grinding

In the shadows where the real ones dwell, Survivin' in a world, man, you know it’s hell, Countin' every dollar, dreams of livin' well, But the streets keep callin', like a siren’s yell. Heart heavy with the weight of the past, Memories of homies that ain't here to last, Got the hustle in my veins, never movin' fast, But I’m steady on the grind, gotta make it last. (Verse 2) 21 reasons why I’m fightin' for my life, Every struggle, every scar, sharpened like a knife, From the block to the booth, man, I’m payin' the price, Pourin' out my soul, like a sacrificial rite. A soldier in this game, got my mind on the prize, Echoes of the legends, hear their wisdom rise, With a vision so clear, no room for the lies, In the land of the lost, where the truth survives. Ice cold vibes, but my heart stay warm, Rising from the dirt, like a flower in a storm. Hustle in my veins, yeah, I’m built to last, Chasing all my dreams, never living in the past, Got the city on my back, watch me take the throne, In this concrete jungle, I’m never alone. Enemies lurk, but I keep my circle tight, Stayin’ true to myself, yeah, I’m ready for the fight, Came from the bottom, now I’m shining like a star, In the shadows, you can find me, know exactly who we are. Real ones by my side, loyalty's the code, Navigating through the night, on this winding road, Every step I take, yeah, I’m claiming my space, In the shadows where we thrive, you can’t dim our grace. Hit the court, yeah, I'm ready for the game, Dribble like a wizard, got that fire in my veins. Shooting threes from deep, call me the sniper, In the zone, no doubt, I'm the ultimate viper. Fast breaks, I’m flying, like I’m on a jet, Defenders in my rearview, they ain't a threat. Cross over, step back, watch the crowd ignite, Every move I make, it's a highlight tonight. (Verse 2) Dunking on the haters, put 'em on a poster, Rising to the top, I'm the league's roller coaster. From the West to the East, they all know my name, Chasing rings, yeah, I'm in it for the fame. Final seconds ticking, pressure's on my chest, One shot, one chance, gotta give it my best. Legends in the making, I’m carving my path, In this NBA life
