[Percussion / Spanish Whisper Intro] Vela: Despacio, mi amor— Brianna: Let the night breathe. [Brianna — Verse 1] New Orleans got the heat sitting low on the street, gold drums in the distance and the rain on the beat. I got a red dress folded in my carry-on bag, left the whole week behind me, no looking back. My mama’s little chain and a number in my phone, but tonight I’m not calling, I’m good on my own. I used to think freedom was a room with no name, now I know it’s walking in and still staying the same. When the brass hits hard, I remember my town, all the girls on the porch when the sun went down. I bring that with me when the whole world spins, New Orleans in my blood, gold light on my skin. [Vela Maré — Pre-Chorus] Desde Caracas guardé la canción, sol en el pecho, fuego y razón. No vine a pedirte que me veas pasar, vine con mis sueños para despegar. [Shared Chorus] Cielo de azúcar, sugar in the sky, we got the whole night, we don’t gotta ask why. Dame la música, give me the light, New Orleans to Caracas, we’re alive tonight. Cielo de azúcar, sweet on my tongue, two different stories, one beat in the sun. No chains on our hearts, no fear in our eyes, we were made for this cielo de azúcar sky. [Vela Maré — Verse 2] Yo crecí con las ventanas abiertas al mar, con mi abuela diciendo, “No te dejes parar.” Vi la ciudad encenderse después del dolor, y aprendí que la fuerza también tiene color. Llevo mi casa en las palmas, mi voz en la piel, si me cierran la puerta, yo levanto otra vez. No soy sombra de nadie, no vine a seguir, tengo un mapa en la boca, tengo ganas de ir. De Caracas al mundo, con tacones y sal, con un cuatro cantando lo que no pude callar. Si la noche me llama, le respondo sin miedo, porque el cielo es más grande cuando yo lo reclamo. [Shared Chorus] Cielo de azúcar, sugar in the sky, we got the whole night, we don’t gotta ask why. Dame la música, give me the light, New Orleans to Caracas, we’re alive tonight. Cielo de azúcar, sweet on my tongue, two different stories, one beat in the sun. No chains on our hearts, no fear in our eyes, we were made for this cielo de azúcar sky. [Cuatro & Percussion Break] (Hand drums, cuatro melody, brass answers) Vela: Sube, sube— Brianna: Higher, higher— [Two-Voice Bridge] Brianna: I don’t leave my roots when I leave my door. Vela: Llevo mi historia donde vaya yo. Brianna: I don’t need a crown if I know my name. Vela: Mi fuego no pide permiso para arder. Both: Two roads, one horizon, no one can dim this glow. [Final Chorus / Ad-libs] Cielo de azúcar, sugar in the sky, we got the whole night, we don’t gotta ask why. Dame la música, give me the light, New Orleans to Caracas, we’re alive tonight. Cielo de azúcar, sweet on my tongue, two different stories, one beat in the sun. No chains on our hearts, no fear in our eyes, we were made for this cielo de azúcar sky. Vela: Cielo, cielo— Brianna: Sugar sky—
