Street Cipher

Yeah

I was built in the rain with a concrete crack

No silver spoon, had to learn how to bring it back

Eyes on the prize, but the night's red cold

Every scar on my skin got a story told

I heard the city talk, I learned to cope

Keep the circle tight when the pressure load

Steps on the block like a drum in the dark

One spark, a hope can ignite that heart

We keep moving, never folding, never breaking down

From the pressure and the pain, we still hold our ground

On these off streets, we survive, we adapt, we rise

With the fire in the chest and the truth in our eyes

Now the chain might shine, but the grind came first

Had to wrestle with doubt when the dream felt cursed

From the basement lows to the rooftop view

I stay locked on a mission, let the beat pull through

If the world went cold, I'd still stand tall

Every loss made me sharp, but every win made me cold

Regard to the ones in the struggle, keep your faith on cue

What they tried to bury only grew in the blue

We keep moving, never folding, never breaking down

From the pressure and the pain, we still hold our ground

On these hard streets, we survive, we adapt, we rise

Put the fire in the chest and the truth in the eyes
