Concrete Psalms

[Verse] Yo, check the pulse, feel the city beat Concrete jungle where dreams deceased Sunrise paints murals on brick, cold heat Another day, same old story on repeat Mama's prayers rise, incense and sage Scars etched deep, another turning page Empty promises, locked in a cage Still, hope remains, beyond this earthly stage [Prechorus] Yeah, they try to bury us, deep in the dirt But seeds of resilience, begin to assert [Chorus] We rise! From the ashes, phoenix flight We fight! Through the darkness, towards the light Concrete Psalms! Echo in the night [Verse 2] Cracked sidewalks, mirror shattered dreams Hustle hard, just to cover basic schemes System rigged, playing dirty with fiends Gotta stay sharp, navigate the in-betweens Word is bond, loyalty runs deep Through generations, promises to keep Though the struggle lingers, the climb is steep We keep pushing, secrets that we sweep
