[Intro] (Deep, vibrating industrial bass pulse) (Spoken, low rasp) Yeah. Concrete’s cracking. The frost is dead. (Ad-lib: Rest in peace) Wake up. [Verse 1] (Fast, aggressive flow) Winter had the city in a chokehold, cold and grey But I’m back out on the block, clearing out the decay Snapback tilted, yeah I’m feeling the thaw The sun hitting the brick like a heavy-handed claw (Ad-lib: Work!) I’m shedding the skin, shedding the coat, shedding the doubt I’m the loud-mouthed hunger that they warned you about The asphalt is steaming, the steam is a ghost I’m back on my throne and I’m doing the most. [Chorus] (Shouted energy, heavy brass hits) Feel the spring, feel the tension in the air! The city’s coming back, yeah, I see 'em everywhere! (Ad-lib: Look!) No more hiding in the shadows, no more staying in the cage We’re turning the street to a center-stage Yeah, I’m wired, I’m inspired, I’m a fuse about to blow I’m the green through the cracks, watch the garden grow! [Verse 2] (Vocal Shift: Gritty rasp, rhythmic growl) Meet me at the court, meet me by the iron gate After months in the dark, yeah we ain't gonna wait (Ad-lib: Move!) Scuffed up Nikes, but I’m smooth with the strut Got the windows rolled down and the speakers in a rut I see the people coming out like a flood in the lane Washing off the salt and the winter and the rain I’m a tomboy, baby, and I’m owning the park Lighting up the day 'cause I finished the dark. [Chorus] (Shouted energy, heavy brass hits) Feel the spring, feel the tension in the air! The city’s coming back, yeah, I see 'em everywhere! (Ad-lib: Look!) No more hiding in the shadows, no more staying in the cage We’re turning the street to a center-stage Yeah, I’m wired, I’m inspired, I’m a fuse about to blow I’m the green through the cracks, watch the garden grow! [Bridge] (Beat drops to a heavy, pulsing heartbeat) (Vocal shift: Fast, rhythmic breathing in time with the 808s) [Heavy Breathing] (Whispered, fast) Right here. In the light. (Growled) Let 'em watch. The city is ours. (Building intensity) Can you feel it? The heat... YEAH! [Chorus] (Shouted energy, heavy brass hits) Feel the spring, feel the tension in the air! The city’s coming back, yeah, I see 'em everywhere! (Ad-lib: Look!) No more hiding in the shadows, no more staying in the cage We’re turning the street to a center-stage Yeah, I’m wired, I’m inspired, I’m a fuse about to blow I’m the green through the cracks, watch the garden grow! [Outro] (Aggressive siren sounds and heavy bass) (Spoken, breathless) Spring is here. And I’m the main event. (Ad-lib: Yeah!) (Fade out with industrial reverb)
