A City Within a Market

[Intro] Sunrise hums over the market square Keke horns float like birds in the air [Verse 1] People spill out with laughter and trade, side by side Ceilings of sunlit stalls, bright cloths in the light A grandmother guiding a child through the crowd Greeting strangers with a smile, everyone knows how [Pre-Chorus] Hands exchange songs in coins, in stories, in bread Footsteps drum in rhythm where every beat is fed [Chorus] We move as one city, threads in a woven street Faces tell a chorus where strangers greet In every handshake and hello, a quiet grace Together we rise, in this bustling place [Verse 2] A barber hums a tune while she trims a day A vendor counts mint, a trader seals theay Market drums blend with laughter under the sun Neighbors share a joke, the moment becomes one [Pre-Chorus] Shadows lengthen kindly as the day moves along We hear the heartbeat of commerce in a communal song [Chorus] We move as one city, threads in a woven street Faces tell a chorus where strangers greet In every handshake and hello, a quiet grace Together we rise, in this bustling place [Bridge] From riverbank to market lane, the city breathes Every smile a bridge, every helping hand a wreath [Chorus] We move as one city, threads in a woven street Faces tell a chorus where strangers greet In every handshake and hello, a quiet grace Together we rise, in this bustling place [Outro] Night settles softly on the palm-lined way We carry the light of today into tomorrow’s day
