Lyrics
*(Verse 1)*
We came barefoot through the wreckage
Middle fingers to the pressure
Cheap drinks, loud hearts, busted teeth
Still dancing like we’re born from heat
Black boots stomping through the floor
Every kick drum starts a war
No polished saints, no plastic fame
Just wild blood screaming our names
*(Pre-Chorus)*
We don’t want your hollow heaven
We don’t need permission
*(Chorus)*
Set the night on fire
Turn the speakers higher
We were never made to kneel
We were made to crash and feel
Throw your soul into the sound
Let the whole damn ceiling drown
Every heartbeat amplified
Like a riot coming alive
*(Verse 2)*
Sweat and smoke and spinning lights
Beautiful
Verse 3
Look I'm talking 'bout the passion of a soul that’s been refined
Trying to find the light when the whole world’s gone blind
Put the city on my shoulders while I'm moving through the zone
They see the gold on the surface they don’t see the broken bone
Used to wonder why the climb was so steep and so rugged
Now I’m turning all this pressure into something like a nugget
The same ones that used to doubt me hitting up the phone
But I’m standing in the center where the rhythm finds a home
See the vision never falters when you’re building from the gut
They trying to close the door but I’m jumping through the cut
Started at the bottom now I’m reaching for the ceiling
Can’t describe the atmosphere can you just catch the feeling
Drop
Yeah
Move the room
Keep it moving
Level up now
I feel it
Verse 4
I kept the circle small kept the mission on the track
Know exactly where I'm going never look back
See it’s more than just the money more than just the accolades
It’s the legacy we leave inside the echoes and the shades
Had to sharpen up my mind had to tighten up the grip
Floating through the stratosphere I never let it slip
Now we’re moving in a motion that the masses can’t define
Pure electric in the marrow pure conviction in the line
Started as a spark now the fire’s getting started
I did this for the real and the ones they call the departed
So let the low end hit while I'm finding my pace
Running toward the mirror see the power in my face
Outro
Keep it rolling
Resolution
Faded voices in the dawn, stories drifting in the air
Lessons written in the silence, only felt by those who care
Hearts still racing though the night has stretched its reach
Promises delivered in every word we couldn’t speak
Outro 2
So let the echoes linger where the footprints disappear
Let the memory of the moment be the thing that keeps us near
We chased the light together, didn’t waste what made us rare
Turned midnight into legend—left our shadows in the glare
Reprise
Hands to the sky, never coming down
Lost in the rush, til we paint the next town
Nothing left but faith in the lives that we found
The music is forever, it’s a circle, it’s a crown
