On Locked

Songtekst

[Intro] We got this on locked (Yeah, on locked) Puerta cerrada, corazón en guardia 心不慌，往前走 We got this on locked [Verse 1] Block by the market, rain on the awning He said, "Keep moving," I kept on calling Mama in the kitchen with the radio low Said, "Ningún miedo," let the whole world know I heard the sticks on the conga skin Footsteps close, but I let them in Not for the crown, just to keep my own Ain't no feast here, but the bones got tone 她看着我，像看着火 "你别回头" — I said, "I won't" Old blue note in my throat stayed mean Young love dripped from the alley seam [Verse 2] Sister in the doorway, gold chain thin "¿Qué pasó?" — "Nada, pero vamos bien" Two-tone shadow in the stairwell smoke Raspy laugh with a cracked-up joke He sold bad weather, I sold time She sold truth with a crooked rhyme Then the bass hit like a ship on stone Deep in my chest, I felt it home 他说 "跟上" with a hand in the air I said "I'm there," and she said "我在这儿" We crossed that line where the brass got wild Sweet in the hurt, like a warning smile [Bridge] Then the room went slow, all smoke and chrome High voice rose like a prayer from bone (Oh, take me there) (带我回家) The flute came back with a mourning cry And the floor shook hard when the sub rolled by She sang, "Mira," he sang, "Listen close" Chinese sparks in the dark like ghosts We held that minute till it broke Then came the flood with the final note [Verse 3] By dawn, the street had a brand-new face Same old hurt, but a different pace I wore my scars like a tailored suit She wore her grin like a sharpened truth "¿Lo ves?" she said, "we don't fold" "看到了" — "sí," and the story got told From the church bells to the backroom drums Everybody knew where the storm comes from Not rich, not clean, but we stand here tall With the whole damn night in a one-word call We got this on locked, and the door stays shut Still, the world keeps singing what we built from dust
