Verse 1:
I'm from the streets where the pavement's hot,
Where the hustle never stops, and life's a game of cops and robbers.
Crooked cops on every block, they swear they'll keep us safe,
But they're the same ones who pull the trigger and leave us in a daze.

Chorus:
These streets ain't for the faint-hearted,
Gotta keep one eye open, stay alert and guarded.
Snitches gettin' stitches as we navigate through the danger,
But we still gotta keep pushin' to rise up from the anger.

Verse 2:
Grindin' everyday just to make a livin',
But the money's slow comin' and the bills keep piling.
Can barely afford to eat, so I'm tempted to sell,
But the risks are high and the consequences ring like a bell.

Police cruisin' up and down, profiling every face,
Fist bumps to the dealers while showing no grace.
Got the power to make or break, they can ruin your life,
Gotta watch your step, or pay the price.

Chorus:
These streets ain't for the faint-hearted,
Gotta keep one eye open, stay alert and guarded.
Snitches gettin' stitches as we navigate through the danger,
But we still gotta keep pushin' to rise up from the anger.

Verse 3:
Family on my mind, gotta stay sharp and calculated,
Cause one wrong move and your freedom's confiscated.
Enemies lurkin' in the shadows, strategizin' their moves,
Gotta keep my head up, and protect what I love and pursue.

Living in a world of violence, it's either be killed or kill,
Sometimes I feel like the struggle isn't worth the thrill,
But I keep pushin', and never give up the fight,
Cause the sun always rises, even after the darkest night.

Chorus:
These streets ain't for the faint-hearted,
Gotta keep one eye open, stay alert and guarded.
Snitches gettin' stitches as we navigate through the danger,
But we still gotta keep pushin' to rise up from the anger.
