'Survival' live recording - Kirsty McGee and the Hobopop Collective

Why we movin’ like we’re rivals, love?
In a city made for breathin’ out the cycles, love.
You walk your road, I walk mine too,
Skyline hummin’ over both our truths.
This place never asked us to compete,
Just to steady our rhythm in the passing heat.

Who said joy was somethin’ we compare?
You got storms, I got quiet prayers.
No showin’ up if the heart ain’t there,
Still the city holds us like open air.

City of freedom, babe…
It don’t crown no winner.
We just breathe until the sunset
Makes our edges shimmer.
Ain’t no happier, no sadder,
Just the shape of who we be.
That’s all, baby — that’s all, baby.
This place still loves you,
And it still loves me.

Yeah…
You stuck on the thought of who got more glow,
But glow ain’t a trophy — it’s a river we flow.
We’re mirrors in motion, two halves of the street,
Learnin’ rhythm from the cracks underneath our feet.
Freedom ain’t loud, it don’t shout, it don’t fight,
It whispers your name when you’re losin’ the night.
We ain’t losers, we ain’t winners, just two souls gettin’ thinner
’Til we breathe into the truth that the finish line’s inner.
Last breath — land soft like a quiet release,
Both of us holdin’ our small piece of peace.
City don’t judge what we carry within,
Just asks us to stay, to begin again.

City of freedom, babe…
No scoreboard here.
Only hearts that walk their stories
Till the map feels clear.
Ain’t no happier, no sadder,
Just the way we’re meant to be.
That’s all, baby — that’s all, baby.
This place still loves you…
And it still loves me.

Look…
If we ever lost the map, we’d still be fine,
’Cause the city kept our shadows learnin’ how to align.
We ain’t copies, we ain’t mirrors, we just crossin’ in light,
Two stories in the same wind tryin’ not to fight.
I don’t need you to be stronger, don’t need you to be less —
Just breathe with me once, with a heart unpressed.
Baby, happiness ain’t measured by the sparkle you see,
It’s the peace in your chest when you let yourself be.
And I’m standin’ right here, no pride to defend —
In this city of freedom, I call you my friend.
Yeah, the one who walks forward even when it feels rough,
The one who forgets they’re already enough.

City of freedom, babe…
Won’t you breathe with me?
Let the night hold all our questions
Till the dawn runs free.
Ain’t no happier, no sadder,
Just the way we’re meant to be.
That’s all, baby — that’s all, baby…
This place still loves you
And it still loves me.

City of freedom, babe…
Won’t you breathe with me?
Let the night hold all our questions
Till the dawn runs free.
Ain’t no happier, no sadder,
Just the way we’re meant to be.
That’s all, baby — that’s all, baby…
This place still loves you...

CELENTANO

Quante stelle nel cielo con la luna
sono luci che accendono gli amanti
e più brillanti sono e più penso che
quelle stelle brillano per me e per te.

Amore amore amore a perdifiato
quante volte di notte t'ho sognato
e t'ho cercato amore fino al monte
come assetato cerca la sua fonte.

Quando lo trovavo
come un vento di primavera
sfiorava la mia mano
poi di nuovo lontano era.
Amore amore che inganni
profumi d'aria di maggio
ti tocco, ti credo vero
svanisci come un miraggio.
Amore che viene e che vai
come una cosa leggera...
Ah...non andare via.

Amore amore per te ho messo un fiore
nel mio giardino s'è sparso l'odore
e notte e giorno io l'ho ben curato
e questa volta un fiore non s'è seccato.

E l'ho bagnato con l'acqua di fonte
io l'ho difeso dal vento del monte
e l'ho nutrito a tutte quante l'ore
Amore amore amore amore amore.
