lyrics

Verse 1

Chicago night, the streets are cold
Every single day, we just try to keep ahold
Of any little peace that anybody to show
My city knows pain so my city has soul

The skyline beautiful, the vibe unusual
The weather's insane, nothing to get used to You can't trust none, everybody uses you
But I see it different, I ain't trying to lose the youth

Everybody struggl'in, everybody hustl'in
Work all day but you feel you have noth'in
Pain everyday, we try to rise above it
We're trying to feel alive, we're trying to feel someth'in

I'm trying to be a leader, show another way
I'm trying to be the light, show a better way
My people are dying, every single day
its time to get free! Its time to break away!


Hook -

I'm trying to be a leader, show another way
I'm trying to be the light, show a better way
My people are dying, every single day
its time to get free! Its time to break away!


Verse 2

I am the solution, mental pollution
Allows the illusions to cause us confusion
Chicago is ruthless, I'm shapin the future
I'm not angel but I ain't gonna shoot ya
Every rapper killin, every rapper dealing
Every rapper swaggin, every rapper poison!
Look, I'm trying to get my money, I'm trying to stack it high
I'm out here in the struggle, yeah I get high
But I ain't killing mine, I ain't killin time
I'm trying to be progressive man, really be fly
Cs is back, we service the people
So, just sit back, be focused & be you
New movement, new revolutions
New ideas for the new institutions
No more prisons, we're mentally boosted
Spiritually troopin, my soldiers can do this !

V!SUAL Chicago

​V!SUAL has a unique approach along with an intense work ethic that has given him an artistic angle not common in the industry. His sound is universal but rooted in the essence of Hip Hop and of the people and the streets of Chicago. His conscience message overshadows the violence and negative stereotypes Chicago has recently been recognized for.
