Keystone Verse

[Verse 1]
Four AM, the city's breath, a whisper on the pane,
Then the whole damn wall found its rhythm, washing out the rain.
My pen a plumb line, words like mortar, built a sound so deep,
Heard the echoes of the elders, secrets that their stories keep.
A keystone verse, settled perfect, silencing the doubt,
Little Havana's heart now drumming, letting all the music out.

[Chorus]
This is the sound, new blocks rise, yeah, new blocks rise,
From Havana nights, to morning skies, through my bloodline's eyes.
Yeah, the framework's strong, the vision's clear,
No more cracks in the plaster, no more silent fear.

[Verse 2]
Felt the weight of generations, like a load-bearing beam,
Every syllable a promise, chasing down a vibrant dream.
Remember Abuelo's hands, worn smooth, like polished wood,
Building a life with patience, misunderstood, then understood.
Now my own hands craft these verses, from the roots that hold me true,
Planting new branches, strong and tall, for me and for my crew.

[Bridge]
They see the surface shine, but miss the grind, the scaffolding,
This triumph ain't just mine, it's for the soil where my spirit springs.
From concrete dreams to this pure sound, a future taking hold,
A story whispered through the streets, now ready to unfold.

[Outro]
Yeah, new blocks rise, Little Havana strong.
