Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Woke up in the city where the dreams never sleep,
Hustle on my mind, gotta grind, gotta eat,
Concrete jungle, rose up from the streets,
Vision so clear, no time for defeat.
(808 kicks and bass guitar enter to establish the beat, bass boosted on the downbeat)
Money on my mind, but my soul stays whole,
Heart of a lion, story's been told,
Chasing my dreams, gotta break the mold,
Living life legendary, pure gold.
(Congas and Bongos add rhythmic foundation, bass guitar underlines melody, boost long bass on "gold")
Fast lane living, no brakes, full speed,
Every move I make, for my future’s need,
Real ones around, no space for greed,
Rise like a king, watch the world heed.
(Timbales and Clave accentuate rhythm, 808s punctuate each line, boost long bass on "heed")
(Hook)
I'm a king, I'm a boss, got the world in my hand,
Understand who I am, this is all part of the plan,
From the struggle to the top, yeah, I rose and I ran,
Never looking back, I'm the man with the grand.
(808s hit harder, with bass guitar riffs providing groove, boost long bass on "hand" and "grand")
(Drop)
(Music cuts out for a beat, then everything drops back in with a boosted long bass and 808s to create a powerful drop effect)
(Verse 2)
Double time grind, never losing my pace,
Every challenge I face, I embrace, no trace,
In the race for the crown, ain't no time to waste,
Leaving my mark, yeah, it's time to taste.
(808s and bass guitar maintain groove, boost long bass on "pace," "trace," and "taste")
Victory in sight, tunnel vision so tight,
Shining so bright, cutting through the night,
Built from the ground, now I'm taking flight,
Destined for greatness, reaching new heights.
(Boost long bass on "tight," "night," and "heights")
Legends in the making, got no time for delay,
Paving my way, every single day,
Hear what I say, there's no other way,
Winning every game, this is how I play.
(Guitar and Güiro create melodic and rhythmic background, bass guitar deepens the sound, boost long bass on "play")
(Bridge)
Heart of a warrior, eyes on the prize,
Every step calculated, watch me rise,
No disguise, just truth and drive,
Living my dream, feeling so alive.
(Maracas shake, 808s and bass guitar build intensity, boost long bass on "alive")
(Hook)
I'm a king, I'm a boss, got the world in my hand,
Understand who I am, this is all part of the plan,
From the struggle to the top, yeah, I rose and I ran,
Never looking back, I'm the man with the grand.
(808s hit hard, bass guitar provides groove, instruments come together for a powerful finish, boost long bass on "hand" and "grand")
(Long Bass Outro)
(Extend the bass line, letting it resonate and fade out gradually, creating a lingering impact to close the track)
