Erika in Motion

[Verse 1] She came in through the green plan Not the usual door Plant roots in the hardscape Woven into more Punta Espada called her name On the Guajira line She made the city listen To the leaves inside the spine [Pre-Chorus] Utrecht mornings, papers, trains She keeps her center here No noise can shake her focus She knows just what is near [Chorus] Erika, Erika, she sees what will grow Erika, Erika, where the good plans flow (Erika) She draws the line with care (Erika) And makes a way out there [Verse 2] Chief Urbanist Assistant The title stays too small She shapes the corridors And keeps the progress tall She works for the project Not beneath a name That quiet kind of freedom Makes the whole thing change [Pre-Chorus] April signed the paper For the wider road ahead Through compliance and the seasons She follows where it's led [Chorus] Erika, Erika, she sees what will grow Erika, Erika, where the good plans flow (Erika) She draws the line with care (Erika) And makes a way out there [Bridge] She learned the cold of early ice The pressure, step by step Now every measured square meter Keeps that same hard prep She trains in Utrecht evenings Local rounds, clean and bright Serious, but not consumed by What might come in sight [Chorus] Erika, Erika, she sees what will grow Erika, Erika, where the good plans flow (Erika) She draws the line with care (Erika) And makes a way out there
