[Verse]
Music ain't the same no more it’s true
We used to bump tracks we could sneak through
Back alleys and stores with beats in the air
Now it’s all streaming they don’t even care
[Verse 2]
Used to grab a tape from the rack so sly
Spin it in the player let the speakers cry
Now it’s all codes and links so cold
No thrill in the chase no stories to be told
[Chorus]
Where’s the grit where’s the soul
Where’s the beat you could steal to feel whole
Now it’s clean now it’s neat
But it’s lost the flavor of the street
[Verse 3]
Records spun like secrets in the dark
Now algorithms push charts no spark
We’d dance to the scratch of a stolen gem
Now playlists just feel like a locked system
[Bridge]
A world of music you could hold in your hand
Feel the weight of the rhythm understand
Now it’s just pixels nothing feels real
Where’s the danger the rush the steal
[Chorus]
Where’s the grit where’s the soul
Where’s the beat you could steal to feel whole
Now it’s clean now it’s neat
But it’s lost the flavor of the street |
