Emmures
Definition
Emmures (verb, 3rd person singular present): To enclose or imprison someone within walls, either literally (like in a dungeon or jail) or figuratively in hip-hop contexts—trappin' a soul in street life, toxic relationships, systemic poverty, or mental cages. Street linguistics twist: gettin' boxed in, no escape from the grind.
