Crime

(Verse 1) In the shadows where the hustlers roam, Dreams turn to ashes, call the block my home. Streets whisper stories, echoes of the past, Lost souls chasing paper, how long will it last? (Verse 2) Cold nights, heart heavy with the weight of sin, Every deal I made, felt like I was born to win. But the price of the game, it ain't just the cash, Friends turned foes, in a flash, gone like ash. (Verse 3) Momma’s tears fell, she prayed for my soul, While I plotted on the corner, trying to reach my goal. But in the rearview, I see the pain I spread, A king on the rise, but a crown made of dread. (Verse 4) Life in the fast lane, moving bricks like art, But every ounce of greed, it tears me apart. Reflections in the mirror, can’t escape my fate, Counting all my blessings, but I’m still feeling hate. (Verse 5) Dreams of a mansion, but the struggle is real, Got a heart full of scars, but I’m learning to heal. Every choice I made, it carved out my path, But the shadows still linger, like a ghost from the past. (Verse 6) Wisdom in the streets, yeah, I learned from the pain, Every loss a lesson, every tear like rain. Now I’m spitting truth, with the weight on my chest, Reflecting on the hustle, I’m just trying my best. (Verse 7) So I pen these lines, with a hope for tomorrow, From the depths of despair, to the heights of sorrow. Life’s a canvas painted with the colors of crime, But I’m searching for redemption, one verse at a time.
