Instrumental Intro
(Verse 1)
Yo, I’m the whisper in the alleys, where the shadows play,
Teaching young bloods how to grind, in the LA sway.
Streets got a rhythm, gotta move with the beat,
Count the green, know the scheme, man, don’t face defeat.
From the corner to the block, watch ’em hustle and flow,
Every lesson got a price, you reap what you sow.
Grimy hands, dirty money, but we play it wise,
In the city of angels, you better improvise.
Hook:
No discounts on the grind, that’s the life that we lead,
Learn the hustle from the real, plant the fam in the seed.
Gonna rise, no surprise, if you play it like me,
In this world, take the chance, just believe and you’ll see.
(Verse 2)
Got the heart of a lion, living fierce in my pride,
Show the kids how to survive, got that hood as my guide.
Flip the script, don’t slip, stay tight, keep it true,
Act smart, play your part, every move is a cue.
Got the game on lock, from the turf to the grind,
Teach ’em respect, man, you’re more than just a dime.
Cash rules, but it’s learning first, got that on my chest,
Celebrate every win, know the struggle’s a test.
Hook:
No discounts on the grind, that’s the life that we lead,
Learn the hustle from the real, plant the fam in the seed.
Gonna rise, no surprise, if you play it like me,
In this world, take the chance, just believe and you’ll see.
(Verse 3)
Ain’t about the fame, it’s the hustle that’s the game,
Every corner, every block, remember my name.
Leave a legacy, teach ‘em all how to eat,
Gotta pave the way, can’t accept defeat.
Strong bonds with my tribe, loyalty a must,
If you want it, go and get it, in the hood, we trust.
Keep the dreams alive, let ‘em know who’s the boss,
In this concrete jungle, there’s no pain, no loss.
Hook:
No discounts on the grind, that’s the life that we lead,
Learn the hustle from the real, plant the fam in the seed.
Gonna rise, no surprise, if you play it like me,
In this world, take the chance, just believe and you’ll see.
Outro:
So remember little hustler, when the sunset glows,
Life's a hustle, ain't no mercy for your woes.
Keep your head up high, and your pockets low,
In the city of dreams, you gotta steal the show.
