Concrete jungle, where legends are born
Hustlers and dreamers, from dusk till dawn
Streets whisper tales of those who rose
Against all odds, their legacy grows
From corner boys to kings of culture
Their stories inspire, nurture the future
Rags to riches, beats to empires
Street wisdom turned them into high-flyers
Jay-Z, Brooklyn's finest, Marcy Projects' son
Crack to rap, now a business tycoon
Nipsey Hussle, Crenshaw's proud soldier
Community leader, vision got bolder
Diddy, Harlem's bad boy turned mogul
From paper routes to champagne toasts
Dr. Dre, Compton's beat maestro
N.W.A. to Beats, a true impresario
From block to boardroom, they paved the way
Turning street smarts into empires, come what may
Inspiration for the youth, proof it's possible
From nothing to something, truly unstoppable
Legends of the streets, now icons worldwide
Rags to riches, they took that ride
From hustling corners to Fortune 500
Their stories echo, from ghetto to heaven
Started from the bottom, now they're here
Breaking barriers, conquering fear
Icons of culture, more than just rap
Changing the game, putting their hood on the map
Nas, Queensbridge poet, mic in hand
"Illmatic" dropped, hip-hop would never be the same
Meek Mill, Philly's voice for reform
Turned pain to purpose, weathered the storm
Cardi B, stripper to chart-topper
Bronx bombshell, industry show-stopper
Kendrick Lamar, Compton's conscious king
Good kid, m.A.A.d city, made us think
50 Cent, survived nine shots, rose stronger
Get rich or die tryin', hunger grew fonder
Eminem, trailer park to rap god
8 Mile to Hollywood, defying all odds
Lil Wayne, Hot Boy to best rapper alive
Cash Money to Young Money, watch him thrive
Drake, actor turned hip-hop's golden child
Started from the bottom, now he's running wild
Their rhymes tell stories of struggle and grace
Turning pain to profit, setting the pace
More than music, they're building legacies
Inspiring generations to chase their destinies
Legends of the streets, now icons worldwide
Rags to riches, they took that ride
From hustling corners to Fortune 500
Their stories echo, from ghetto to heaven
Started from the bottom, now they're here
Breaking barriers, conquering fear
Icons of culture, more than just rap
Changing the game, putting their hood on the map
From street corners to penthouse views
They rewrote the rules, paid their dues
Legends born from concrete dreams
Icons now, but still reppin' their teams
Their journey inspires us to reach higher
From local heroes to global empire builders
Remember where they came from, where they're at
Street legends to icons, that's a wrap
