Hard rise
by Taz Mc
Lyrics
[Intro - ominous vocal sample echoing "streets callin', no turnin' back", deep 808 bass rumble, sparse electric hi-hats ticking slow]
[Verse 1 - low-pitched auto-tuned flow, gritty ad-libs, trap hi-hats skittering over booming 808s, dark synth clouds drifting in background]
Fresh out foster, 12 years caged, now Hamilton streets my stage
Solo dolo, no net, rent due, tryna eat, no plate
School bells ring, books heavy, but blocks pull harder, gang flags wave
After-school grind, flip burgers for crumbs, pockets empty, heart crave
[Pre-Chorus - tension build with rising synth stabs, layered echoes on vocals, sidechained kicks pulsing ominous]
Balance slippin', weights crashin', homies schemin', opps watchin'
Job shift ends, crew hits, straps tucked, choices mockin'
Dark alleys whisper, "join or starve," foster scars itch deep
On my own, no sleep, demons creep, grind never cease
[Chorus - massive trap drop, distorted gangster bark vocals, thunderous 808 slides, electric drums snapping hard, cloud rap melody haunting with reverb]
Streets of Hamilton, gang life callin', solo soldier, no fallin'
School, job, friends, all slippin', dark path, I'm all in
Foster ghost, now kingpin dreams, balance breakin', blood on seams
Hard life, trap nights, own my throne, no light, just fight!
(Ad-libs: Yeah, dark, Hamilton trap, gang forever!)
[Verse 2 - faster trap flow, pitched-down sample loops "alone in the cold", heavy 808 rolls, electric snares cracking vicious, ominous bass growls]
Friends fade when heat rise, job boss trippin', cut check late
Gang OGs test loyalty, initiations in the cut, fate sealed tight
Textbooks dusty, homework ghosted, survival mode activated
First crib solo, walls echo empty, but streets family, initiated
[Bridge - stripped ominous breakdown, vocal chops stuttering "balance... break...", minimal hi-hats, deep sub-bass throb, building tension with siren synths]
12 years bounced, now rooted in concrete, roots twist dark
Trying hold it all, but gravity pull, one slip, spark
No mom, no pops, just mirror stare, gangster glare
Hamilton nights, own my war, scars my crown, beware
[Outro Chorus - fading drop intensity, echoing gangster shouts, 808s decaying slow, cloud melody dissolving into reverb fog, final vocal sample "dark forever"]
Streets of Hamilton, gang life callin', solo soldier, no fallin'
School, job, friends, all slippin', dark path, I'm all in
Foster ghost, kingpin dreams, balance gone, own the scene
Hard life, trap eternal, Hamilton king, dark supreme... (fades with ad-libs: Yeah, dark, no light...)
