Andra Day - City Burns lyrics

The scent of momentum fills the city air Hear the heart beat, it's alive and draws you in Things will never be the same Thought I'd been here, but never here times before Then the roller coaster dipped and sped along no more But I'm not in the same space. Cuz I'm hardly the woman that I once was Now I search for the ground underneath my feet As the city burns, as the city burns Ooh As the city burns [x3] Burns away Burns away Now it's fancy ladies, pricey wiles, and argyle From homemade beats, selling tee's, and running wild Just hope I don't lose my head And now I'm thinking on a dream that my sister had Back then I was too young to see it wasn't bad So thanks chick, by the way Cuz I'm hardly the woman that I once was Now I search for the ground underneath my feet As the city burns, as the city burns Ooh As the city burns [x3] Burns away Burns away We're at a run right now Before we were at a steady jog And I'm trying to hang on to whatever I can find Because what do you do when it's spinning so fast How do you stand with the world on your back I'm hardly the woman I once was search for the ground underneath my feet As the city burns, as the city burns Ooh As the city burns [x2] Ooh Burns away Burns away
