Beneath the Smoke (النسخة 2)

Verse

Concrete walls where the night used to breathe

Speakers shaking every cell in me

Rooftop static, a hundred voices call

I was just a shadow climbing the wall

Corner store lights, half-lit windows 2

Every block got its own brand of hunger and fire

Pipes still humming from the old factory door

Kids like us burning through what the system ignored

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the smoke start to rise?

We're not just ghosts, we're opening eyes

Something in me knows it's time to rise

Chorus

Beneath the smoke where the fire runs deep

This is the come-up, this is how we bleed

Every struggle turned into a dream

Rising up off the streets and through the steam

Verse 2

Now I'm standing tall on the platform stage

Mics in my hand like it's been written in rage

Chorus line burning like a torch held high

Same streets still dark but they ain't gonna define me

Sister found her voice behind the lens

Brother turned his fear into a winning blend

I used to see the light through a broken pane

Now I'm holding doors that I never opened back before, back in vain

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the smoke start to rise?

We're not just ghosts, we're opening eyes

Something in me knows it's time to rise

Chorus

Beneath the smoke where the fire runs deep

This is the come-up, this is how we bleed

Every struggle turned into a dream

Rising up off the streets and through the steam

Bridge

I don't need no king or crown to reign

My block already knows my name

Every corner built me from the ground up

This ain't just mine it's yours and yours

We rise together or we sink alone

Beneath the smoke, beneath the stone

Chorus

Beneath the smoke where the fire runs deep

This is the come-up, this is how we bleed

Every struggle turned into a dream

Rising up off the streets and through the steam
