Makata In Sweden - Urban Narratives Lyrics

In the shadows where we creep, dark night streets we weave
Echoes of a struggle in the hustle we believe Glimmers of hope through smoky haze
The city's pulse hits a maze In this underground we rise, survive
Living life through the blaze

Yo, in the back alleys where the lost souls play
Concrete jungles where the wolves don't stray
Hustling hard, stacking ships like it's poker
Every corner got a story, every fable's a joker

From the block in Manila to the streets of Stockholm
We spit wisdom and chaos like a poet with no home
Life's a test, we grind till the sun take a dip
In the land of the cold, we still let the fire drip

Street dreams collide where the heartbeats race
Every line I drop, paint the truth on my face
Life's a battle, but I'm armed with rhyme
These streets taught me patience, I climbed and I shined

In the shadows where we creep, dark night streets we weave
Echoes of a struggle in the hustle we believe
Glimmers of hope through smoky haze
The city's pulse hits a maze

In this underground we rise, survive
Living life through the blaze
Step to the beat of a heart that's wild
Lost in the rhythm, but I'm still that child

Thug life taught me trick, taught me grind and flow
With my crew by my side, we ride never slow
Hustle like a boss while they cling to the fame
We play the game raw, forget about the names

Flippin' the script like a dime, hit the switch
Life's a flick and the struggle's the pitch
Rolling deep in the shadows, we decipher the code
Every setback's a setup to explode

Filipino pride down in my bones
Underneath the surface, hear my struggle in tones
With every syllable, we break the cages
Talking bout life lost in the shadows

Where we creep, dark night streets we weave
Echoes of the struggle in the hustle we believe
Glimmers of hope through smoky haze
The city's pulse hits a maze

In this underground we rise, survive
Living life through the blaze
Echoes of pain paint the canvas of the night
Surviving here, man takes that real fight

Grit and glide, we navigate these schemes
Lost in translation, still living our dreams
From the jeeps and the zigs to the dream
In Odinplan we make noise

Underground soldiers of the fam
Beneath the surface, our stories collide
We're legends in the making, can't nobody divide
Though the darkness, listen, it won't steal our light

We rise up each day, ready for the fight
A twist, a turn, but we're locked in the fusion
Hip-hop in our veins, it's a street revolution
We throw our fists high, ignite the sky

Rapping bout the struggle till the day we die
In the shadows where we creep, dark night streets we weave
Echoes of the struggle in the hustle we believe
Glimmers of hope through smoky haze

The city's close, it's a maze
In this underground we rise, survive
Living life through the blaze
