City Lights

[Verse]
Runnin' through the alleys, city roar feathers
Street life fly, no tether, clock tickin'
Graffiti symphonies, walls speak cryptic
Chain-link memories, every echo explicit
[Verse 2]
Dreams in the shadows, whisperin' chronic
Corner store jewels, truth tonic, dope topic
Neon rivers flow, skyline wild ecstatic
Concrete jungle, verbs flip acrobatic
[Chorus]
City lights flicker, tale told in the glance
Hustle over chance, rhythm make you dance
Grit under nails, stories in the hands
Echo through the canyon, hard life romance
[Verse 3]
Block parties, bass thumpin' heartbeat
Air thick, stories drag down the concrete
Gold tooth glint, sunrise on the horizon
Another day to grip tight, hope's risin'
[Verse 4]
Mural of legends, past kings and queens
Legacy in the ink, truth unseen
Brick beats pulse, rhyme schemes obscene
Every breath a fight, poet’s serene
[Chorus]
City lights flicker, tale told in the glance
Hustle over chance, rhythm make you dance
Grit under nails, stories in the hands
Echo through the canyon, hard life romance
