Cream City Hustle

Intro

Uh

Yeah

Straight out the North

Cold as a meat locker

Yeah

Verse 1

Concrete keeps my secrets safe

Walking blocks where shadows stay

Sirens sing all through the night

Frozen slush and flashing light

Forty dollar coat for the cold snap

Staring at the lines on the roadmap

I move quick

I stay thick

Watch the winter wind bite bone

Leaving all these tired marks alone

Pre-Chorus

Money in the velvet pocket lining

Watching how the wet pavement is shining

Keeping my chin tilted up so high

Watching all the black smoke fill the sky

Chorus

Cream City hustle in the freezing rain

Moving through the pleasure and the pain

Stacking up the bread just to keep the heat

Stepping on the cracks of the 27th street

Cream City hustle in the freezing rain

Living life inside the passing lane

Verse 2

Rust on every single gate

Empty cans and heavy fate

Tired faces in the park

Scattered matches in the dark

Building up a kingdom from the scrap pile

Driving through the city in my own style

No peace

No lease

I am looking for a brand new day

Pushing all the heavy clouds away

Pre-Chorus

Money in the velvet pocket lining

Watching how the wet pavement is shining

Keeping my chin tilted up so high

Watching all the black smoke fill the sky

Chorus

Cream City hustle in the freezing rain

Moving through the pleasure and the pain

Stacking up the bread just to keep the heat

Stepping on the cracks of the 27th street

Cream City hustle in the freezing rain

Living life inside the passing lane

Bridge

Underneath the bridge where the river flows

Nobody knows quite how it goes

Nobody knows where the wind blows

Cold steel

Real feel

Broken windows in a row

Waiting for the grass to grow

Chorus

Cream City hustle in the freezing rain

Moving through the pleasure and the pain

Stacking up the bread just to keep the heat

Stepping on the cracks of the 27th street

Cream City hustle in the freezing rain

Living life inside the passing lane
