Bad Street Moon

I came from the noise where the broken lights glow

Keep my head high, still I move afloat

Feet in the fire, but I never fold

Talk all you want, I'm a story told

I wear my scars like gold on skin

Every loss taught me how to win

No palace dream, I made my own lane

Pray on my name, then I rise again

Bad street heart

But I keep it clean, movin' through the dark

Like I'm in that queen, whole world watchin'

They don't know my fight, I carry my faith

Through the heavy night

Bad street heart with his soul on band

Every hard mouth was a message sent

I don't pray, I just turn the pain

Into a flame that they can't contain

Glacier moon shining over, collect the blocks

Hear my steps like a steady clock

Castle in my bones, loot in my chest

I bought only to the one, nothing less

I learned calm in the scent of the storm

Kept my spirit warm, kept my soul firm

From the cold streets out to the light

I stand my ground, I clear my right

Bad street heart

But I keep it clean

Moving through the dark

Like a midnight queen

Whole world washed

Didn't know my fight

I carry my faith

Through the heavy night

Bad street heart

With a soul unbent

Every heart of mine

Was a mess again

I don't break

I just turn the pain

Into a flame

That they can't contain

If the world trusting my name

I let the truth outlive the shame

I walk with grace through the concrete road

Still I'm hungry, still I want more

Bad street heart, but I keep it clean

Movin' through the dark like a midnight queen

Whole world watchin', hit them in my fight

I carry my faith through the heavy night

Bad street heart, that's the soul I'm in

Every heart I'm out is a mess of sin

I don't break, I just turn the pain

Into a stain that they can't contain
