Lyrics
Boots on the concrete, dust in the teeth Rust in the knuckles, blood underneath Streetlight flicker, shadow don’t blink I don’t talk loud — I let it clink Heel hit steel — feel that ring Chain-link swing when the cold wind sings Back-alley sermon with a cracked-out grin If the door don’t open, I’m walking in Boots on the concrete Stomp when I breathe Boots on the concrete Nothing moves me Nothing moves me Gravel grind in the spine of the night Blacktop heartbeat keeping me tight Fist full of quiet, jaw set straight I don’t rush pressure — I let it wait Trip-wire tension, bend but don’t break Ground don’t give — so I don’t shake No neon halo, no borrowed crown Just grit in the throat when it all goes down You hear that echo? That’s not fear. Boots on the concrete Stomp when I breathe Boots on the concrete Nothing moves me Nothing moves me Nothing moves me
