We move like we own the sky

Verse

Rooftop car park, engines cooling down

Taxi uncle cuts the meter, turns it up loud

Security guard swaps his torch for a beer

Vendor's radio bleeding into here

Orange lights stack up block after block

Bassline climbing every water tank and lock

Someone's apron still tied at the waist

Nobody rushing, nobody in a race

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the whole block breathing

Rooftops turning into floors

Every tired hand still reaching

For a little bit more

Chorus

Beneath the city lights

We move like we own the sky

Beneath the city lights

Nobody's asking why

Beneath the city lights

The tired legs come alive

Beneath the city lights

Verse

Fold-up chairs and a cooler box of ice

Someone's daughter learning her mother's stride

Traffic hums low underneath the beat

Rubber soles scraping the concrete sheet

Uncle spins with his jacket on his arm

Neon sign flickers, throws a pink-lit charm

Whole shift done but the night's just woke

Smoke curls up from a shared last smoke

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the whole block breathing

Rooftops turning into floors

Every tired hand still reaching

For a little bit more

Chorus

Beneath the city lights

We move like we own the sky

Beneath the city lights

Nobody's asking why

Beneath the city lights

The tired legs come alive

Beneath the city lights

Bridge

Down below the buses idle slow

Up here we're the only ones who know

This grey roof turns to gold at midnight

Every worn-out face catching light

No stage, no ticket, just the view

Just the drum and the ones who stayed true

Chorus

Beneath the city lights

We move like we own the sky

Beneath the city lights

Nobody's asking why

Beneath the city lights

The tired legs come alive

Beneath the city lights
