Yeah... listen closely to the dusty streets. (uh-huh)
He woke up to the sound of the morning train Another heavy
sky full of dust and rain No coins in the pocket,
just a heavy chest In the heart of the alley,
putting dreams to test (whoa) He saw the older kids looking for
a quick run
Behind the concrete walls,
under a faded sun
This is the concrete jungle where we try to stand Writing our
own stories in the shifting sand (yeah) From the narrow lanes to
the highest peak This is the silent anthem that the struggle speaks
So he took a pen,
started carving out a lane Turned the concrete dust into a sweet
refrain No longer running with the shadows in the dark Every single
syllable was lighting up a spark (hah) Now the neighborhood is listening
to every word
The truest tale that the alleys ever heard
This is the concrete jungle where we try to stand Writing our
own stories in the shifting sand (yeah)
From the narrow lanes to the highest peak This is the silent
anthem that the struggle speaks
Yeah, we rise up from the ground...
(mmmm) No matter how deep the struggle.
