Intro: Sound of factory machines, sirens Verse 1: Yo, born in the belly of a steel beast Where dreams rust and souls are deceased Concrete jungle, a cold embrace Poverty's the norm, a never-ending race From cradle to grave, a struggle to survive Hustlin' for scraps, just to stay alive Smokestacks paint the sky with a toxic hue While we drown in debt, with nothing new Chorus: Concrete jungle, where hope's a myth Trapped in the system, a hopeless thrift Broken families, shattered lives In this urban hell, where nobody thrives We're fighting for a chance, a better day But the odds are stacked against us, come what may Verse 2: School bells ring, but knowledge is scarce Droppin' out early, a bitter farce Gang violence, a constant threat Young lives lost, a debt that's yet to be met Empty promises, politicians' lies While we're caught in the crossfire, payin' the price Addiction's grip, a downward spiral Trapped in the shadows, a world so dire Chorus: Concrete jungle, where hope's a myth Trapped in the system, a hopeless thrift Broken families, shattered lives In this urban hell, where nobody thrives We're fighting for a chance, a better day But the odds are stacked against us, come what may Bridge: But we won't give up, we'll rise above Find our strength, fueled by love Building a future, brick by brick Breaking free from these chains, that's the trick Chorus: Concrete jungle, where hope's a myth Trapped in the system, a hopeless thrift Broken families, shattered lives In this urban hell, where nobody thrives We're fighting for a chance, a better day But the odds are stacked against us, come what may Outro: Fading sound of factory machines
