Lyrics
Intro
Yeah, real life, talkin' on my life, for real
Streets been cold, but my wrist on chill
Verse 1
Bulletproof dreams, got scars I don’t show
Stackin’ my paper, I’m countin’ the dough
Enemies lurk but I move on my own
Trustin’ nobody, I roll on my own
Eyes in the back, always watchin’ the scene
Cashed out my pain, now my grill stay clean
Never had nothin’, I came from the dirt
Made it to somethin’, now haters get hurt
Chorus
Runnin’ through the night, never lookin’ back
Holdin’ down my block, keep it all intact
All these snakes wanna see me crack
But I came too far, can’t let it go slack
Verse 2
Hustle in veins, I rely on the grind
Life on the wire, still walkin’ the line
Mind on protect, keep my circle tight
No love for foes who be hidin’ from sight
Rumors and cops, they be workin’ in sync
City of struggle, it push me to brink
Heart on my sleeve but my soul stay ice
Paid with my blood, never paid with the price
Chorus
Runnin’ through the night, never lookin’ back
Holdin’ down my block, keep it all intact
All these snakes wanna see me crack
But I came too far, can’t let it go slack
Bridge
Cold world, gotta keep that peace by the side
Fake friends talk, but they ready to hide
Stories they tell, but they never see pain
Out of the mud, I was built by the rain
Verse 3
Chains on my neck, but still I feel free
Battled those nights with no food, just belief
Momma said pray, but my hands had to eat
Dreams ain’t enough when you grow in the street
Shadows behind me, they hope I would fall
But I ran up a check, now I answer no calls
From corners to courts, now they see what I made
Respect ain’t a game, that’s a price that I paid
Chorus
Runnin’ through the night, never lookin’ back
Holdin’ down my block, keep it all intact
All these snakes wanna see me crack
But I came too far, can’t let it go slack
Outro
Back in the day, had to fight for my name
Hustled in silence, they playin' they games
Now when I pull up, respect on the face
Loyalty real, never run in no race
Pain in my past but it push me ahead
One hand on hope, other counting my bread
Streets turn to legends, the real never die
I made my own way so my legacy ride
Never forget who was down at the start
Kept every lesson engraved in my heart
From nothin’ I rose, never run from my truth
Another cold night, but I step in the proof
Lessons I learned, put the pain in my drive
Watching the fakes try to mimic my stride
Made through the trials when they prayed I’d fold
Built from the hunger, my story been told
Every mistake, yeah, it made me this raw
Covered in hustle, with pride in my jaw
Windows stay tinted from haters who stalk
Bread on the table, now legends just talk
Never dependent, I carried the weight
Saw all the losses turn fortune to fate
Legacy written on blocks where I walk
Leaving a mark with no need for the talk
