Trap

About

This trap anthem pulses with booming 808 basslines that rumble like urban thunder, layered over rapid hi-hat rolls and crisp snare claps that drive the relentless hustle narrative. Auto-tuned vocals deliver raw tales of street ambition and betrayal with a moody edge, blending synthesized melodies for a triumphant yet melancholic vibe. The production captures Atlanta's gritty essence, with subtle vocal ad-libs echoing the weight of trap life in a bass-heavy electronic flow.

Lyrics

Intro
Ad-libs: Yeah, uh, trap season, feel the weight
Verse 1

Woke up in the shadows, pockets empty like the night, Chasin' dreams on cracked pavement, under flickering lights. Hands calloused from the grind, eyes sharp like a blade, Every move a calculated risk, in this endless charade. Friends turn to foes when the paper starts to stack, Loyalty's a ghost, slippin' through the cracks. I built this empire from whispers and schemes, Nights of no sleep, haunted by broken dreams. The hunger in my chest, it burns like fire inside, Pushin' through the pain, no place left to hide.

Chorus

Trap life got me locked in, chains of gold and regret, Hustlin' for the throne, but the crown's a threat. Wealth whispers sweet, but betrayal cuts deep, In this game of survival, promises we don't keep. Boomin' bass in my veins, hi-hats tickin' the clock, Ambition's my weapon, watch the empire rock. From the dirt to the diamonds, yeah, we rise through the storm, Trap heart beatin' loud, keepin' the fire warm.

Verse 2

Dealt with the devils, shook hands with the dark, Every deal a spark, ignitin' the mark. Poverty's echo still rings in my ear, But success tastes like victory, drownin' the fear. She said forever, but left when the lights got bright, Now I'm solo in the spotlight, fightin' through the night. Violence lurks in the corners, survival's my creed, One wrong step, and it's over, plantin' the seed. I flip the script, turn losses to wins, Hustle never sleeps, where the real grind begins.

Chorus

Trap life got me locked in, chains of gold and regret, Hustlin' for the throne, but the crown's a threat. Wealth whispers sweet, but betrayal cuts deep, In this game of survival, promises we don't keep. Boomin' bass in my veins, hi-hats tickin' the clock, Ambition's my weapon, watch the empire rock. From the dirt to the diamonds, yeah, we rise through the storm, Trap heart beatin' loud, keepin' the fire warm.

Bridge
Ad-libs: Slow it down, feel the weight, uh

Moments of doubt creep in like the fog, Questionin' the path, but I can't turn back now. Betrayed by the closest, scars that never heal, Yet the drive pulls me forward, makes the pain feel real. One more play, one more chance to break free, In this cycle of struggle, whos it gonna be?

Verse 3

Parties fade to memories, empty bottles and lies, Relationships shatter like glass under skies. I chase the ambition, blind to the cost, Wealth builds the walls, but the soul's gettin' lost. Street echoes call, pullin' me back to the edge, Survival's a dance on a razor-sharp ledge. No more illusions, I own every scar, From poverty's grip to the top of the star. Hustlin' eternal, the beat never stops, In this trap symphony, I claim what I've got.

Chorus

Trap life got me locked in, chains of gold and regret, Hustlin' for the throne, but the crown's a threat. Wealth whispers sweet, but betrayal cuts deep, In this game of survival, promises we don't keep. Boomin' bass in my veins, hi-hats tickin' the clock, Ambition's my weapon, watch the empire rock. From the dirt to the diamonds, yeah, we rise through the storm, Trap heart beatin' loud, keepin' the fire warm.

Outro
Ad-libs: Yeah, trap forever, fade out slow

Rise through the storm... keep the fire warm...

Extended hi-hat roll fades
