Filtered Light on Adeyemi Street (wersja 2)

Verse

Shutter slats throw stripes on the tile

Rust at the hinge, dust in the seam

Someone's sandal scrapes through the gap

Generator hums under the beat

Pre-Chorus

We watch the grille turn amber then grey

We count the bars as the sun climbs through

We keep our shadows long on the floor

We stay while the street wakes up too

Chorus

Filtered light on Adeyemi Street

Filtered light on Adeyemi Street

Filtered light on Adeyemi Street

Filtered light on Adeyemi Street

Verse

Vendor's cart wheels creak past the door

Diesel smoke drifts thin through the crack

Bassline low against tin roofing

Nobody turns their body back

Pre-Chorus

We watch the grille turn amber then grey

We count the bars as the sun climbs through

We keep our shadows long on the floor

We stay while the street wakes up too

Chorus

Filtered light on Adeyemi Street

Filtered light on Adeyemi Street

Filtered light on Adeyemi Street

Filtered light on Adeyemi Street

Bridge

A woman sweeps dust past the entrance

Broom strokes slow, keeping our time

The shutter lifts higher each minute

Traffic hums low, folded in the rhyme

Chorus

Filtered light on Adeyemi Street

Filtered light on Adeyemi Street

Filtered light on Adeyemi Street

Filtered light on Adeyemi Street
