[Verse] Night’s thick, streets cracked, bag heavy in my grip Last bus gone, no ride back, gotta make this trip Sidewalks whisper tales, neon flickers cheap Every step a story, shadows play for keeps [Pre-Chorus] Eyes watch, breath cold, city’s pulse in veins Feet pound, heart steady, rhythm in the pain [Chorus] Walk it off, slow and low, through the alleys where the streetlights glow Carrying more than just my load, yeah, I’m striding through what I know Walk it off, step by step, no bus ride, no safety net This pavement’s mine, ain’t over yet, walking home with my groceries set [Verse] Plastic bags like weighty chains, swaying with the midnight breeze Cracks in concrete under kicks, whispering stories in the freeze Sirens distant lullabies, city’s soundtrack in my ear Every block another beat, steady pulse, no room for fear [Pre-Chorus] Eyes sharp, mind clear, every shadow’s got a name Feet firm, pace clear, playing life’s uneven game [Chorus] Walk it off, slow and low, through the alleys where the streetlights glow Carrying more than just my load, yeah, I’m striding through what I know Walk it off, step by step, no bus ride, no safety net This pavement’s mine, ain’t over yet, walking home with my groceries set [Bridge] No shortcuts, no easy way, gotta earn each step today Hustle quiet, spirit loud, moving through this urban shroud Backpacks heavy, but I hold tight, chasing dawn through the longest night In every step, I claim my ground, in this city’s endless sound [Chorus] Walk it off, slow and low, through the alleys where the streetlights glow Carrying more than just my load, yeah, I’m striding through what I know Walk it off, step by step, no bus ride, no safety net This pavement’s mine, ain’t over yet, walking home with my groceries set [Outro] Last step, front door, breathe in the night’s cold air Groceries down, story’s sound, streets behind me, I’m walking somewhere
