it's a constant fight Survival of the fittest, gotta stay alive Raised in the concrete jungle, no place for weak Every step I take, gotta watch my back, sneak Dodging bullets and hustlers, it's a daily grind No time for sleep, gotta stay on my grind Eyes wide open, always alert In this jungle of concrete, you gotta stay alert (Verse 2) Every corner I turn, danger lurks around Gotta move swiftly, make no sound Friends turn to foes, snakes in disguise But I'm streetwise, I see through their lies The struggle is real, but I won't back down I'm the king of the streets, wear the thorny crown Through the trials and tribulations, I rise above Surviving these streets, it's all about love (Bridge) These streets may be rough, but I'm tougher than steel I won't let them break me, I won't let them steal My dreams and my hopes, I'm destined for more Surviving the streets, I'll even the score (Outro) In this concrete jungle, I'll always shine bright Surviving these streets, I'll continue to fight No matter the odds, I'll never retreat I'm the true definition of surviving the streets
