Descrizione Description

A dark urban blues cover built on rain-soaked streets, restless memories and the stubborn fire that survives underneath.

Swinging guitars, deep slap bass and electric violin reshape the original into a grittier, more mature journey through loneliness, resilience and the search for somewhere to belong.

Lyrics

Yeah
Late nights
Still runnin'

Drivin' through the city while the rain falls down
Got a million thoughts but I don't make a sound
Everybody loves you when you're shinin' bright
But they disappear when you're losin' fights

I've been chasin' dreams through the empty streets
Tryna find peace where the shadows meet
Got scars hidden underneath this skin
Every loss I took made me stronger again

And I know
Nothing lasts forever but I'm still holding on
And I know
Storms can change the weather but they can't stop the sun

When the city lights fade and the nights turn cold
I'm still carrying flames that I never showed
I've been fighting my fears tryna not to break
All these memories keep me wide awake

When the city lights fade
I still hear your name
In the silence nothing feels the same

Everybody talks but they don't know pain
They only see the diamonds, never see the rain
Had to build myself back up all alone
Now I'm standing tall but I miss my home

Got some people prayin' for my downfall
Got some people waitin' just to watch me fall
But I'm movin' forward never lookin' back
Every scar I carry keeps me on track

And I know
Nothing lasts forever but I'm still holding on
And I know
Storms can change the weather but they can't stop the sun

When the city lights fade and the nights turn cold
I'm still carrying flames that I never showed
I've been fighting my fears tryna not to break
All these memories keep me wide awake

When the city lights fade
I still hear your name
In the silence nothing feels the same

Maybe one day I'll find what I'm searching for
Maybe one day I won't run anymore
But tonight I'm still chasing the horizon
Still believing there’s somewhere I belong

When the city lights fade and the nights turn cold
I'm still carrying flames that I never showed
I've been fighting my fears tryna not to break
All these memories keep me wide awake

When the city lights fade
I still hear your name
In the silence nothing feels the same

Late nights
Still runnin'
City lights fade
But I remain
