[Verse 1]
I came up where the pavement crack
Same few faces, same paper stack
Mama said, "Boy, keep your head on straight"
I said, "I know, but the rent don't wait"
Old corners talk, I hear what they mean
Grocery bags swing, I'm chasing green
No big speech, I just move in silence
Stay low-key with a grin, that violence
Fresh scrape on the whip, ain't new to the block
I don't front for the 'Gram, I move when it's hot

[Pre-Chorus]
Know the sound when I step in
Whole room shift, then the check spin
No cap, I been that one
Watch me slide when the day get done

[Chorus]
Talk that talk, I do
Curbside walk, I do
Same hood, same bruise
Still I make my own moves
Talk that talk, I do
Curbside walk, I do
They know the vibe when I pass through
I don't ask, I just do

[Verse 2]
Late-night plate on a paper tray
Heard bad news, still I made my way
Homie got booked, we keep his name alive
Little ones watchin', they can feel that drive
Auntie in the kitchen, packing up greens
Uncle told me, "Boy, don't die for a scheme"
So I learned quick, move sharp, move calm
Keep a clean face, keep my word strong
Came from blocks where the windows glare
Every day's a test, but I'm built for air
I don't chase clout, I chase my lane
If it ain't real life, it don't feel the same

[Pre-Chorus]
Know the sound when I step in
Whole room shift, then the check spin
No cap, I been that one
Watch me slide when the day get done

[Chorus]
Talk that talk, I do
Curbside walk, I do
Same hood, same bruise
Still I make my own moves
Talk that talk, I do
Curbside walk, I do
They know the vibe when I pass through
I don't ask, I just do

[Bridge]
Had to build it from scraps and doubts
Had to learn who to trust around
Now I move with a colder calm
Still that spark when the pressure's on

[Chorus]
Talk that talk, I do
Curbside walk, I do
Same hood, same bruise
Still I make my own moves
Talk that talk, I do
Curbside walk, I do
They know the vibe when I pass through
I don't ask, I just do
