No Love in These Streets (Westside Gripp ft Dontaye)

Intro] (Yeah…) Turn me up… This that pain you can feel through the speakers… West side… [Hook] Ain’t no love in these streets, better watch your back Smile in your face, but they plotting where you at I came from the bottom, had to build me a path Turned my tears into diamonds, put my pain in the bag I been through the fire, I ain’t break, I adapted Lost a lot of people, but I never lost passion They counted me out, now they watching my actions Built from the struggle, now I’m built like a statue (Beat drops) No love… no love… These streets took a lot from us… But they couldn’t take enough… ⸻ [Verse 1] I was young with a dream and a chip on my shoulder, Had the weight of the world but I carried it colder, Every scar on my body got a story attached, Every loss made me stronger, every fall made me snap. I seen brothers turn strangers over money and fame, Seen loyalty disappear when the pressure came, Had to move with my head, had to stay in my lane, Cause the ones yelling loud be the ones with the blame. I don’t talk about pain, I put pain in the booth, Every word that I spit got a piece of the truth, Had to fight through the rain just to find me a roof, Now I’m building an empire they said I couldn’t do. ⸻ [Hook] Ain’t no love in these streets, better watch your back Smile in your face, but they plotting where you at I came from the bottom, had to build me a path Turned my tears into diamonds, put my pain in the bag ⸻ [Verse 2] I’m a product of nights when the lights got low, Had to learn real quick who was friend, who was foe, Had dreams bigger than the block I was raised on, Had to break every chain they tried to place on. Now the bass hit hard when I step in the room, Like the city got a heartbeat inside of the tune, I’m still carrying ghosts but I’m making ‘em move, Every loss gave me wisdom, every pain gave me proof. ⸻ [Outro Hook Variation] No love in these streets… but I’m still standing Came out the mud with my hands still planted They wanted me gone, but they don’t understand it A king gets built when the world tries to damage him.
