Verse
Kick drum counts my spine like beads
Four on the floor and my ribs agree
Concrete holding steady under sneakers
Ceiling starts to feel like a canopy
Weight I carried in through the door
Melts into the low end, isn't mine anymore
Shoulders drop, my chin finds the light
Floor stays flat but I'm climbing tonight
Pre-Chorus
Feel the room stretch upward slow
Feel my sternum lead the way
Nothing lifting me but the rhythm
Nothing pulling me but the play
Chorus
Concrete ascension, rising in place
Concrete ascension, still holding space
Feet don't leave but the body's flying
Concrete ascension, no time, no space
Verse
Elbows open like wings half-caught
Knees keep bending to the same low thought
Bassline builds me a staircase of pressure
Every step is a note I forgot
Hips unlock like a door in the dark
Sternum rising to meet the mark
Floor stays solid, my breath gets thinner
Somewhere between the outer and inner
Pre-Chorus
Feel the room stretch upward slow
Feel my sternum lead the way
Nothing lifting me but the rhythm
Nothing pulling me but the play
Chorus
Concrete ascension, rising in place
Concrete ascension, still holding space
Feet don't leave but the body's flying
Concrete ascension, no time, no space
Bridge
No wings, no ladder, no chariot
Just the floor and what it's carrying
Every kick a rung I'm reaching
Every breath a height I'm keeping
Chorus
Concrete ascension, rising in place
Concrete ascension, still holding space
Feet don't leave but the body's flying
Concrete ascension, no time, no space
