Gold Dust, Bare Feet

Intro

Light comes low

Gold on the floor

Bare feet know

What the ground is for

Verse

Rooftop concrete still holds the night

Cold under my heel, then warm

Sun cracks open behind the water tank

Skin remembers this exact form

Pre-Chorus

Feel it rising through the arches

Feel it climbing through the spine

Every ancestor still dances

Every sunrise breaks the line

Chorus

Gold dust, bare feet

Gold dust, bare feet

Moving where they moved

Gold dust, bare feet

Verse

Taxi rank behind me quiet now

Speakers still warm from the bass

Grandmother crossed this same red dirt

Left her rhythm in this place

Pre-Chorus

Feel it rising through the arches

Feel it climbing through the spine

Every ancestor still dances

Every sunrise breaks the line

Chorus

Gold dust, bare feet

Gold dust, bare feet

Moving where they moved

Gold dust, bare feet

Bridge

Toes press down, the city hums

Heat rises off the tar

Every step I take this morning

Says I know who they are

Chorus

Gold dust, bare feet

Gold dust, bare feet

Moving where they moved

Gold dust, bare feet

Outro

Light comes low

Gold on the floor

This is how

We open the door
