Red Soil on the Laces

Lời bài hát

[Intro] Red soil on the laces, rain on the tin No map in my pocket, still know where I’ve been [Verse 1] From the ridge to the market, I move with a plan Palm leaves shake when I raise my hand Small boat rocking where the black tide bends I count my people, I don’t count pretend Phone on two percent, but the message went through Whole crew knows what the next step do Mud on the wheel and a cut on the palm Pressure came close, I answered calm [Pre-Chorus] Half speed, full weight, don’t rush that stride One word, one look, keep the truth inside [Chorus] We come from the rain where the red earth stains Still stand tall when the whole road shakes Half of the world but the heart beats wide Papua in the chest, no place to hide [Verse 2] Canoe by the creek and the drums from the yard Hard days made the soft parts guard Grandma said, “Hold what the elders gave” So I carry that fire, I don’t need a stage No borrowed crown, no borrowed tone Built this route from a rusted phone If they want proof, let the footsteps speak Seven days strong, never seven days weak [Bridge] When the rain comes down, we don’t fold When the night runs long, we hold Names in the dust, names in the grain We rise with the tide, return with the rain [Chorus] We come from the rain where the red earth stains Still stand tall when the whole road shakes Half of the world but the heart beats wide Papua in the chest, no place to hide [Outro] Red soil on the laces, rain on the tin No map in my pocket, still know where I’ve been
