[Intro] Mm Yeah [Verse 1] Sun leans low on the corner store sign Orange on the glass, I got plans in my mind Same cracked sidewalk, new shoes, same run Mama said, “Go on, baby, get yours done” Bus window gold like a promise at rest I write my name big where the night gets blessed Rent still due, but I’m made for more Got a whole skyline hidden in my core [Pre-Chorus] I keep it close I keep it near Every hard thing Turns to clear One more block Then I rise City dreams In my eyes [Chorus] City dreams, city dreams Pull me up through the seams City dreams, city dreams I was born to chase these dreams Hold me up, don’t let go Watch me bloom in the glow City dreams, city dreams Yeah, I wear them like a crown [Verse 2] Crosswalk blinking like a beat I know Old brick walls got a copper glow My crew on the stoop with the late-day laugh Talking big moves while we split that cab I seen the doubt in a million forms Still I walk through it like I own these storms Every missed turn made the map more clear Every closed door made my vision steer [Pre-Chorus] I keep it close I keep it near Every hard thing Turns to clear One more block Then I rise City dreams In my eyes [Chorus] City dreams, city dreams Pull me up through the seams City dreams, city dreams I was born to chase these dreams Hold me up, don’t let go Watch me bloom in the glow City dreams, city dreams Yeah, I wear them like a crown [Bridge] If the whole town sleeps, I’m awake Counting all the steps that I still could take From the curb to the top, I can feel that shift Like the whole dark room just gave me lift [Final Chorus] City dreams, city dreams Pull me up through the seams City dreams, city dreams I was born to chase these dreams Hold me up, don’t let go Watch me bloom in the glow City dreams, city dreams Yeah, I wear them like a crown [Outro] Sunset fades, but I don’t fade I’m still here, and I’m still brave City dreams, city dreams Still calling out my name
