Unbroken Stucco

[Verse 1]
The asphalt whispers secrets where old foundations bleed out,
I gripped that key, a heavy truth, erased all former doubt.
Medellín’s hum, a low G-minor drone, through concrete walls it crept,
Remembering every fractured dream, the silent vows I kept.
From crumbling stucco, peeling paint, a life we barely knew,
To this new edifice, a testament, solid, strong, and true.

[Chorus]
That silent breath when the door swung wide, a canvas clean and new,
No more crumbling facades, just granite ground for me and you.
The city held its breath, I swore, no longer living small,
This ain't just four walls and a roof, it's breaking every fall.

[Verse 2]
Her eyes, a reverie, saw more than rooms, they traced the past,
The shadows of the struggles lived, too deep, too long to cast.
This isn't just a dwelling, this a peace I had to seize,
Every ghost of lack dispersed, finally finding ease.
No shifting foundations now, just quiet, verdant grace,
A sanctuary from the storm, in this sacred, well-earned place.

[Bridge]
The petrichor of fresh-cut air, not sorrow’s humid haze,
A quiet triumph, hard-won peace, through countless dark days.
From a balcony, the city hums, a new horizon glows,
The concrete poetry of life, the resilience that grows.

[Outro]
Unbroken stucco, finally. The silence speaks.
