[Verse 1] There’s a pressure in the sky tonight, Thick as smoke but colder than steel. Minneapolis is holding its breath, Afraid of what the shadows reveal. Unmarked vans slide through the silence, Like predators that don’t need to roar. Every porch light flickers with warning, Don’t answer the knock at your door. [Pre-Chorus] People texting in coded whispers, Maps of danger drawn in fear. No one knows who’s safe anymore, Only that ICE is lurking near. [Chorus] It’s like poison in the air and biting cold in our lungs. A terror you can’t see but it settles on your tongue. Minneapolis is trembling under lights that never fade, And the cold hands of the law move like a blade. We’re terrified, but we’re still breathing, Even when the night feels unforgiving. [Verse 2] Mothers hide in basements praying, Kids learn silence like a skill. Every siren feels like a countdown, Every rumor feels too real. Agents move without a warning, No mercy in their stride. A city built on community Now forced to run and hide. [Pre-Chorus] Neighbors passing signals quietly, Hearts pounding through the walls. You can hear the fear in footsteps Echoing down the halls. [Chorus] It’s like poison in the air and biting cold in our lungs. A terror you can’t see but it settles on your tongue. Minneapolis is trembling under lights that never fade, And the cold hands of the law move like a blade. We’re terrified, but we’re still breathing, Even when the night feels unforgiving. [Bridge] But fear can spark a fire When people stand as one. A thousand trembling voices Still outweigh a loaded gun. We gather in the freezing dark, Refusing to disappear If they want to break this city, They’ll have to face us here. [Final Chorus] There’s poison in the air, but we’re fighting for our lungs. A terror in the streets, but we won’t come undone. Minneapolis is rising with a courage they can’t cage, And the cold hands of the law can’t stop our rage. We’re terrified, but we’re still breathing, And we’re not leaving.
