Chi-Raids - Lost in the Echo Lyrics

Yeah, I'm lost in the echo, hear the voices callin'
In the heart of the struggle, man, I keep ballin'
Chicago nights, shadows creep on the block
With dreams in my pocket and a heart made of rock
Grew up in the chaos, where the sirens wail
Every day a battle, but I never bail
Echoes of my past, got me trapped in a loop
But I'm breakin' these chains, gotta rise from the troop
Hustlin' hard, man, this life ain't a game
Lost in the echo, but I'm chasin' the fame
See the faces change, but the pain stays the same
In the streets of the Chi, we all carry the blame

Look, I'm spittin' these bars like a soldier in war
Every word a bullet, every line a score
Politicians lie while the streets fall apart
But I'm holdin' the truth like a blade to the heart
In the dark, I see the shadows of my friends
Lost in the echo, where the silence descends
We were kings in the making, but the thrones turned to dust
Now we fight for survival, in the streets we trust
The struggle's real, man, can't you feel the weight
Life's a high stakes game, and we deal with fate
But I'm risin' from the ashes, can't extinguish my spark
In the echoes of the night, I'll be leavin' my mark

See, the streets are a canvas, painted with pain
Every corner I turn, I feel the strain
Lost in the echo, where the lost souls roam
In the heart of the city, I'm fightin' for home
They try to shut us down, but we scream in the dark
With the fire in our hearts, yeah, we're leavin' a mark
Echoes of the fallen, whisper in my ear
But I'm drownin' out the doubt, lettin' go of the fear
I'm a gangster with dreams, never backin' down
In the land of the brave, I wear my crown
Chasin' every shadow, searchin' for the light
In the echoes of the night, we're ready to fight

So I walk through the valley of shadows and lies
With my head held high, I'm reachin' for the skies
Lost in the echo, but I'm findin' my way
In this game of survival, I'm here to stay
Got my brothers with me, loyalty's the code
In the streets of Chicago, we carry the load
Every echo a lesson, every silence a chance
To rise from the ashes, to take a new stance
No fear in my heart, just a fire that burns
Lost in the echo, but the world still turns
We'll rise like the phoenix, outta the flames
In the game of life, we'll rewrite the names

So when you hear the echoes, know we're still here
In the heart of the struggle, we conquer our fear
Lost in the echo, but we're findin' our way
In the shadows of the night, we're ready to play
This life's a battle, but we're takin' the throne
With hustle and heart, we'll never be alone
Lost in the echo, but we're chasin' the light
In the darkness of the city, we'll continue the fight
