[Verse] Clock ticks slow, I lace my kicks, the night’s alive with tension, Eyes on the shadows, mind steady, I pray for my protection. Blocks whisper stories, bullets fly, but I’m here to break the chain, Heart beat steady, feet ready, gotta rise above the pain. [Pre-Chorus] Every step I’m taking, every move I’m making, Feels like a test, but I’m built for the grind. With a flicker of faith, I’m spitting my truth, In the darkest corners, I’mma find my light. [Chorus] Lord, keep me safe when the streets get cold, Armor my soul, let the story be told. When the night falls hard, and the skies turn gray, I’m standing tall, I won’t fade away. Lord, keep me safe when the streets get cold, Armor my soul, let the story be told. When the night falls hard, and the skies turn gray, I’m standing tall, I won’t fade away. [Verse] Sirens scream but I’m calm, breathing deep through the chaos, Walking tightrope thin, dodging shots that come across. Dreams heavy in my pocket, hope burning like a flame, Every step’s a prayer, every word calls your name. [Pre-Chorus] Every step I’m taking, every move I’m making, Feels like a test, but I’m built for the grind. With a flicker of faith, I’m spitting my truth, In the darkest corners, I’mma find my light. [Chorus] Lord, keep me safe when the streets get cold, Armor my soul, let the story be told. When the night falls hard, and the skies turn gray, I’m standing tall, I won’t fade away. Lord, keep me safe when the streets get cold, Armor my soul, let the story be told. When the night falls hard, and the skies turn gray, I’m standing tall, I won’t fade away. [Bridge] In the steel and concrete jungle’s roar, I keep my spirit strong, ready for more. Faith’s the shield, it’s my ground, my guide, Walking through the fire with hope inside. [Chorus] Lord, keep me safe when the streets get cold, Armor my soul, let the story be told. When the night falls hard, and the skies turn gray, I’m standing tall, I won’t fade away. Lord, keep me safe when the streets get cold, Armor my soul, let the story be told. When the night falls hard, and the skies turn gray, I’m standing tall, I won’t fade away. [Outro] Step outside, eyes wide, heart tight, One more prayer before I face the night. I’m built to rise, not built to fall, In this block’s maze, I’m standing tall.
