I see them blue lights flashing, gotta keep moving In the streets, ain't no time for snoozing Got my mind on my money, ain't no time for losing Gotta stay on my grind, ain't no time for choosing Raised in the hood, where the struggle is real Gotta watch my back, gotta stay on my heels Blue lights in the rearview, gotta stay calm Ain't no time for slipping, gotta stay strong Living life on the edge, ain't no time for fear Gotta keep pushing, gotta persevere Blue lights shining bright, but I won't back down I'll keep moving forward, won't let them see me drown In the dark alleyways, where the danger lurks Gotta stay alert, gotta watch for the jerks Blue lights flashing, but I won't be caught I'll keep grinding hard, won't let my dreams rot I'm a product of my environment, gotta stay true Blue lights may be chasing, but I'll push through In the streets of the city, where the struggle is real I'll keep moving forward, won't let them steal
