[Intro – low strings, distant rumble] The ground still moves. I just don’t fall anymore. [Verse 1 – clean grit] They said “Don’t build here, The earth remembers.” As if I didn’t know What tremors feel like under my ribs I laid the first brick anyway Mortar mixed with bone Because stability isn’t given It’s claimed and overthrown [Pre-Chorus] You can’t scare me with shaking ground I’ve lived in collapse before When the walls come down now I’m the one designing the floor [Chorus – soaring clean] This is a city on a fault line Built with deliberate hands Every crack is mapped in advance Every weakness planned If the earth decides to test me Let it split the land I don’t crumble with the tremor I command it where I stand [Verse 2 – clean with grit] I wired the bridges flexible Let the towers bend, not snap You learn from buried kingdoms How to outlast the collapse The skyline isn’t fragile It sways and still survives Because strength is not rigidity It’s knowing how to rise [Breakdown – harsh accent] Let it shake. Let it roar. I’ve felt worse before. [Bridge – clean powerful] The fault line didn’t leave It just became my guide I don’t erase the fracture I build with it inside [Final Chorus] This is a city on a fault line Unapologetically mine Every tremor just reminds me I’ve survived worse designs If destruction comes again It will not find me blind I don’t fear the shifting earth I architect the line
