grew up in the shadows

Yeah, grew up in the shadows, streets cold as ice, Had to make moves, roll the dice, pay the price. Caught up in the chaos, dark nights with the crew, But deep down inside, knew I had to break through. Life in the fast lane, danger in the air, Had a heart full of dreams, but it led me nowhere. Took a step back, saw the path I was on, Had to cut the ties, now I’m finally gone. No more street lights, just the stars in the sky, Facing my fears, now I’m ready to fly. Left the gang life, found my strength within, A soldier of my own, now the real fight begins. No more looking over my shoulder, I’m free, Built from the struggle, now I’m just being me. Turned my pain into power, watch me rise from the dust, Had a tough childhood, but now it’s all about trust. Nothing to be afraid.
