Fire in the Waist (versie 2)

Verse

Rooftop tile catching amber light

Smoke curling slow through the night

Beads on my chest catch every sway

Dust in my palm from a thousand days

Neon bleeding into blue

Strangers turn family quick and true

Speaker shaking the cement floor

Nobody's leaving, nobody's poor

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it climbing up your spine?

Sky turning silver on the line

Chorus

Fire in the waist, burning slow like coal

Watch it rise till the dark turns to gold

Hands go high when the bass drop low

Fire in the waist and we won't let it go

Verse 2

Barefoot steps across the concrete floor

Salt on my lip where the night just poured out for more

Someone's shoulder catching every spark

Heat in my blood like a match struck hard

Market women dancing with their baskets down

Young boys shouting till the whole block turns around

Every rooftop lit up, every voice is loud

This the hour when we make it count

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it climbing up your spine?

Sky turning silver on the line

Chorus

Fire in the waist, burning slow like coal

Watch it rise till the dark turns to gold

Hands go high when the bass drop low

Fire in the waist and we won't let it go

Bridge

Someday this flame will fade to grey

But tonight it's ours, keep saying that again

No clock, no name, just heat, just skin

This is how the city learns to begin

Chorus

Fire in the waist, burning slow like coal

Watch it rise till the dark turns to gold

Hands go high when the bass drop low

Fire in the waist and we won't let it go
