[Intro]
This city’s fucked, man
It’s a goddamn graveyard
Where the fuck did it all go wrong?
The streets used to scream, now they whisper
Concrete don’t lie
But it sure as fuck remembers
[Verse 1]
Concrete jungle’s dead, veins turned to rust
Shattered glass on the pavement, dreams turn to dust
Streetlights flicker like they’re givin' up hope
This city’s a bitch, and I’m barely afloat
Fuck the skyline, now it’s crooked and torn
Like promises made that were never reborn
I’m walkin’ through ruins, this shit’s a grave
But I’m laughin’ at the echoes screamin’ “who’s gonna save?”
Fuck your gods, your prayers, your fake-ass truths
They sold the dream cheap, now we payin’ for proof
I’m the voice in the wreckage, spit venom and rage
This city’s dead quiet, but I’m still on the stage
[Chorus]
Echoes in the concrete, the silence shouts loud
Lost in the ruins, no faces, no crowd
Skies turned gray, but my soul stays proud
I walk through the echoes, ain’t bowin’ down now
[Verse 2]
Fucked-up payphones, nobody callin’ back
Spray-paint prophets screamin’ “fuck the system” in black
Rats rule the kingdom, roaches hold the crown
These streets ain’t breathin’ but they ain’t backin’ down
Rust drips like blood where steel beams broke
I inhale the ash while the city still chokes
And they wonder why we’re pissed, man, look at this shit
Dead malls, burned walls, now we’re born misfits
They built this empire on lies and greed
Now the cracks run deep where the truth used to bleed
I’m screamin’ in the silence, till I tear this apart
If the city’s a grave, I’m the ghost with a heart
[Chorus]
Echoes in the concrete, the silence shouts loud
Lost in the ruins, no faces, no crowd
Skies turned gray, but my soul stays proud
I walk through the echoes, ain’t bowin’ down now
[Bridge]
These streets bled dreams, now they’re just bones and scars
But fuck it, scars are where the truth gets born
They say this place is dead? Nah
It’s just quiet, waitin’ for a voice to tear it apart
[Final Chorus]
Echoes in the concrete, the silence shouts loud
Lost in the ruins, no faces, no crowd
Skies turned gray, but my soul stays proud
I walk through the echoes, ain’t bowin’ down now
Fuck this place
Still here, motherfucker
Echoes in the concrete, the silence shouts loud
Lost in the ruins, no faces, no crowd
Skies turned gray, but my soul stays proud
I walk through the echoes, ain’t bowin’ down now
[Outro]
Yeah
The city’s fucked
But I’m still here
