap I claim was mine Forevermore, survival's my crown I elevate, elevate Friends turn ghosts when the chips go down Loyalty's a myth and the smoke filled in I stack my wins wear them like a crown From empty pockets to the millionaire stare Nights of doubt, but I push through the storm Voices in my head saying, keep it real What's a ghost that I learned to form? From the ashes of loss I seal the deal I'm rising up from the concrete cage Hustle hard, no time for the weak Losing thrills in this endless stage Betrayal stings, but I never break 808s boom like my heartbeat swore High hats tick like the clock of fate And this trap I claim was mine Forevermore, survival's my crown I elevate, elevate Slow it down Feel the weight on my chest Memories only fade to scars But ambition burns putting fears to rest And the rest of the world is gone With my struggle, I shine like a star No chains can hold this fire inside Through the violence of life, I strike Emotional waves crash, but I ride the tide From poverty's grip, I break free, why? I'm rising up from the concrete cage Hustle hard, no time for the weak Losing thrills in this endless stage Betrayal stings, but I never break 808s boom like my heartbeat swore High hats tick like the clock of fate And this trap I claim was mine Forevermore, survival's my crown I elevate, elevate Yeah From the trap I ride Hustle eternal Under neon sky
