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
Ooh As the city burns
Ooh As the city burns
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
Ooh As the city burns
Ooh As the city burns
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
Oh 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
Ooh As the city burns
Ooh
Burns away
Burns away
