Street Chronicles
oldschoolbeatgrittyhip-hop
[Verse] From the concrete jungle, hustle never fumble, Words tumble, life's a crazy mumble jumble. Dodging 5-0, they tryna cage the beast, In the belly of the beast, searching for a feast. [Verse 2] Chains on the block, shining in the moonlight, Eyes on the prize, plotting through the night. No fairy tales, just graffiti on the walls, Vivid stories told, echoes in the halls. [Chorus] Stacking paper, dreams on the rise, Blood, sweat, tears, no disguise. Street tales, legends born and made, In the shadows, where the real ones stayed. [Verse 3] Neighbors acting strange, clutching on they purse, City full of rage, turning blessings to a curse. On the corner slinging, trying to stay afloat, Life ain't no joke, just chasing that note. [Bridge] Skyscrapers loom, dreams touch the sky, Survival's a hustle, never question why. In the alleyways, secrets whispered low, Ain't no guarantees, just the ebb and flow. [Chorus] Stacking paper, dreams on the rise, Blood, sweat, tears, no disguise. Street tales, legends born and made, In the shadows, where the real ones stayed.
