Streetlights Remember Everything

Verse

Concrete cold beneath my palms

Every neon humming through my veins

I was running till the whole block shook

Then I stopped to watch it change

Barefoot on the asphalt in the rain

Smoke still ringing off the pavement tonight

The speakers bleed into a rhythm that won't break

Every heartbeat answering every light

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it rising up through the ground

This is the hour when the old streets turn around

Chorus

Streetlights remember everything I did tonight

Every shadow on my collarbone still shining bright

I am built for burning, born to light the sky

Streetlights remember everything, streetlights remember everything

Verse 2

Broken bottles in a trash can glow

Firecrackers popping, kids run wild and free

My mother's window lit up one more time

Than it was when I left to break this mold of me

The fire in my chest used to scare the whole block

Now they're dancing like I'm some kind of gold

I was once just a name nobody could recall

Tonight every light on this avenue knows my soul

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it rising up through the ground

This is the hour when the old streets turn around

Chorus

Streetlights remember everything I did tonight

Every shadow on my collarbone still shining bright

I am built for burning, born to light the sky

Streetlights remember everything, streetlights remember everything

Bridge

Nobody told me this was what it feels like

To be a flame that someone's been waiting for

Hold your breath and watch the whole block ignite

This is forever, this is war

Chorus

Streetlights remember everything I did tonight

Every shadow on my collarbone still shining bright

I am built for burning, born to light the sky

Streetlights remember everything, streetlights remember everything
