Street Survival Prayer Lyrics

Street Survival Prayer Lyrics by OSCAR AULIQ-ICE

From the corners of the hood, where dreams often shatter

Life's a constant battle, dodging snakes and all the chatter

Been hustling since young, living life in the fast lane

Every sunset I've seen, hides tears and unseen pain

Lost in this urban maze, with enemies that lurk and stare

Before I close my eyes tonight, here's my street survival prayer

As I roll down this concrete sleep, hope the streets my soul they keep

If a bullet finds me 'fore the break, pray the hood my spirit takes

Chain hang low, gold shining like a beacon

In a world so cold, trust's something I ain’t seeking

Every step is like a chess move, gotta be precise

Betrayal's a given, loyalty's got its price

Enemies got eyes, watching every single move

But I’ve got my crew, with something to prove

Money, power, respect - it’s the code of the street

Every time we roll deep, our foes feel the heat

Lost in this urban maze, with enemies that lurk and stare

Before I close my eyes tonight, here's my street survival prayer

As I roll down this concrete sleep, hope the streets my soul they keep

If a bullet finds me 'fore the break, pray the hood my spirit takes

Sirens in the distance, blue and red lights flash

Hustling ain't a choice, when you’re out here for the cash

But amidst this chaos, I got dreams of getting out

Yet the hood's like quicksand, always pulling, filled with doubt

Stories told of legends, who made it to the top

But for every success, many more bodies drop

So I count my blessings, with every dollar I earn

In this world of lessons, where tables always turn

Lost in this urban maze, with enemies that lurk and stare

Before I close my eyes tonight, here's my street survival prayer

As I roll down this concrete sleep, hope the streets my soul they keep

If a bullet finds me 'fore the break, pray the hood my spirit takes

So to the young ones, dreaming under these city lights

Know the streets are ruthless, with endless fights

Hold on to that vision, but never let your guard down

Cause in this urban jungle, only the strong wear the crown
