[Intro]
**
Yeah…
Ain’t nobody coming when the sirens scream.
Cold world.
Keep your eyes open.
**
[Hook]
**
Life is in danger, I can feel that shit,
Dark clouds overhead, better deal with it.
Everybody got a blade, everybody got a plan,
One wrong move, now you’re staring at the end.
Life is in danger, ain't no warning sign,
Gotta watch your back every motherfucking night.
If I fall, let the whole damn city know—
I was born in the fire, I ain't dying slow.
**
[Verse 1]
**
I came from the bottom where the pavement cracks,
Where a handshake ain't shit if the money ain't stacked.
Niggas talk tough till the pressure gets real,
Then they scatter like roaches when the heat gets revealed.
I got demons in my head and a storm in my chest,
Tryna outrun death while I'm chasing success.
Every corner got a memory, every block got a scar,
Every night feels different when you know where you are.
Fuck a fake friend, I can see through the grin,
They'll celebrate your funeral, then swear they was kin.
So I move with suspicion, keep my circle on lock,
Heart beating like a bass drum when I hear that knock.
Ain't no savior coming, better save your own soul,
World getting colder while the young get old.
I ain't praying for a crown, I'm surviving the war,
'Cause the minute that you breathe, they be asking for more.

[Verse 2]
**
Sirens in the distance, but the night's still young,
Got a thousand things to say but I'm biting my tongue.
'Cause loose lips turn a small problem into a grave,
And pride got more motherfuckers buried than bravery saved.
I seen brothers turn enemies over pennies and pride,
Seen a mother lose sleep while her son ran outside.
That's the shit that sticks with you, deep in your brain,
You can leave the fucking hood but the hood leave a stain.
So I grind through the pain, put the rage in the booth,
Turn the fear into fuel, turn the scars into truth.
If the world wants war, I'ma answer with words,
Every syllable heavy like a thousand damn birds.
No halo on me, I ain't claiming I'm clean,
I done walked through some places that would poison your dreams.
But I'm still here breathing, so I'm making it count,
When they push me to the edge, I'ma climb my way out.
**
[Outro]
**
Life is in danger…
But I'm still alive.
Still breathing.
Still fighting.
And that's enough to make the whole world nervous.
