Ghosts on the Block
Intro
Yeah… yeah…
Streets never forget… nah
Ghosts still walkin’, feel me?
Verse 1
Concrete jungle, corners cold as ice
Homies fell young, paid the ultimate price
Names on walls, candles flicker at night
Every shadow moves, I swear I see their fight
Echoes of sirens, whispers in the alley
Lessons learned hard, life ain’t a finale
Tattoos tell stories, scars write the plot
Every step I take, ghosts on the block
Chorus
Ghosts on the block, can’t shake the past
Fallen soldiers watchin’, man, their shadows cast
Every corner got a story, every street got pain
Hear their voices in the wind, calling out my name
Ghosts on the block, yeah, they never gone
Keepin’ me sharp, keepin’ me strong
Verse 2
Late nights, hood eyes peepin’ through the mist
Never trust a soul if the wrist ain’t kissed
Hood legends gone, but they taught the code
Pay respect or get lost on this heavy road
Strapped for survival, heart cold like steel
Life’s a gamble, every move gotta feel
They whisper, “Stay true,” while I dodge the cops
I walk these streets with ghosts on the block
Chorus
Ghosts on the block, can’t shake the past
Fallen soldiers watchin’, man, their shadows cast
Every corner got a story, every street got pain
Hear their voices in the wind, calling out my name
Ghosts on the block, yeah, they never gone
Keepin’ me sharp, keepin’ me strong
Bridge
Eyes in the dark, I feel them near
Every step a memory, every breath a tear
They built this turf, paid in blood and sweat
I carry their lessons, never forget
Verse 3
Hood prayers rise while the city sleeps
Their presence lingers where the darkness creeps
I spit truth heavy, like bricks in the rain
Honoring my fallen while I chase the gain
No fear, no shame, just respect in my stride
They ride with me, always by my side
Life moves fast, but the block talks
I’m living proof, ghosts on the block
Chorus
Ghosts on the block, can’t shake the past
Fallen soldiers watchin’, man, their shadows cast
Every corner got a story, every street got pain
Hear their voices in the wind, calling out my name
Ghosts on the block, yeah, they never gone
Keepin’ me sharp, keepin’ me strong
Outro
Yeah…
Light a candle for the lost…
We keep grindin’ in the streets they built…
Ghosts on the block… forever watchin’…
