Lyrics

Prologue

Sky full of static, still I move with calm

Pressure on my shoulders, but I carry no qualm

Streets want a riot, but I choose the balm

Word is my weapon, yeah, my voice disarms

Intro

Quiet in the city, let the silence talk

Vision on the future, not the battles we fought

Cool minds steady, no need for the block

Put the hate on pause, let the violence get caught

Intro

Quiet in the city, let the silence talk

Vision on the future, not the battles we fought

Cool minds steady, no need for the block

Put the hate on pause, let the violence get caught

Verse 1

Midnight thoughts, I remember the days

Fists in the air, but it led to a maze

Looking for the exit, couldn’t find better ways

Till I saw the power, switching fury to praise

Never let ‘em push me, I don’t bow to the rage

Writing out my story, flipping over the page

Grew up in the struggle, but I’m freeing the cage

Dreams ain’t about war, they about what we change

Chorus

Peace in my lane, no fights in my mind

Woke up this morning, left the hate behind

No enemies, just love on my grind

Hands up high, yeah I'm searching for signs

Post-Chorus

All we need, all we need, all we need is peace

All we need, all we need, all we need is peace

Verse 2

Too much fighting in the streets, too many lost souls

I'm building with my brothers, never digging up holes

From the ground we rise, let the good vibes unfold

Never let the anger freeze, keep my heart on hold

I'm tired of the drama, see me switching up gears

Embracing every difference, cause there's power in peers

They want chaos, but I offer up cheers

Look me in the eyes, no fear, wipe them tears

Pre-Chorus

Refuse to play war games, I'm stepping out the race

Choosing something greater, let the healing take place

Made it through the madness, breaking out of that space

Only peace on my mind, nothing else to chase

Chorus

Peace in my lane, no fights in my mind

Woke up this morning, left the hate behind

No enemies, just love on my grind

Hands up high, yeah I'm searching for signs

Post-Chorus

All we need, all we need, all we need is peace

All we need, all we need, all we need is peace
