Late night, block quiet, but the city still hums
Pen in my hand, I'm just waiting for the words to come
Streetlights flicker like they know my name
Every corner got a story, every story got a flame
Momma said stay humble, keep your head on straight
Now I'm turning all the pressure into something great
City lights don't sleep, no
And neither do I
Chasing every dream
Underneath the sky
City lights don't sleep
Subway rumble is the beat beneath my feet
Writing verses on receipts, every line complete
Homies on the stoop talking 'bout the way it was
I'm just tryna build a future, doing what I love
City lights don't sleep, no
And neither do I
Chasing every dream
Underneath the sky
