Lyrics
[Intro]
Midnight keys
Dust on the lid
Hands on the scars
Heart on the grid
[Verse 1]
I grew up where the floorboards creak
Mom humming over boiling steam
Bills on the fridge like wanted posters
Dreams in the couch with the crumbs in the sofa
Old piano in the church downstreet
Found my name in a cracked white key
Pastor said “boy, that sound is a gift”
I heard a door in my chest unlock and shift
[Chorus]
Piano on the block, I let it talk for me
Notes spill out all the things I never speak
Every chord is a bruise that learned to breathe
(yeah, yeah)
I play the pain, let the rhyme walk free
Turn hard years into harmony
That old piano on the block keep saving me
(saving me, saving me)
[Verse 2]
Friends went left, disappeared in the sirens
I stayed late, hit escape in the silence
Writing my name in the dust on the fallboard
Telling myself I was built for a long war
Mama at the table with her tired eyes
Said “sing your prayers, make ‘em real this time”
So I loop that line when the night gets loud
Her voice in the vamp like a ghost in the crowd
[Chorus]
Piano on the block, I let it talk for me
Notes spill out all the things I never speak
Every chord is a bruise that learned to breathe
(ohh)
I play the pain, let the rhyme walk free
Turn hard years into harmony
That old piano on the block keep saving me
(yeah, yeah, saving me)
[Bridge]
Keys chipped up
But they still shine
I was half hope
Now I’m full-time
If I lose faith
In what I am
I just lay my hands
Where it all began
[Chorus]
Piano on the block, I let it talk for me
Notes spill out all the things I never speak
Every chord is a bruise that learned to breathe
(let it breathe, let it breathe)
I play the pain, let the rhyme walk free
Turn hard years into harmony
That old piano on the block keep saving me
[Outro]
[Beat drops to solo piano]
That old piano on the block keep saving me
(fade, fade)

Style
rap, Moody boom-bap with a detuned grand piano loop and deep, swung drums; intimate male vocals close to the mic. Verses ride the pocket with sparse bass and subtle vinyl crackle; chorus blossoms with stacked call-and-response ad-libs and extra piano octaves. End with a stripped piano outro and fading delay on the last vocal line., hip hop
