Oscar Auliq-Ice - Hustle's Prayer lyrics

Wake up in the morning
Streets calling my name, every step I take
Every move’s part of the game
Grew up in the hood, where
The struggle's real tight, every single day
Trying to fight the good fight

Enemies lurking, every corner I turn
But, I've got a flame inside, watch it burn
Money, power, respect, gotta earn
Your way up
Trust no one, keep your circle tight
No hiccup

Lost in these streets, my
Burdens heavy to wear
Send a sign from above
Let me know someone's there
As I lay down tonight
Hustler's dream on repeat
Pray the streets keep my soul
'til the Lord I shall meet

Bricks on the block, every deal is a risk
Life's about more than gold chains
And a wrist flick
Seen my homies go down, fall
Victim to the snare
Street code in my veins
Gotta move with due care

Loyalty's the key, in a world so cold
Got my crew by my side
Watching stories unfold
Lessons learned from the past
Mistakes, no redo
Eyes on the prize, success in my view

Lost in these streets, my
Burdens heavy to wear
Send a sign from above
Let me know someone's there
As I lay down tonight
Hustler's dream on repeat
Pray the streets keep my soul
'til the Lord I shall meet

All the pain, all the strife
Makes us who we are
From nothing to something, hustling hard
Reaching far
Gangsta tales, life's sales, every
Scar tells a story
In the end, it’s all for the glory

From concrete jungles, rise kings and queens
Where every move you make
Determines your means
Living for today, tomorrow's never promised
In the face of adversity
Gotta stay the most honest

Lace up my shoes, hit
The streets with ambition
Every decision, a calculated mission
Through thick and thin, we rise and we fall
In the world of the hustle
Gotta give it your all

Lost in these streets, my
Burdens heavy to wear
Send a sign from above
Let me know someone's there
As I lay down tonight
Hustler's dream on repeat
Pray the streets keep my soul
'til the Lord I shall meet

So, to the ones still in
The grind, stay true
Remember the roots, where you came from
Your crew and as night takes the day
With hope we compete
For another dawn, another hustle
Life's bittersweet
