Roots in Neon

[Intro] Soft footsteps, bright midnight [Verse 1] Black suit, clean lines, a quiet command Beaded necklace hums, heritage in his hand Street lights blur, the city breathes in time He walks with pride, future written in his stride [Chorus] I carry the past in the pulse of the night Stand tall, stay true, reach for the height Past and present blend in the neon glow Strength in my chest, let my roots show [Verse 2] Crowds rush by in colors vivid and loud He hears the drum of his ancestry in the crowd Modern dreams in his eyes, a careful grace A whisper of courage in every step he takes [Chorus] I carry the past in the pulse of the night Stand tall, stay true, reach for the height Past and present blend in the neon glow Strength in my chest, let my roots show [Bridge] From quiet streets to roaring avenues I wear my history like a badge I choose [Chorus] I carry the past in the pulse of the night Stand tall, stay true, reach for the height Past and present blend in the neon glow Strength in my chest, let my roots show [Outro] With every stride, the city learns my name Proud and ready, I claim my flame
