(Hook)
Under flickering streetlamps, Gemma's silhouette stands still,
Concrete jungles whisper secrets, cold nights test her will.
Loyalty's a shattered glass, betrayal's venom spills,
But her heart's forged in shadows, unbreakable, made of steel.
(Verse 1)
Cracked sidewalks tell stories, of nights drenched in rain,
Gemma’s footsteps echo past the corner store’s last flame.
Mama’s voice a ghostly hymn, "Keep your soul, survive the pain,"
But snakes slither in the gutters, playing ruthless, playing vain.
She’s seen the crack pipe’s glow, neon signs flicker like doubt,
Seen blood paint alley walls where friends turned foes out.
Midnight confessions under dim porch lights shout,
Her diary’s pages soaked in silence, no room for doubt.
Broken promises hang like laundry on rusted wire,
She counts scars like trophies, each one fuels her fire.
In the mirror, a warrior, forged amid the mire,
Every heartbeat a drum, every breath a choir.
(Hook)
Under flickering streetlamps, Gemma's silhouette stands still,
Concrete jungles whisper secrets, cold nights test her will.
Loyalty's a shattered glass, betrayal's venom spills,
But her heart's forged in shadows, unbreakable, made of steel.
(Verse 2)
Trap bass rattles bones, 808s deep like heartbeats lost,
Piano keys drip eerie notes, like frost on a grave embossed.
Gemma’s tongue slices sharp, words like blades tossed,
No filter, raw truth, no lines crossed.
Corner stoops and faded tattoos tell tales of the climb,
Blood brothers turning cold, partners crossing the line.
She’s the queen of the fallen, survivor’s sign,
Rising from ashes, rewriting the grime.
Ink stains on her palms, from verses spilled in pain,
Every rhyme a bullet, every chorus a rain.
She walks the thin line between loss and gain,
In the game of survival, she breaks every chain.
(Hook)
Under flickering streetlamps, Gemma's silhouette stands still,
Concrete jungles whisper secrets, cold nights test her will.
Loyalty's a shattered glass, betrayal's venom spills,
But her heart's forged in shadows, unbreakable, made of steel.
(Bridge)
No scripts, no rules, just raw confession,
Gemma’s voice slices through dark oppression.
Eerie keys weaving tension, heavy 808’s aggression,
A symphony of grit, unfiltered obsession.
In the dead of night, her spirit ignites,
From broken dreams to the fiercest fights.
Shadowed alleys hold her rights,
Her story bleeds on these city lights.
(Outro)
So when the echoes haunt the streets you roam,
Know Gemma’s fight carved from stone.
Loyalty cut, but she stands alone,
Queen of shadows, forever throne.
