young hood man

(Verse 1) Young kid in the hood, tryna make it right, Streetlights flicker, dreams take flight. Momma workin' late, daddy ain't around, Gotta be the man, stand his ground. (Pre-Chorus) School's a warzone, battles every day, Friends in the game, lost their way. But he keeps pushin', eyes on the prize, Gonna rise above, reach for the skies. (Chorus) Strugglin' to survive, grindin' every night, Hustle in his heart, future in his sight. Life ain't easy, but he'll find a way, From the shadows to the light, he'll see better days. (Verse 2) Gunshots echo, sirens scream, Livin' in a nightmare, chasin' a dream. Hustlin' on the corner, paper in his hand, One step at a time, he'll take a stand. (Pre-Chorus) Hope in his soul, fire in his eyes, Never gonna quit, never compromise. In the face of darkness, he'll find his light, A young man in the hood, ready for the fight. (Chorus) Strugglin' to survive, grindin' every night, Hustle in his heart, future in his sight. Life ain't easy, but he'll find a way, From the shadows to the light, he'll see better days.
