Intro
Corner store gated, the pavement is cold Swapping tomorrow for baggies and foil
Verse 1
Stand on the block where the awning is torn Five years ago we was loud on this corner Now it's just candles melting on glass Teddy bears soaking up rain in the grass Look at the lamppost, tape and a picture Thought it was blues but the fetty is quicker Tuesday at dusk and the weather is freezing Half of my cousins stopped walking and breathing
Pre-chorus
Watch how the yellow tape stretches and bends Nobody warns you the way that it ends
Chorus
Used to yell names from the court to the street Now we just wearing their names on a tee Thought it was medicine, swallowed a lie Fentanyl Alley, where everyone dies They dropping the price, we paying the toll Living the contrast of bodies and cold
Verse 2
Trace it right back from the trap to the source Somebody cook it with zero remorse Somebody press it, powder to blue Somebody bag it and sell it to you Pass down the chain till it hits my own block Handed to kids who just staring at clocks Here is the sickness that messes my head The brother I love sold the pill to the dead
Pre-chorus
Watch how the yellow tape stretches and bends Silence is loud when you burying friends
Chorus
Used to yell names from the court to the street Now we just wearing their names on a tee Thought it was medicine, swallowed a lie Fentanyl Alley, where everyone dies They dropping the price, we paying the toll Living the contrast of bodies and cold
Verse 3
Three in the morning, the trap phone is ringing Hear the sirens, the ambulance singing Mother is screaming, dropping her knees Everybody swearing to God that it ends Then nothing changes, the casket goes down I flash to him laughing, the clown of the town Talking 'bout plans, talking 'bout moves Now he just dirt and some unworn shoes
Bridge
Just the 808 pulse. Just the quiet. Marcus... I'm sorry.
Verse 4
Done blaming the block, I'm seeing the pipeline Suits in the boardroom drawing the white line Pharmacies push it, the clinics are scarce Hood gets policed while the suburbs get care Targeted zip codes, poison flows down System designed to be thinning the town Ain't personal choice when the trap is a cage Turn off the grief and turn up the rage
Verse 5
Keep names alive, keeping the roster Narcan strapped inside of my posture Stop scrolling past another OD This epidemic is you and it's me Check on your people, check on your blood Poison is drowning the streets in a flood Don't look away, stare at the chalk Fentanyl Alley is everyone's walk
Chorus
Used to yell names from the court to the street Now we just wearing their names on a tee Thought it was medicine, swallowed a lie Fentanyl Alley, where everyone dies They dropping the price, we paying the toll Living the contrast of bodies and cold
Outro
Watch the block hollow out. Stay awake.
