Testify on the Concrete (Version 2)

Verse

Soles press down where the dust lies thin

Floor keeps count of the weight I bring

Every footstep leaves a little psalm

Cracked concrete learns the song I sing

Knees bend low like they're bowing down

Palms hit air where the bass line hums

Every heel drop writes a word in stone

This ground remembers everyone who comes

Pre-Chorus

Something rises through the sole of my foot

Speaks in a language older than sound

Floor holds still and takes what I give

Turns my weight into holy ground

Chorus

Testify on the concrete

Testify on the concrete

Every step a word I speak

Testify on the concrete

Verse

Chalk dust lifts where the shoulders sway

Echo climbs up the pillars and walls

Floor stays warm from a hundred feet

Holding steady while the whole room falls

Sweat drips down and joins the grain

Stone remembers what skin forgets

Kick drum splits the concrete wide

Nothing buried that the floor regrets

Pre-Chorus

Something rises through the sole of my foot

Speaks in a language older than sound

Floor holds still and takes what I give

Turns my weight into holy ground

Chorus

Testify on the concrete

Testify on the concrete

Every step a word I speak

Testify on the concrete

Bridge

No pulpit, no hour, no name to call

Just the ground and the weight of us all

Feet keep speaking, the floor keeps hold

Every story the concrete's told

Chorus

Testify on the concrete

Testify on the concrete

Every step a word I speak

Testify on the concrete
