Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro – 10s, rising chords + heartbeat] They tried to break the streets… But the streets made me. ⸻ [Verse 1 – 35s] I came from cracked sidewalks, late-night trains, Sirens singing through the growing pains, Saw fear wear crowns, saw hope stay low, Learned real strength don’t beg or boast. I ain’t born chosen, ain’t blessed with grace, I earned my scars in a hard place, When the lights went out, I didn’t flee, I listened close— The city spoke to me. Every lie they sold, every chain they threw, Made my resolve cut cleaner, truer, I don’t float above, I don’t disappear— I stand right here. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus – 12s] Power don’t make you a king, It’s who you lift when the whole world leans. ⸻ [Chorus – 30s, big & melodic] I stand with the city, shoulder to flame, Heart still human, never changed, No throne, no crown, no fear to hide, I don’t rule the night— I light the sky. I stand with the city, win or fall, If it calls my name, I answer the call, Hope ain’t loud, but it’s always strong— This is my home. This is my song. ⸻ [Verse 2 – 35s] I trained in silence, learned control, Turned raw power into a steady soul, Every step measured, every breath earned, Some lessons hurt, but I learned. I watched a hero show me truth, That strength is patience, not just proof, Now I carry more than sparks and light— I carry lives through the fight. They tried to cage what they couldn’t own, But the city raised me, made me grown, If tomorrow’s dark, I won’t run— I’ll be the one. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus – 12s] I don’t need legends carved in stone, I just need the courage to stand alone— Then stand together. ⸻ [Chorus – 30s] I stand with the city, shoulder to flame, Heart still human, never changed, No throne, no crown, no fear to hide, I don’t rule the night— I light the sky. I stand with the city, hear it breathe, Every broken block believes, From the shadows to the dawn’s first song— This is my home. This is my song. ⸻ [Bridge – 20s, stripped then rising] If they come back wearing fear again, I won’t become what I’m fighting then, No revenge, no hollow win— I protect the future, not the sin. Let the villains know, let the heroes see, Power bows to responsibility. ⸻ [Final Chorus – 35s, full power] I stand with the city, here to stay, Day by day, I’ll find a way, No mask to drop, no myth to sell, Just truth ringing like a bell. I stand with the city, loud and clear, You don’t need gods when hope is here, If the dark returns, if the night is long— I’ll still be standing. I’ll still be strong. ⸻ [Outro – 10s, calm resolve] They asked who I am… I’m not the end. I’m the beginning— Standing with the city
