Intro
Yeah… clock strike late, city never sleep, Lights on the dash, but the hunger run deep, Pockets start empty, but my vision been loud, I’m grindin’ through the silence just to move with the crowd.
Verse 1
Twelve-hour shifts, sneakers on the blacktop, Hustle out the trunk, turn the gravel to a backdrop, Phone buzz steady, I’m connectin’ all plays, From the corner to the stage, stackin’ nights into days. Every scar a medal, every bruise a crown, If they doubted when I rose, then they know it right now. Concrete taught patience, alleys taught drive, Every loss was tuition in the art to survive.
Pre-chorus
Head down, but the spotlight find me, Dreams cut sharp, like the world designed me, Pressure made diamonds, heat made flame, Now the chant hit the block and they screamin’ my name.
Chorus
Night shift crown on my head when I ride, Drums in the trunk, let the bass collide, Countin’ up eights while the skyline bend, I don’t break, I ascend, I don’t break, I ascend. Night shift crown, from the dirt I thrive, Every setback fuelin’ what keeps me alive, Countin’ up eights while the skyline bend, I don’t break, I ascend, I don’t break, I ascend.
Verse 2
Fast food bags, mixtape in the same hand, Passin’ out a story like a preacher to the wasteland, Whispers turn loud, now the echo got wings, What was scribbled in the dark, crowd gon’ sing. Chain heavy, not gold, just sweat from the fight, I been buyin’ my freedom one verse at a night. Haters post shadows, I just step in the glow, They can’t block what the hunger already chose.
Chorus
Night shift crown on my head when I ride, Drums in the trunk, let the bass collide, Countin’ up eights while the skyline bend, I don’t break, I ascend, I don’t break, I ascend. Night shift crown, from the dirt I thrive, Every setback fuelin’ what keeps me alive, Countin’ up eights while the skyline bend, I don’t break, I ascend, I don’t break, I ascend.
Bridge
Streetlights flicker but my focus steady, Heart beat sync with the kick, I’m ready, If they said it can’t be done, I’m the proof they wrong, Turnin’ overtime hours into lifetime songs.
Chorus
Night shift crown on my head when I ride, Drums in the trunk, let the bass collide, Countin’ up eights while the skyline bend, I don’t break, I ascend, I don’t break, I ascend. Night shift crown, from the dirt I thrive, Every setback fuelin’ what keeps me alive, Countin’ up eights while the skyline bend, I don’t break, I ascend, I don’t break, I ascend.
Outro
Yeah… crown never slips, even heavy with weight, Every mile in the grind just engravin’ my fate, From the night to the dawn, still I carry that flame, Layzr in the echo—remember the name.

Yeah… clock strike late, city never sleep, Lights on the dash, but the hunger run deep,
Head down, but the spotlight find me, Dreams cut sharp, like the world designed me,
Yeah… crown never slips, even heavy with weight, Every mile in the grind just engravin’ my fate,
