(Verse 1)
Yo, I’m ridin’ through the block, feelin’ like a king,
Memories floodin’ back, man, the joy that they bring,
Skippin’ rocks on the river, we was young, we was wild,
Thuggin’ in the back alleys, the world was our child.
From the struggle to the hustle, man, we never did slide,
Got my heart on my sleeve, but my pride’s like a tide,
Nostalgia hittin’ hard, like the bass in my trunk,
Remember days on the grind, never givin’ a funk.
(Chorus)
Heroes never die, we just rise from the flames,
Ballin’ through the storm, never playin’ no games,
Confidence we flaunt, like our name in the sky,
When the streets whisper truth, I just reply -
(Verse 2)
Bitches on the corner, try to flex all that cash,
But I’m chasin’ real dreams, I ain’t runnin’ from the past,
Got my squad by my side, every blokes a savage,
We ain't just survivors, we the ones who’ll have the advantage.
I remember all the nights, when we schemed for a bite,
Crackin’ codes in the dark, under streetlamp light,
But now I’m stackin’ paper, livin’ life on the grind,
Boys to men, never bend, we just redefine.
(Chorus)
Heroes never die, we just rise from the flames,
Ballin’ through the storm, never playin’ no games,
Confidence we flaunt, like our name in the sky,
When the streets whisper truth, I just reply -
(Bridge)
We legends in the making, got that fire in our soul,
Flexin’ like it’s magic, man, I’m feelin’ so whole,
Ain’t no stoppin’ my shine, ’cause I came from the dirt,
Now I’m takin’ my throne, watch me put in that work.
(Verse 3)
So here’s to the memories, the nights we survived,
The laughter and the cries, true heroes, we thrive,
With my heart in the hustle, and my mind on the prize,
I’m the voice of the street, where the real never lies.
So pour a drink for the fallen, light one for the pain,
We got scars on our hearts, but we’ll never be tamed,
From the projects to the palace, this life is a ride,
I’m a warrior at heart, and I’ll never divide.
(Chorus)
Heroes never die, we just rise from the flames,
Ballin’ through the storm, never playin’ no games,
Confidence we flaunt, like our name in the sky,
When the streets whisper truth, I just reply -
(Outro)
So remember my name, when the stories are told,
I’m the voice of the lost, and my heart’s made of gold,
Through the struggle and the strife, man, I’ll always defy,
In this world we created, yeah, heroes never die.
[Outro]
