Description
[Intro]
Cracked streetlamp, neon flicks — the corner's whisper thin (yeah)
Paper bag, breath fog, a Metro card with my grin
808 low like a heartbeat, piano stab — cold and small
Empty stoop, Tommy's jacket still hangs on the wall
[Verse 1]
Crack in the pavement like the line in my jaw
Corner store sign buzzin', says "Open" but it feels raw
Worn chain on my wrist, belt-scratch from last fall
A lighter with no flame — Rosa's note against the wall
Footsteps in puddles, echo short, echo long
Phone screen cracked with Marcus' last voice on a song
Clock in the deli stuck at three, time hangs and clings
I count cigarette butts like promises and broken things
[Pre-Chorus]
Cold breath, cold nights, breath fog on my name
I move slow in the dark, but the streets still know my pain
[Chorus]
Night takes my name — night takes my name (repeat)
Night knows my pain — drill in my veins
Night takes my name — night takes my name (chant)
Breath on the rail, I'm prayin' to rain
[Verse 2]
Slate-blue hoodie, hoodie soaked from gutters and tears
Shop window reflections, ghost-thin of better years
A busker plays minor keys, his hat is full of coins and scars
I spit two-line confessions into the underground cars
Tommy laughed like a pistol, now his laugh's just an echo
I keep his jacket on the bench where the streetlights go low
A dented bottle, a stained map folded in my coat
I memorize the route like the last lines I wrote
[Chorus]
Night takes my name — night takes my name (repeat)
Night knows my pain — drill in my veins
Night takes my name — night takes my name (chant)
Breath on the rail, I'm prayin' to rain
[Bridge]
I count subway stops like scars — twelve, thirteen, hold tight
Concrete sermons whisperin' that I might be alright
Paper prayers in my pocket, brittle but they weigh less
Brittle hope on a barbed wire, still I confess
Darkness bends my name but I learn how to say it soft
I put new lines on the beat; I put old ghosts up aloft
This is brittle hope, this is a quiet, raw refrain
I fold my losses small and stash 'em in my vein
[Chorus — Final]
Night takes my name — night takes my name (short, punch)
Night knows my pain — drill in my veins
Night takes my name — night takes my name (call)
Breath on the rail, I'm prayin' to rain
[Outro]
Sparse piano, sliding 808s, hi-hat ticks like a clock (yeah)
Leave space for ad-libs, vocal tags, one last knock
Cracked streetlamp, I walk on — night keeps my name
Sad drill story, city hymn, I'm not the same (ha)
[Production notes — for performer]
Sparse piano/organ stabs; sliding 808s; syncopated hi-hats; leave space for ad-libs and a vocal tag after each chorus.
