Streets Raised Me

Yeah, from the bottom where they doubt you

Ghetto raised me, no cap

Concrete jungle where the strong survive

Corner store dreams, we just tryna stay alive

Sirens soundtrack to my lullaby

Mama workin' doubles just to get by, skrrt

Every block got a story, every wall got a name

We ain't playin' for the glory, we just playin' the game

Hoodies up when the winter cold bite

Streetlights flicker, that's our spotlight, yeah

This the ghetto, where we came from nothing

Turned the struggle into something

Every scar tell a lesson, no frontin'

Streets raised me, now I'm stuntin', let's go

This the ghetto, where the real ones at

Where we hustle for the fam, that's facts

Rose from the pavement, no lookin' back

Ghetto in my veins, yeah I carry that

Chain-link fences and the broken dreams

But we built different, know what that means

Cyphers on the stoop, beats from the phone

Made a way out when they left us alone, uh

They tried to box us in these four walls

But we broke through, now we stand tall

For my day ones who ain't make it out

I'ma get this win, that's what it's about, sheesh

This the ghetto, where we came from nothing

Turned the struggle into something

Every scar tell a lesson, no frontin'

Streets raised me, now I'm stuntin', let's go

This the ghetto, where the real ones at

Where we hustle for the fam, that's facts

Rose from the pavement, no lookin' back

Ghetto in my veins, yeah I carry that

Ghetto made me who I am today, gang

Forever reppin' where I came from, yeah
