Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Scrape of concrete, sunrise paints the sky
Cracked pavement symphony, another restless night
Hustle out the window, city's never asleep
Heartbeat like a bass drum, gotta rise to the street
(Pre-Chorus)
Same old brick and mortar, shadows stretchin' long
But there's a fire in my belly, singin' my own song
They can try and box me in, with deadlines and the rent
But I ain't built for cages, this ain't how the story's meant
(Chorus)
'Cause I'm a concrete jungle anthem, a rebel with a cause
Got a fire in my soul, ignitin' every pause
They can stack the odds against me, try and hold me down
This city's a battlefield, but my victory's coming 'round
(Verse 2)
Grind of the subway wheels, another faceless crowd
Headphones pumpin' rebellion, singin' voices loud
Faces lost in the rush, but I ain't lost in the fray
Got a purpose in my pockets, gotta make my own way
(Pre-Chorus)
Bossman's got a death grip, deadlines on my back
But I ain't built for breakin', ain't ever gonna crack
Just gotta break free, a melody out of tune
Maybe then they'd see me, singin' 'neath the afternoon
(Chorus) 'Cause I'm a concrete jungle anthem, a rebel with a cause Got a fire in my soul, ignitin' every pause They can stack the odds against me, try and hold me down This city's a battlefield, but my victory's coming 'round
(Bridge) These streets may bind me, but my spirit's taking flight Gonna leave this concrete jungle, bathed in freedom's light Gonna chase my dreams, even if they seem so far This is my war cry, a song I scream beneath the stars
(Chorus) 'Cause I'm a concrete jungle anthem, a rebel with a cause Got a fire in my soul, ignitin' every pause They can stack the odds against me, try and hold me down This city's a battlefield, but my victory's coming 'round
(Outro) Yeah, my victory's coming 'round, gonna break free from this town Concrete jungle anthem, gonna turn this whole world upside down
(Outro) Yeah, my victory's coming 'round, gonna break free from this town Concrete jungle anthem, gonna turn this whole world upside down
