Ash and Amber Rhythm (versie 2)

Verse

Water tank drips down the tin roof edge

Corridor light hums low and gold

Grandfather's boots left prints in the courtyard

Bassline wakes what the walls still hold

Pre-Chorus

Feel it climb from my heel to my spine

Feel it settle behind my eyes

Ash on my breath, amber in the bassline

Rhythm remembers, rhythm don't lie

Chorus

Ash and amber rhythm

Ash and amber rhythm

Moving through the hostel

Ash and amber rhythm

Verse

Night train rattles past the taxi rank

Sparks off the wire, sweat on my chest

Sister spins where the elders gathered

Every beat carries us home to rest

Pre-Chorus

Feel it climb from my heel to my spine

Feel it settle behind my eyes

Ash on my breath, amber in the bassline

Rhythm remembers, rhythm don't lie

Chorus

Ash and amber rhythm

Ash and amber rhythm

Moving through the hostel

Ash and amber rhythm

Bridge

Smoke from the brazier folds into the dark

Palms on the drum skin, hands find the mark

Nobody taught me, my body just knew

This floor was a circle long before I moved through

Chorus

Ash and amber rhythm

Ash and amber rhythm

Moving through the hostel

Ash and amber rhythm
