Streetlights Don't Lie (versione 2)

Verse

Corner store window, cracked like glass

Empty bottles ringing out the past

Fire pit burning where we used to sit

Talking loud just so they wouldn't hit

Mama worked three shifts stacking cans

Told me money don't talk back no plans

But the way that low end shakes my chest

Said this whole block already knows the rest

Pre-Chorus

So what's a boy with a bassline pulse

Do when the whole street turns up loose

Somewhere between the noise and light

Something older starts to ignite

Chorus

Streetlights don't lie, they just glow gold on pain

We built this rhythm out of nothing, out of rain

Every drum hit's a weight we throw away

This is how the corner came alive today

Verse 2

Radio hiss at midnight, static and soul

Furniture stacked up where the speakers roll

Broken water pipe but nobody leaves

Cause the sub drops heavy underneath our knees

Strangers turn to family over two-step kick

Same four bars we been repeating quick

Now the windows rattling like a second drum

Every light post swaying till it becomes one

Pre-Chorus

So what's a boy with a bassline pulse

Do when the whole street turns up loose

Somewhere between the noise and light

Something older starts to ignite

Chorus

Streetlights don't lie, they just glow gold on pain

We built this rhythm out of nothing, out of rain

Every drum hit's a weight we throw away

This is how the corner came alive today

Bridge

Not the noise that keeps me up at dawn

It's knowing every single voice was born

Outta hunger and a cracked window hum

This whole block became one heartbeat when the drums come out

I'll never leave this feeling behind

Cause the same ground where my mother cried

Now it's shaking underneath my feet tonight

Chorus

Streetlights don't lie, they just glow gold on pain

We built this rhythm out of nothing, out of rain

Every drum hit's a weight we throw away

This is how the corner came alive today
