Lyrics
Description
(Verse 1)
Sunset bled on the gravel lot, where we used to dream out loud,
Me, Lil' Ray, and Trey - three shadows against the crowd.
Twelve years old, scraped-knee promises beneath that busted streetlight's hum,
Said we'd rise above the concrete, yeah, before our time was done.
Ray had jokes could crack the tension, Trey had plans, meticulous and tight,
Me? Just tryna hold the rhythm, keep the darkness outta sight.
Mama worked two shifts, came home weary, eyes held oceans deep,
Said, "Baby, men feel heavy, but the strongest souls don't weep."
So I swallowed every tremor, every fear the night would bring,
Locked it down behind a nod, learned silence was the thing.
(Chorus)
**Yeah, Boyz don't cry, that's the code we understood,
Traded tears for hollow points in the old neighborhood.
Pain's a language spoken low, in a clinched jaw, a tilted head,
Whispers in the vacant lots where better words lay dead.
Boyz don't cry, gotta carry that load alone,
Even when the foundation shakes, turn your heart to stone.
Buildin' walls with calloused hands, hidin' scars beneath the sleeve,
Yeah, Boyz don't cry... but Lord, do we bleed.
We bleed.**
(Verse 2)
Years rolled by like stolen Chevys, fast and reckless, leavin' dust,
Saw Trey trade his books for corners, caught up in the dollar rush.
Saw the light fade from his vision, replaced by somethin' cold and hard,
The street's a hungry teacher, leaves you battle-scarred.
Then came that night, the sirens wailin', painted alleys red and blue,
Found Trey slumped against the brickwork, nothin' left for me to do.
His mama's scream tore through the silence, a sound that haunts me even now,
Felt the dam inside me tremble, sweat beadin' on my brow.
But I stood there, statue-still, Ray's hand grip tight on my arm,
Chokin' back the hurricane, tryna shield her from the harm.
Said, "Be strong for Ms. Elaine," my voice a stranger in my throat,
While the grief, a ragin' river, threatened to sink the boat.
(Chorus)
**Yeah, Boyz don't cry, that's the lie we gotta sell,
Standin' tall beside the casket, ringin' that death knell.
Wear the suit, grip the shoulder, offer words worn thin and weak,
While the sorrow drowns your spirit, can't afford to look too weak.
Boyz don't cry, gotta be the pillar, hold the line,
Swallow down the saltwater, pretend that you're just fine.
Mask the cracks with hardened glances, bury feelin's six feet deep,
Yeah, Boyz don't cry... but Lord, the price is steep.
It's steep.**
(Verse 3)
Now Ray's locked down, twenty winters,...
