Lyrics
Street Life
yeah
(Verse 1)
Yeah, livin’ in the shadows where the sun don’t shine,
Hustlin’ through the struggle, just tryin’ to survive,
Got dreams in my pocket but the world’s so cold,
Every corner that I turn, another story unfolds.
They say the streets raise you, teach you how to fight,
But every day’s a battle, man, it’s hard to see the light,
Brothers gettin’ locked up, sisters cryin’ at night,
In this concrete jungle, you either wrong or you right.
(Chorus)
Street life, livin’ on the edge,
Chasin’ dreams but we stand on a ledge,
Heart full of hope, but the pain won’t fade,
In this street life, gotta make our own way.
Street life, livin’ on the edge,
Chasin’ dreams but we stand on a ledge,
Heart full of hope, but the pain won’t fade,
In this street life, gotta make our own way.
(Verse 2)
See the kids on the block playin’ games with fate,
Learnin’ quick, life’s a gamble, better play it straight,
Every move calculated, can’t afford to be weak,
In the land of the lost, hear the silence speak.
Got homies in the struggle, fightin’ for a better day,
But the system’s so broken, just tryin’ to find a way,
Voices of the fallen echo through the night,
We carry their dreams, keep their spirits in sight.
(Chorus)
Street life, livin’ on the edge,
Chasin’ dreams but we stand on a ledge,
Heart full of hope, but the pain won’t fade,
In this street life, gotta make our own way.
Street life, livin’ on the edge,
Chasin’ dreams but we stand on a ledge,
Heart full of hope, but the pain won’t fade,
In this street life, gotta make our own way.
(Talking)
Yeah, we rise, we fall, but we never lose hope,
In this game of survival, we learn how to cope,
With every step forward,
So here’s to the dreamers, the fighters, the brave,
In the heart of the struggle, we find what we crave,
Street life ain’t easy, but we’ll hold our heads high,
(Chorus)
Street life, livin’ on the edge,
Chasin’ dreams but we stand on a ledge,
Heart full of hope, but the pain won’t fade,
In this street life, gotta make our own way.
Street life, livin’ on the edge,
Chasin’ dreams but we stand on a ledge,
Heart full of hope, but the pain won’t fade,
In this street life, gotta make our own way.
