Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Woke up in the morning, feeling kinda raw,
Had a meal, grabbed my steel, hit the street hardcore,
Dodging cops, left and right, in the old hood,
Up to no good, yeah, you know I'm up to no good.
Looking for some action, something to get into,
But I'm wise now, from the things I've been through,
Life's a struggle, but I hustle, gotta stay true,
In the streets, every day, paying my dues.
(Chorus)
In the old neighborhood, where the streets don't sleep,
Gotta watch your back, where the secrets run deep,
Living life fast, but I'm rolling with the flow,
In the hood, where legends are made, this is how we roll.
(Verse 2)
Raised in the struggle, where the strong survive,
Every day's a hustle, just to stay alive,
From the bottom to the top, yeah, I'm on my grind,
Ain't no stopping me now, I'm ahead of my time.
Got scars on my back, from the battles I've faced,
But I keep pushing forward, never losing my pace,
In the concrete jungle, where the lions roam,
I'm a king in my own right, sitting on my throne.
(Bridge)
From the block parties to the corner stores,
We hustle hard, yeah, that's for sure,
In the city streets, where the stories unfold,
I'm a product of the hood, this is how we roll.
[Verse 3]
From the alleys to the rooftops, I roam these streets.(yeah)
Every corner tells a story, every face I meet,
Got dreams in my mind, but reality bites,
In the struggle for success, gotta fight. (the good fight.)
I've seen friends fall, and enemies rise,
In this concrete jungle, where only the strong. (surviv)
But I keep my head high, and my eyes on the prize,
In the old neighborhood, where the spirit never dies.
(Outro)
So if you see me in the streets, know I'm holding it down,
In the old neighborhood, where legends are crowned,
From sunrise to sunset, yeah, we never fold,
This is the life we live, this is how we roll.
