Breaking Street Illusions
they Wanna know when they'll see me next,
they don't know I only exist on the internet.
but before I take off like a jet,
getting this off my chest.
don't think I got it, I got it.
the weight you deem heavy, I keep in my pockets.
you should change your logic,
I'm just being modest.
Used to chase the shine, thought the streets paved with gold.
Traded dreams for dimes, watched my future unfold.
Same faces, same hustle, concrete jungle's
embrace.
But the charm lost its luster, left a bitter taste.
Now I'm breaking the chains, shattering the illusion.
This concrete ain't a kingdom, it's a path of confusion.
Picked up the pen, my weapon against the lies,
Building my own foundation, reaching for the skies.
