City still awake
Eyes on every corner
Breath in every alley
We run the streets
Headlights in my rearview
Still don’t blink
Dust on my jeans from the concrete kings
If you know
You know what the hunger means
Yeah
We
We run the streets
Talking big plans in a 2-door seat
Mama said “pray
” I said “watch this week”
Till the wheels fall off and the sirens sleep
We run the streets
Came up where the windows cracked
Winter in the kitchen
Wore two coats
Facts
Turn a late bill to a late-night scheme
Turn a side road to a front-line team
Twelve sweep through
We move like smoke
Whole block raised me
That’s blood
That’s oath
You see noise
I see code in the static
I see routes in the rush
Automatic
We run the streets
Headlights in my rearview
Still don’t blink
Dust on my jeans from the concrete kings
If you know
You know what the hunger means
Yeah
We
We run the streets
Talking big plans in a 2-door seat
Mama said “pray
” I said “watch this week”
Till the wheels fall off and the sirens sleep
We run the streets
Who’s gonna vouch when the sky goes red?
Who’s gonna ride when the gas runs dead?
Look to my left
Look to my right
Same few faces in every fight
We run the streets
Headlights in my rearview
Still don’t blink
Dust on my jeans from the concrete kings
If you know
You know what the hunger means
Yeah
We
We run the streets
Talking big plans in a 2-door seat
Mama said “pray
” I said “watch this week”
Till the wheels fall off and the sirens sleep
We run the streets
