[Verse 1]
Lights flicker, but the streets stay dark,
Hot asphalt, cold souls leaving their mark.
Everybody runs, nobody knows why,
Chasing survival while the city just sighs.
Mic turns to weapon, words turn to shield,
I spit the truth they hide in the field.
System’s a cage, dressed up like school,
Learn the lesson wrong, you get played like a fool.
[Chorus]
City that never sleeps, watch my step,
One wrong move, they trap me in debt.
Heavy rhythm, heart made of steel,
Hip hop’s my scream, my pain is real.
[Verse 2]
Walls speak, but nobody hears,
Graffiti’s poetry defying the years.
Concrete has blood, tracks of despair,
But also resistance, courage, care.
Call me crazy ‘cause I won’t be quiet,
Better free and loud than stuck in their riot.
Life comes at a cost, but I pay in beats,
Every rhyme I drop lays bricks in the streets.
[Chorus]
City that never sleeps, watch my step,
One wrong move, they trap me in debt.
Heavy rhythm, heart made of steel,
Hip hop’s my scream, my pain is real.
Lights flicker, but the streets stay dark,
Hot asphalt, cold souls leaving their mark.
Everybody runs, nobody knows why,
Chasing survival while the city just sighs.
Mic turns to weapon, words turn to shield,
I spit the truth they hide in the field.
System’s a cage, dressed up like school,
Learn the lesson wrong, you get played like a fool.
[Chorus]
City that never sleeps, watch my step,
One wrong move, they trap me in debt.
Heavy rhythm, heart made of steel,
Hip hop’s my scream, my pain is real.

Musikstyle
nd fast hi-hats. Deep, minimalist bass. Occasional siren and metallic echo samples to give the streets an oppressive, alive vibe. Aggressive flow, rapid-fire rhymes, dramatic pauses.
