American Gangster

[Concrete Jungle: Chrome and Concrete Dreams] [Intro] Yo, check the mic, one two, can you hear? From the streets of chaos, crystal clear. Concrete jungle, where the shadows creep, アメリカギャングスタ, runnin' deep. Yo, listen close, this ain't no game, Just survival, etched in blood and flame. [Verse1] Sunrise paints the city gold and gray, Another hustle starts another day. Lowrider glidin', chrome is gleamin' bright, Dodgin' sirens in the fading light. Got my crew beside me, loyal to the end, Respect is earned, not freely lent. We built this empire, brick by bloody brick, Watch your back, 'cause snakes move quick. Dollars stackin', reachin' for the sky, Ain't no lookin' back, we gonna fly. [Pre-Chorus] Pressure builds, the heat is on my face, Enemies lurkin', every time and place. Gotta stay sharp, gotta stay aware, This life we live, it isn't fair. Loyalty's tested, trust is hard to find, Leaving yesterday and it all behind. But through the smoke, a vision starts to gleam We're living out this chrome and concrete dream. [Chorus] We rise from the ashes, like a phoenix in the night, アメリカギャングスタ, bathed in neon light. Concrete dreams are buildin' high, Watch us conquer, watch us fly. From the bottom, striving for the top, Never gonna stop, never gonna drop. The streets are ours, forever we roam, This concrete jungle is our home. [Verse2] Remember days, with nothin' but a dime, Now we rockin' diamonds, killin' time. Private jets and mansions in the hills, But the hunger's there, it never stills. Lost some soldiers, paid the ultimate price, Their memories linger, like the morning ice. Gotta keep movin', gotta stay ahead, Or end up buried, six feet dead. The game is dirty, the stakes are high, We risk it all beneath the watchful eye. [Chorus] We rise from the ashes, like a phoenix in the night, アメリカギャングスタ, bathed in neon light. Concrete dreams are buildin' high, Watch us conquer, watch us fly. From the bottom, striving for the top, Never gonna stop, never gonna drop. The streets are ours, forever we roam, This concrete jungle is our home. [Bridge] They try to break us, try to hold us down, But we keep climbin', wearin' the crown. Built from nothin', carved our own way, Hear what I'm sayin', listen today. The concrete cracks, the steel starts to rust, But our ambition burns with righteous gust. Yeah, we keep pushing, defying the pain, This legacy's ours, etched in the rain. [Chorus] We rise from the ashes, like a phoenix in the night, アメリカギャングスタ, bathed in neon light. Concrete dreams are buildin' high, Watch us conquer, watch us fly. From the bottom, striving for the top, Never gonna stop, never gonna drop. The streets are ours, forever we roam, This concrete jungle is our home. [Outro] Yeah, アメリカギャングスタ forever, This ain't a trend, this a never-ender. Concrete jungle, where we reside, With nothin' to hide, but our endless pride. Fade to black, the story's told, In the city's heart, forever bold.
