Sky Shadow

[Verse 1]
I’m Shadow, sky-born—raised where the alleyways breathe
A star in the dark with a name to believe
Black shades on my face, whole world in a haze
Smoke over my head, but a comet burns awake
They called me too young; time taught me to climb
Quiet in the shadows, getting bigger with time

[Chorus]
Shadow, the sky-shadow, from the streets to the stars
If the whole world stands against me, it won’t break who we are
The dark can’t kill a shadow, my name won’t disappear
The road is long—I’m still at the beginning here

[Verse 2]
White Nile roots—no price could make them leave
Kush in my blood, old stories I keep
Chain on my chest, but my will weighs more
I’ve fallen, stood taller, kept reaching for more
From Cairo to Khartoum, one step at a time
No likes, no borrowed applause—let the work sign my name

[Bridge]
I didn’t come to copy; I came to write my part
Close a thousand doors—I’ll break the fear apart
They say “impossible”; I say, “Watch me begin”
Even lost in the dark, I can see where I’m headed

[Outro]
Shadow, sky-shadow—step by step, I rise
The story isn’t over; the beginning’s mine
