(Intro) (Sound of a heavy metal door slamming shut) (Low, rumbling bass line starts vibrating) (Producer tag: "Danger") Yeah. They didn't think I’d make it this far. They thought I was done. Watch this. (Verse 1) I chew on glass and I spit out the sand Built my empire with a broken hand I’m from the gutter where the streetlights flicker Where the skin gets thick and the blood gets thicker Don't talk to me about a heavy load I’ve been dragging my life down a gravel road Every scar on my body is a map of the war I’ve been knocked down, face flat on the floor But I bounce back harder like a rubber band Snap back, smack you right where you stand! I got ice in my veins, I got fire in my lungs I speak the language of the sharpest tongues You want a battle? You better bring a tank ‘Cause I got nothing left to lose in the bank! (Chorus) (Aggressive, shouted vocals) Step back! I’m coming through the gate! I’m the master of my pain and the captain of my hate! No mercy! No pity! No fear! I’m the nightmare that is always standing near! Welcome to the concrete kingdom, son Where the war is never over and it’s never won! (Booyah!) (Verse 2) I look in the mirror and I see a beast Starving at the table of a beggar’s feast They judge the cover but they don’t read the page They don’t know about the demon inside of the cage I’m ticking like a bomb, I’m ready to blow I got a hundred different reasons why I run this show You play safe? I play for keeps I’m the wolf watching while the sheep sound asleep Check the resume, check the vital signs I’m redefining all the borderlines So go ahead and whisper, go ahead and doubt I’ll be the last one standing when the lights go out! (Chorus) Step back! I’m coming through the gate! I’m the master of my pain and the captain of my hate! No mercy! No pity! No fear! I’m the nightmare that is always standing near! Welcome to the concrete kingdom, son Where the war is never over and it’s never won! (Bridge) (Music drops out to just a kick drum heartbeat) Thump. Thump. Is that all you got? Thump. Thump. Give me your best shot. (Snare roll builds up rapidly) I said give me your best shot! RAAH! (Verse 3) (Fast flow, double-time) I’m a juggernaut, smashing through the barricade Sipping on the venom like it’s lemonade I don’t need a clique, I don’t need a crew I’m a one-man army coming after you So lock the doors and board up the windows I’m the hurricane blowing where the wind blows Hardcore to the bone, gritty to the core I’m the legend that you can’t ignore! (Outro) (Heavy breathing) Yeah. Concrete Kingdom. Don’t forget the name. (Sound of a match striking) Burn it down. (Fade out to sirens wailing)
