Pavement Scars

In the shadows where the days turn cold Memories linger from the stories told Waking up to sirens cutting through the night Chasing dreams that vanish in a fight Brothers falling one by one But we hold the line hustling hard Just to make the time payment scars From the endless chase heartbeats Heavy with the inner grace window Cracked from the weight of years We call our names through the sweat and tears Street life calls with a jagged edge Where we rise and fall on the razor's edge Through the pain we find our way In these streets we live another day Night's a plot and under faded lights Loyalty tested in the darkest fights Losing friends to the game we play Yet we push forward calm What may sounds are laughter mixed with the tears Building empires from our deepest fears Every corner hides another test We wear the scars like a badge of rest Looking back on the paths we chose With fire in our souls that never Never froze Aggressive stance against the odds we face Moments frozen in this endless race So we carry on through the grit and guan And grind street forever in the mind Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
