Fuoco che non si spegne（版本 2）

Verse

Block still quiet at three thirty am

Radio static turning the whole sky gray

Cigarette burning down to a ember line

Every window in this row got my name

Mama's key turned over when I said it was time

Four months I held that rent, four months I made ends stay

Bullard Street lights flicker like they're scared of me now

Someone knocked out the lamp post just so they could know

My boots make a hollow echo on the wet pavement concrete

Every head turns soft while they count how many rounds I took

Pre-Chorus

Tell me why they let it burn once and then left to watch

Tell me if this corner ever holds still when I'm gone

Sneakers squeak in unison as they step off the curb

Somebody's gonna answer, somebody's gonna show up

Every block got its own clock, mine says go or go home tonight

I'm not asking for a handout, just a second light to hold

Chorus

Light me up like a wildfire, watch it never die down

Corner boys to corner bosses in one little town

Street said burn but I kept the spark inside

Fuel every empty house with what they thought was nothing here tonight

Burn it down then rise from the ashes like gold in the rain

Light me up like a wildfire, watch it never die down

Verse 2

Now the whole street's talking 'bout the kid who brought heat

Some say I'm the devil, some say I'm what keeps it neat

Board members whisper in the back room, they all wanna know my plan

I said keep building till the whole city lights up this man

Corner store owner handed me a new key last week

Said this is home now, not just rent you're paying to stay weak

Some nights the sirens roll and I stand tall like it don't touch my chest

Others the whole block breathes slow and forgets what they feared the most

Pre-Chorus

Tell me why they let it burn once and then left to watch

Tell me if this corner ever holds still when I'm gone

Sneakers squeak in unison as they step off the curb

Somebody's gonna answer, somebody's gonna show up

Every block got its own clock, mine says go or go home tonight

I'm not asking for a handout, just a second light to hold

Chorus

Light me up like a wildfire, watch it never die down

Corner boys to corner bosses in one little town

Street said burn but I kept the spark inside

Fuel every empty house with what they thought was nothing here tonight

Burn it down then rise from the ashes like gold in the rain

Light me up like a wildfire, watch it never die down

Bridge

Some men carry embers as their last goodbye

I hold it for tomorrow, not some dying sky

The block don't forget what I made them learn one night

Corner light still burns at midnight, brighter than the sun now bright

Outro

Light me up like a wildfire, watch it never die down

Now they all remember who kept this whole block lit and loud
