Dust and Gold Horizon (versione 2)

Verse

Red earth road behind the mine dump

Dust rising slow where my father walked

Water tower rusted, still it's standing

Same horizon line where the light gets caught

Chest open wide to the morning heat

Bassline low from a taxi speaker

Grandfather's boots wore this exact street

Every step I take, the ground gets deeper

Pre-Chorus

Feel it building in my shoulders

Feel it climbing through my chest

Every road my people walked here

Leads me straight into the west

Chorus

Dust and gold horizon

Dust and gold horizon

I move where they moved

Dust and gold horizon

Verse

Corrugated roofs catching first light

Hips remember what the drum is saying

Smoke from the coal stove curling white

Feet find the beat without me playing

Old woman sweeping dust off her stoep

Same rhythm my blood keeps returning

Sun climbs over the mine dump slope

Gold on the tin roofs, the whole sky burning

Pre-Chorus

Feel it building in my shoulders

Feel it climbing through my chest

Every road my people walked here

Leads me straight into the west

Chorus

Dust and gold horizon

Dust and gold horizon

I move where they moved

Dust and gold horizon

Bridge

Hands up, palms open to the burning line

Breath slow, matching the drum's design

Every grain of dust knows my name

Every sunrise says it again

Chorus

Dust and gold horizon

Dust and gold horizon

I move where they moved

Dust and gold horizon
