Hook - Repeat) đ World so cold, got me fightinâ to breathe, Tryna find light, but itâs lost in the breeze, They tell me to pray, but the prayers donât speak, So I grind till my soul set free. (Verse 2) Yeah, I learned to maneuver where vultures be lurkinâ, Hand-me-down dreams, but I stitched âem up perfect, Everybody talkinâ âbout love, but they hurtinâ, Turninâ they brothers to ghosts for a purchase. I seen âem kneelinâ in churches on Sunday, By Monday, they load up the clips, let the drum play, Told lilâ homie, âThe world donât love you,â If God got a plan, then tell me why hunger still touch you? (Chorus - Repeat) Tell me who gonâ ride when the lights get low? Tell me who gonâ stand when the storm gonâ blow? Ainât no love in the streets, gotta get it and go, âCause the world donât wait for a soul. I been walkinâ through the fire, still standinâ, Seen the real ones fade, seen the fake ones dancinâ, Ainât no handouts, gotta take my chances, I was built for this life, no crashinâ. (Verse 3) I had to carry my sins in a duffle, They tried to fit me in boxes, but I break out the puzzle, Ainât no love in the jungle, just muscle, Gotta hustle, they taxinâ the poor while the rich blow a bundle. Grandma told me, "Boy, you gifted, donât you ever sell your soul," But I seen people trade they morals just to never sleep alone, Seen âem kill a man for sneakers, seen a junkie sell his home, So donât ask me why my lyrics got that anger in the tone. (Verse 4) Who gonâ save us? Ainât no capes, just cases, Ainât no luck, just fate, no safe locations, I was raised where the sun donât shine on pavements, Only heat come from choppers, only rain from basements. Taught to take what we lack, move smart, think fast, They donât give us nothinâ back, so we learned to extract, If my options either starve or put this work in a sack, Then you tell me whatâs the difference when you livinâ like that? (Hook - Repeat) đ World so cold, got me fightinâ to breathe, Tryna find light, but itâs lost in the breeze, They tell me to pray, but the prayers donât speak, So I grind till my soul set free. (Verse 5) They took a real one last summer, Mama cried âtil the walls turned numb, just another, Ainât no answers in them prayers, just more pain to suffer, Tell me why the good die, but the wicked still hover? I need peace, but this world ainât designed for a mind like mine, They want my people asleep, they want my culture confined, But I move like a rebel, every bar like a shrine, If they kill me for my truth, let my words stay alive. (Verse 6) Yeah, I walk through the valley with a blade in my hand, Canât trust nothinâ when the Judas be the same as your fam, I seen love turn to hate, I seen prayers turn to scams, And I learned real quick, ain't no saviors in man. So I take what I can, flip that, build more, Break them chains, let my name be the echo of war, If I fall, let âem know I was fightinâ for more, Ain't no peace when the world keep ignitinâ the storm. (Final Chorus - Outro) Tell me who gonâ ride when the lights get low? Tell me who gonâ stand when the storm gonâ blow? Ainât no love in the streets, gotta get it and go, âCause the world donât wait for a soul.
