Block Heat

Yeah, heard them talking but they never walked it Keep the circle

tight, locked in

Corner store static where the mercury leaks We got the blueprints written

directly on these streets

Cold concrete beneath the worn-out soles Watching every single shadow playing their

roles (watch 'em) No hand-outs,

only what we went and took Every single chapter written straight out

the book

This is for the block,

for the real ones left Every single step like a life and

death Yeah we stand tall when the winter gets cold This is

pure truth

that was never sold (never sold)

We see the system trying to lock up the gate But we

just build a ladder and negotiate with fate From the pavement up,

never looking back down Heavy is the head that's inheriting the crown

(heavy,

yeah) Keep your eyes wide open,

never sleep on the climb Paying all our dues,

just a matter of time

This is for the block,

for the real ones left Every single step like a life and

death Yeah we stand tall when the winter gets cold This is

pure truth

that was never sold (never sold)

Yeah, block by block

We don't stop (never)

Just the crackle of the wax
