[verse 1]
sunrise hits the concrete, looks like a cheap promise
a gilded sheen on another day defined by the bottomless
chasm of bills, the hustle where the honest man starves
my alarm clock is the siren song, the police running through the yards
yeah, i woke up to the sound of urgency, no time for ceremony
just lacing up the cheap sneaks, feeling lonely, a ceremony
of survival. i take 10,000 paces before the clock hits ten
past the landlord’s frown, past the places where the hope has been
evicted. my blueprint is the sidewalk crack, the fracture
showing the pressure of the system that wants to keep me captured
tryna outrun the census, outsmart the statistics
a teenage marathon man running on realistic ballistics

[chorus]
and i pace, and i run, underneath a painted~on sun
every step is a tally mark for a war that’s never won
10,000 paces, watch the horizon blur and spin
gotta move faster than the shadow of the man i could have been
the pavement is my prayer mat, the exhaust is my incense
just tryna breathe deep and build a life that makes some d~mn sense
10,000 paces—that’s the mileage of a dream deferred
hear the truth in the rhythm, every syllable inferred

[verse 2]
the corner store light fl!ckers, a beacon of bad decisions
see the same faces making the same compromises, same divisions
the elders tell me, “keep your head down, boy, don’t stir the pot,”
but how do you sing a revolutionary song in a whispering spot?
i see the city as a circuit board, and i’m a loose wire
spitting electricity, setting fire to the damp desire
for normalcy. they want me quiet, fitting the narrative
a small footnote. nah, i’m the declarative statement, the superlative!
every dollar earned is a handshake with desperation
every corner turned is a pivot from plantation mentality, nation
of broken mirrors reflecting broken smiles and broken pride
this ain’t a track meet, it’s a desperate place to hide
[chorus]
and i pace, and i run, underneath a painted~on sun
every step is a tally mark for a war that’s never won
10,000 paces, watch the horizon blur and spin
gotta move faster than the shadow of the man i could have been
the pavement is my prayer mat, the exhaust is my incense
just tryna breathe deep and build a life that makes some d~mn sense
10,000 paces—that’s the mileage of a dream deferred
hear the truth in the rhythm, every syllable inferred

[outro]
yeah… keep counting
one foot. two foot. 10,000 paces
still not there
