Intro (Soft Build)
Yeah…
Turn it up slow, let it glow
Verse 1
Streetlights hum where I learned to dream
Midnight trains and a small kitchen scene
Mama said, “Boy, put love in the pan”
If you rush the fire, you’ll miss who you are
Now the skyline fades in the rearview glass
But I still cook like it’s home at last
Pre-Chorus
I’ve been raised on noise and quiet nights
Big-city days, small-town pride
Chorus (Big Radio Hook)
I got city roots, country heart
Turnin’ real life into work of art
From a backroom stove to the open stars
Every beat drops where the flavors start
Yeah the lights get loud, but I play my part
Low and slow, yeah that’s my art
I don’t fake love, I don’t fake my start
City roots… country heart
Post-Chorus (EDM Pop Lift)
Hands up now, feel that sound
From the fire to the crowd
Let it rise, let it start
City roots, country heart
Verse 2
Farmers’ market on a downtown street
Fresh-cut herbs with a four-on-the-beat
Pickup truck with a city plate
Same old soul, just a different place
If the world tastes bitter, I season it right
Feed my people every night
Pre-Chorus
Some chase gold, some chase charts
I chase love in every part
Chorus
I got city roots, country heart
Every scar just played its part
From the sidewalk lights to the gravel dark
I built this life with a seasoned palm
When the bass drops low and the smoke alarm starts
I’m still right here where the real ones are
I don’t change sides, I just raise the bar
City roots… country heart
Bridge (EDM Breakdown → Clean Build)
Low and slow, let it ride
Feel that heat when the beat collide
Count it down—3, 2, 1
Final Chorus (Full Power / Radio Peak)
Yeah I got city roots, country heart
From a one-burner stove to the main-stage start
If you’re hungry for hope, pull up your chair
There’s enough love goin’ round right here
When the lights fade out and the night gets dark
I’m still cookin’ dreams from the same old spark
Hands stay real, no matter how far
City roots… country heart
Outro (Soft Chant Fade)
Low and slow… that’s who we are
