Lyrics

[INTRO] Yeah, it's a story of a man who changed the game, Its De La Cruz on the mic, 180 seconds of pain. [VERSE 1] Thirty years in and out, From the gill as a juvie, to the adult penitentiary. Spent so much time in a cell, with almost 10 years of it, in hell. Which was Sterling correctional, and many other joints across Colorado I walked the wall, Cold concrete, hot nights, I took it all. Robberies, high‑speed chases, adrenaline high, Now I'm on the street, no more that life, now looking for a wife. I cut the chain, broke the lock, left the past in dust, Got out the system, hope was a trust. Thought I’d be a hero, a new day on the rise, But the world’s a mirror, reflection of my disguise. [CHORUS] De La Cruz retired the bad guy, I’m clean, I’m legit, But the devil’s in my pocket, he’s still in my wit. I’m cruising through Denver, MeBenzo shining bright, Fighting demons, keeping my rage in the night. [VERSE 2] Parole was broken, my freedom was sold, I tried to walk straight, but I’m still cold. The demons scream, they’re calling my name, My temper rises, I can’t keep it tame. And I'm saying gangstalkers and all. They say, “You’re a ghost, you can’t be seen,” I’m the phantom, the nightmare in your dream. I stare them down, mean mugging these bitch ass gangstalkers, saying “FUCK YOU to each and every one” definitely no fear in my eyes, I’m the king of the street, the one who defies. [BRIDGE] El Diablo in my mind, always in the back, I’m the war that never stops, I’m the one they lack. No more robberies, but the money’s still the same, I’m legit but my soul’s still burning flame. [CHORUS] I’m a good guy, I’m clean, I’m legit, But the devil’s in my pocket, he’s still in my wit. I’m driving through Denver, MeBenzo be shining bright, Fighting demons, keeping my rage in the night. [VERSE 3] All alone on the road, the city’s neon glow, I keep it quiet but the anger starts to flow. I’m a beast who now reps the light, I’m a ghost in the night, The streets, Mebenzo, el Diablo, and punk ass Get▪︎dough Still in my life
