City of Fear
Sixteen and new to the city lights
Walking alone through the streets at night
Mindin' my business, just tryin' to survive
Then a shadow approached, with darkness in his eyes
Cold steel pressed against my head
Heart racing, filled with fuckin' dread
"Give me all you got," that bastard said
In that moment, I wished I was dead
Gun to my head, innocence lost
In a city where safety has a cost
Rough hands bruised my skin
A nightmare world I was livin' in
He took my money, ripped my pride
Left me broken, nowhere to hide
Blood on the pavement, tears in my eyes
A silent scream, no one heard my cries
Beat me senseless, fists like stone
Blood poured out, I felt so alone
Gun's cold barrel smashed my face
Fear and pain, a never-ending race
Gun to my head, innocence lost
In a city where safety has a cost
Rough hands bruised my skin
A nightmare world I was livin' in
Every night, the memories replay
The fear, the pain, won't go away
A city of dreams turned to a nightmare
Left with scars, too deep to repair
Sixteen and shattered, trust betrayed
In the shadows, my innocence laid
Fear in my heart, darkness in my mind
Trying to move on, but I'm forever confined
Cold steel pressed against my head
Heart racing, filled with fuckin' dread
"Give me all you got," that bastard said
In that moment, I wished I was dead
Gun to my head, innocence lost
In a city where safety has a cost
Rough hands bruised my skin
A nightmare world I was livin' in
In the city of fear, I walk alone
A survivor, but the pain's not gone
With every step, the past replays
A haunting reminder of those dark days
Walking alone through the streets at night
Mindin' my business, just tryin' to survive
Then a shadow approached, with darkness in his eyes
Cold steel pressed against my head
Heart racing, filled with fuckin' dread
"Give me all you got," that bastard said
In that moment, I wished I was dead
Gun to my head, innocence lost
In a city where safety has a cost
Rough hands bruised my skin
A nightmare world I was livin' in
He took my money, ripped my pride
Left me broken, nowhere to hide
Blood on the pavement, tears in my eyes
A silent scream, no one heard my cries
Beat me senseless, fists like stone
Blood poured out, I felt so alone
Gun's cold barrel smashed my face
Fear and pain, a never-ending race
Gun to my head, innocence lost
In a city where safety has a cost
Rough hands bruised my skin
A nightmare world I was livin' in
Every night, the memories replay
The fear, the pain, won't go away
A city of dreams turned to a nightmare
Left with scars, too deep to repair
Sixteen and shattered, trust betrayed
In the shadows, my innocence laid
Fear in my heart, darkness in my mind
Trying to move on, but I'm forever confined
Cold steel pressed against my head
Heart racing, filled with fuckin' dread
"Give me all you got," that bastard said
In that moment, I wished I was dead
Gun to my head, innocence lost
In a city where safety has a cost
Rough hands bruised my skin
A nightmare world I was livin' in
In the city of fear, I walk alone
A survivor, but the pain's not gone
With every step, the past replays
A haunting reminder of those dark days
