We Run the Block

Intro

Ayy, skrrt (skrrt-skrrt), yeah

We move like thunder, move like thunder (move, move), ayy

Verse

I came up with my palms bloody, pockets heavy, mind steady, uh (yuh)

Numbers on the wall, I read 'em like a sermon, keep it ready, ayy

Bought the silence with a grin, traded time for territory (ha)

My crew got a code, no parole, just inventory (let's go)

Finger on the ledger, ink won't wash, it's permanent (permanent)

They chant my name in corners where the cold air feels emergent (brr)

I flip the script, cut the clip, make the margin multiply (multiply)

Watch the green like a meteor, fall clean across the sky (yeah)

Never ask for mercy, only plan the method, chase the ledger

Keep a circle tight as a vault — trust is measured, not a measure (uh-huh)

Smoke in the coupe, ideas heavy like a crown (king)

We don't beg for positions, we take roads and mark 'em down (take 'em)

Enemies get smaller when the movement gets more clever (ha)

Gloves off in the winter, blood on the contract, never sever (no)

I keep my brothers close — they breathe the same ambition (they breathe)

We count the cost in lessons, not in broken superstition (count it)

I learned to walk with wolves and still keep the rhythm human (human)

Taught my pain to write receipts, the paper's always proving (proof)

Chorus

We run the block, we run the block, we run the block, we run the block (run it)

We run the block, we run the block, we run the block, we run the block (run it)

(ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy)

Verse

Check the calendar, every minute's currency, no credit zones (no credit)

Smiles hide the razor lines — I read intentions like a sentence thrown (read it)

Got a ledger of old debts and new vows, all inked in wrist tight (wrist tight)

When the street sings lullabies, we hum the chorus, keep it right (keep it right)

I move like I'm indebted to the block and also to my name (yeah)

No halo, no facade — I'm just a player in the game (just a player)

My past put clamps on my shoulders, now I lift with iron nerve (lift)

We take corners with a nod, not a flash — conserve the nerve (conserve)

Opposition learn the lesson slow, written in their silence (shh)

I built an empire out of scraps, call it conflict with compliance (built it)

The night don't give directions, we carve maps with our decisions (carve)

I stack the wins like funeral roses — cold and precise incision (cut it)

Never miss the angle — angles taught me how to pivot (pivot)

When they look for easy money, we supply the harder digits (supply)

You want respect? Then earn the hours, sweat is tissue paper (earn it)

We dress success in old scars, parade it like a victory flag (wave it)

I keep the paper dry, no tears — just contracts, just command (command)

We move in silence when it's time, then roar when it's demanded (roar)

We don't fold for fortune, fortune folds for the demanded plan (nah)

Chorus

We run
