Unspoken Truths

Y'all say that you don't know me my emotions never show
But there's some shit inside my head trust me
You just don't wanna know
I could hit you wit it but I spit it in my songs
So next time that you listen and you start to sing along
Pay attention to the words coming out your own damn mouth
Maybe finally you'll know what you've been tryin' to figure out

I'm a product of the streets, where the struggle never ends
Where friends turn foes, and your close ones pretend
Greed and deception is the language that they speak
They smile in your face, but they cut you when you're weak

So I put it in my verses, let the pain out through the beats
Every line's a weapon, every rhyme is the heat

Greed and deception is the language that they speak
They smile in your face, but they cut you when you're weak

So I put it in my verses, let the pain out through the beats
Every line's a weapon, every rhyme is the heat
Every line's a weapon, every rhyme is the heat

My life's a battleground, ain't no peace upon these streets
Every day a hustle, scheming just to meet the needs
Survivin' on the edge, ain't no time for catchin' Z's
Trust ain't given lightly, got my eyes on enemies

So I put it in my verses, let the pain out through the beats
Every line's a weapon, every rhyme is the heat
Try to climb up out this struggle, but the system's got us beat
Only way to numb the pain is lay it down on these sheets
See the darkness in my eyes, it's a tale I can't disguise
Every bruise and every scar, another piece of my disguise
Walking through the fire, ain't no backing down
Fist clenched tight, while I'm wearing the crown
You think you know the half, but you ain't seen the start
Raised up in the trenches where the strong play their part

Dreams big enough to fill up the sky
Caught in the struggle, but I ain't scared to fly
Every verse a testament to battles that I've fought
Pieces of my soul, in the lines that I've taught

So when you hear my story, remember where it began
In the darkness of the alley, with the guile of a man
Each verse a revelation, each line my testament
Fightin' off the demons, tryna find my own ascent

From the bottom to the top, gotta hustle, gotta strive
Livin' out this reality, barely stayin' alive
But I'll keep tellin' my story, through the ink and the pen
This is my truth, over and over again

From the bottom to the top, gotta hustle, gotta strive
Livin' out this reality, barely stayin' alive
But I'll keep tellin' my story, through the ink and the pen
This is my truth, over and over again

Battlin' with shadows, but I'm reachin' for the light
Each day a war zone, every breath is a fight
Trust is a double-edged blade in the dark
Walkin' solo through the alleys, listenin' to my heart
Schemes in the night, cover plots that ain't bright
Stayin' sharp as a razor, always ready for the bite
With every step I take, it's a dance with the unknown
Maneuver through the chaos, makes this city feel like home
Dodgin' bullets of betrayal, ain't no mercy in these zones
But through beats and rhymes, I've carved out my own throne

So I put it in my verses, let the pain out through the beats
Every line's a weapon, every rhyme is the heat
Try to climb up out this struggle, but the system's got us beat
Only way to numb the pain is lay it down on these sheets
See the darkness in my eyes, it's a tale I can't disguise
Every bruise and every scar, another piece of my disguise
I'll keep my head high through every twist and turn
Embedded in these lyrics are the lessons that I learn
Raised from the gutter, where dreams seldom rise
In the depths of the struggle, you can see fire in my eyes

Broken windows, and shattered lives, we push on
Survivors by nature, our legacy lives on
Each rhythm's an escape, from the chains that hold us down
From the corners of the projects to the stages of the town
Tales of hustlers, fighters, the downtrodden kings
In the essence of the beat, it's our pain that it brings
But I'll keep tellin' my story, through the ink and the pen
This is my truth, over and over again
From the bottom to the top, gotta hustle, gotta strive
Livin' out this reality, barely stayin' alive

So I put it in my verses, let the pain out through the beats
Every line's a weapon, every rhyme is the heat
So I put it in my verses, let the pain out through the beats
Only way to numb the pain is lay it down on these sheets
