Neon Light Dreams

Time make me bolder, baby,

Even children feel older lately,

I been thinkin’ ’bout it daily,

Does it ever drive you crazy?

We’re not here for long, baby,

So I’m tryna live it strong lately.

City lights buzzin’, hear the trains go scream,

Everybody chase gold, I’m chasin’ a dream,

Woke up late still feelin’ like the mayor,

Toast burnt black but I still say a prayer.

Late nights, bright signs, city still awake,

Hands cold, heart warm, gotta make a way,

Too many thoughts in a hoodie pocket,

Dreams take flight like a loose sky rocket.

You know it’s not the same as it was,

World got rough but I’m still too tough,

Moonwalk smooth through the stress at night,

No chain glow but my words shine bright.

And maybe time keeps stealin’ us away,

But I still got somethin’ real to say.

Every cracked road got a story underneath,

Every lost soul still searchin’ for peace,

I hear the sirens sing lullabies downtown,

While broken hearts keep spinnin’ around.

Pocket full of hope and a head full of noise,

Tryna find myself in this world of decoys,

Some days hit hard, some nights feel cold,

But the fire in my chest still burn like gold.

And if tomorrow never waits for me,

I just hope you hear these melodies,

’Cause every second slips like sand,

Still I’m holdin’ on with steady hands.

You know it’s not the same as it was,

But I survived every scar because

Late nights taught me how to fight,

Turn dark days into neon light.

Time make me bolder, baby…

And I’m still dreamin’ lately.
