longest pain is the shortest

Late night, city lights, I'm rolling with the crew, Got the pack on my lap, yeah, we know what to do. Smoke rise, mind high, lost in the haze, Counting up these dollars, got me stuck in a maze. Strapped up, stay alert, can't let 'em catch me slippin', In the shadows, we move, always ready, never trippin'. Whispers in the alley, money calls like a friend, Trust is rare in this life, gotta watch who you blend. Eyes wide, heart cold, but the vibe stay chill, Life's a gamble, roll the dice, you know the thrill. Hustle hard, play it smart, keep the circle tight, In the dark where we spark, living life outta sight. Late nights, street fights, but we keep it Strapped up, stay alert, can't let 'em catch me slippin', In the shadows, we move, always ready, never trippin'. Whispers in the alley, money calls like a friend, Trust is rare in this life, gotta watch who you blend. Eyes wide, heart cold, but the vibe stay chill, Life's a gamble, roll the dice, you know the thrill. Hustle hard, play it smart, keep the circle tight, In the dark where we spark, living life outta sight. Late nights, street fights, but we keep it low-key, Dreams of better days, but this life chose me. Smoke clouds, sound loud, let it drown out the pain, In this game, we just play, but the struggle remains.
