Dust in the Amber Light

Intro

Dust rising slow

Amber on my skin

Verse

Cracked yard, courtyard walls

Feet find the rhythm my mother had

Sun drops low behind the wire fence

Gold in the air where the drums begin

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel them rising

Under the amber sky

Old bones remember

Every step, every sigh

Chorus

Dust in the amber light

We move like the ones before

Dust in the amber light

This body remembers more

Verse

Concrete warm beneath bare feet

Smoke and sweetness where the elders meet

Hands to the sky, then down to the ground

Grandfather's laughter in the low bass sound

Chorus

Dust in the amber light

We move like the ones before

Dust in the amber light

This body remembers more

Bridge

Every grain that lifts and falls

Carries a name I never lost

Every grain that lifts and falls

Settles soft, no matter the cost

Chorus

Dust in the amber light

We move like the ones before

Dust in the amber light

This body remembers more

Outro

Dust settles slow

Amber turns to gold

We are still here

We are still here
