Rising With The Bass (έκδοση 2)

Verse

Block was quiet till the speakers hummed

Four years on the corner, never moved beyond it yet

Sneakers scuffed from chasing shadows that don't pay

Now they're paying me in smoke and a bassline

Rent check's overdue but the money's coming tonight

Every dollar's proof that I didn't give up, I didn't quit

Pre-Chorus

Something's breaking underneath the collarbone

Can you feel it climbing like it owns this road?

Sweat on the collar and a voice I never owned

This is how the block gets loud again

Chorus

I rise with the bass before the sun comes up

Fingers to the sky, this is how we get enough

Rising with the bass, rising with the bass

Every step I'm taking feels like a promise that will last

Verse

Mama's light bill folded in my jacket pocket

Counting every hundredfold, ain't looking back at it

Neighbors used to whisper now they're moving to the same beat

Same four corners got a new kind of heat

Speaker wire hanging off the fire escape ladder

Now the whole staircase dancing like it mattered

Pre-Chorus

Something's breaking underneath the collarbone

Can you feel it climbing like it owns this road?

Sweat on the collar and a voice I never owned

This is how the block gets loud again

Chorus

I rise with the bass before the sun comes up

Fingers to the sky, this is how we get enough

Rising with the bass, rising with the bass

Every step I'm taking feels like a promise that will last

Bridge

They said it wouldn't happen, said I'd never make it past the corner light

Now the whole block's shining in gold like we own the night

I ain't chasing validation, I just chase this feeling now

Something inside of me decided to rise up somehow

Chorus

I rise with the bass before the sun comes up

Fingers to the sky, this is how we get enough

Rising with the bass, rising with the bass

Every step I'm taking feels like a promise that will last
