City Skin

[Intro] City lights blink like a heartbeat in the night Stepping out, my hoodie pulled tight Neon whispers, I answer in stride This concrete chorus lives in my spine [Verse 1] Midnight runway, I own this block Sneakers kiss the pavement, I never stop Crash of a mural, colors in my eyes I wear my secrets in the corners of the sky [Pre-Chorus] Breath hangs in rhythm with the trains above Every shadow teaches me to move with love [Chorus] I walk the streets with a brand-new grin Bold in my silence, loud from within City breathes me in, I breathe it out again This is my map, my voice, my city skin [Verse 2] Angles and alleys carve stories on my sleeve I’m chasing tomorrow, just to believe Clock ticks reckless, but I’m in control A spark in the dark, reinventing my soul [Pre-Chorus] Crowds blur, but I’m tuned to my own sound Striding awake where the lost are found [Chorus] I walk the streets with a brand-new grin Bold in my silence, loud from within City breathes me in, I breathe it out again This is my map, my voice, my city skin [Bridge] Under the overpass, I learned to fly No map but courage, no limit, no why If the rain comes, I’ll paint it gold And let my stories color every window cold [Chorus] I walk the streets with a brand-new grin Bold in my silence, loud from within City breathes me in, I breathe it out again This is my map, my voice, my city skin [Outro] When dawn breaks, I’m still here, alive and clear Hood up, heart open, chasing the next frontier
