One Crew, One Code

Songtekst

[Intro] Whole block knows when the gate rolls shut Count to four, then the whole crew up [Verse 1] Corner store clerk knows the names on the tab Cold fries, cracked screen, old coat on my back You talk like a king, but you borrow your crown We came up on work, kept our heads from the ground No borrowed shine, no parade for the press Just a tight-knit circle and a promise kept fresh If you step to the line, better stand where you stand Every word carries weight when it comes from the fam [Chorus] One crew, one code, ten toes on the pavement Say it with your chest, let the whole block say it No bluff, no break, we don't fold under pressure One crew, one code, all together, all together [Verse 2] Old heads taught patience, not a pose for the camera Make a plan, check twice, keep your people out the damage Little cousin wants fast, I said slow down, listen A quick road can turn to a long night missing We want keys, clean books, front doors that are ours Full tables on Sunday, kids safe after hours So I speak for the ones who were counted out early Every scar tells a story; every win came dearly [Chorus] One crew, one code, ten toes on the pavement Say it with your chest, let the whole block say it No bluff, no break, we don't fold under pressure One crew, one code, all together, all together [Bridge] Hands up for the ones who kept their word For the ones who stayed when the whole world turned No crown, no throne, just a bond held tight We carry our own through the long cold night [Final Chorus] One crew, one code, ten toes on the pavement Say it with your chest, let the whole block say it No bluff, no break, we don't fold under pressure One crew, one code, all together, all together [Outro] One crew One code All together
