Lyrics
Verse 1
I walk these alleys, city smoke in my lungs,
Dreams heavy as chains, and the nights feel long.
Police lights flashin, mama prayin Im safe,
But the game dont forgive, and the streets dont wait.
Hook (Bluesy refrain)
Ooooh, these hard times got me singin low,
Carryin my pain where the cold winds blow.
From the block to the spotlight, still payin dues,
Gangsta blues, baby these are my gangsta blues.
Verse 2
Came up hungry, turnin hunger to drive,
Every corner taught a lesson just to stay alive.
Homies lost in the struggle, names etched in stone,
Im grindin with their voices, never walkin alone.
Bridge
Whiskey in my veins, but the truth cuts deeper,
Eyes on the prize, but the climb gets steeper.
If the Lord dont catch me, then the night just might,
But Ill play these blues til the morning light.
