Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's dawn in mid-Autumn
The leaves on the ground are frozen
And their glazed with a frostin' on 'em
Each step they all crinkle under me
And each breath let out's like smoke
I can see it blown in front of me
The breeze against my cheek is unpleasantly bleak
And the rare feelin' of heat is what I desperately seek
It's odd, but as I walk, it seems the walls talk
I put my ear to cement but I can't bare it's thoughts
It says; I see you walking past me everyday
But you don't seem to ever change
It's like left, right
What's left in sight
Is the same as the last time you strayed these streets
I wish you'd just realize you're not
the person that you want to be
And you'll never reach those heights you seek
Unless you hear this city speak
[Chorus]
As the days get colder, I just grow older
Add another boulder upon my shoulder
Bad hand so I fold her, I wish I was bolder
Cause life's a bitch
And I ain't strong enough to hold her
[Verse 2]
I keep walkin, it's scary
The walls just talked, I hear thee
It's just that I don't hear thee clearly
I'm weary and weak from this trip I'm takin'
And my feet keep achin', these steps I'm makin'
Are a symbol, I'm unguided, undecided
I'm blinded, I have a purpose
But I'm hopeless to find it
I mind it, it gets worse this feelin'
So I keep my trail and I converse with buidings
Listen closely, I can guide you
Open up let me inside you
Let your heart lead every thing you choose
Don't let this life fly by you
It ain't simple there'll be fumbles
Just relax, stay focused, humble
Don't feel beat, you'll never feel worn out or weak
Now that you've heard this city speak it's speech
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
City speak, the city speaks
Just listen to the city speak, the city speaks
Just listen to the city speak, the city speaks
I listen to the city speak, the city speaks
The city speaks
[Verse 3]
I'd say I was high, but I haven't smoked for days
I'm parylized in the points that these walls have raised
And now I'm left by myself, I scream for help
But the walls seem to ignore me and leave me undealt
So I reflect on this past trip
And how it left me amazed and satisfied like a magic trick
I had to slip in order for myself to gain
Some perspective of life and a shield from pain
So as I walk these backroads I finally understand
The plan I need to pan in order to be a man
It's easy to me, it's clear and I can see
Now that I'm free I thank the city speak in me
[Chorus]
