Rooftop Rundown 3 (wersja 2)

Intro

Taped up tight, iron hot on the block

Two AM and the whole crew's locked

Verse

Corner store still holds the last of the bread

Flicker candle light where the numbers got fed

Your mother in white, running out to get milk

You're six years old learning how to watch for the silk

Your brother's sneaking fives from the man down the street

Tellin' you he's saving it just in case they need heat

Pre-Chorus

What's the real value of a house that ain't got a door?

Can you keep the promise when the fire don't roar?

Is a rooftop still a roof if there ain't no frame?

You know I been thinking on this for days, yeah

Chorus

This rooftop rundown, it's where we made our own rules

Concrete cold but the heart was warm as gold

You and me standin' here with the wind in your throat

I'ma make you proud so don't let go of hope

Rooftop rundown, no walls to define us

Every brick is heavy but love got wings, yeah

Verse

Your father passed before the summer began

Left a note sayin' he'd watch you from wherever man

You found a box in his closet with a key and a map

A whole different house was waiting down on the trap

Three of us living off what he saved up to spare

Poured concrete for an oven, cooked meals without care

You were my apprentice in every single way

Pre-Chorus

What's the real value of a house that ain't got a door?

Can you keep the promise when the fire don't roar?

Is a rooftop still a roof if there ain't no frame?

You know I been thinking on this for days, yeah

Chorus

This rooftop rundown, it's where we made our own rules

Concrete cold but the heart was warm as gold

You and me standin' here with the wind in your throat

I'ma make you proud so don't let go of hope

Rooftop rundown, no walls to define us

Every brick is heavy but love got wings, yeah

Bridge

Maybe the roof's just a memory now

But I taught you how to build and rebuild somehow

You can take that with you wherever you roam

So when you land on your own rooftop someday alone

Chorus

This rooftop rundown, it's where we made our own rules

Concrete cold but the heart was warm as gold

You and me standin' here with the wind in your throat

I'ma make you proud so don't let go of hope

Rooftop rundown, no walls to define us

Every brick is heavy but love got wings, yeah

Outro

Taped up tight, iron hot on the block

This rooftop rundown was never locked
