Lyrics

[00:17] The scent of momentum fills the city air
[00:21] Hear the heart beat,it's alive and draws you in
[00:27] Things will never be the same
[00.34] Thought I'd been here,but never here,times before
[00:37] Then the roller coaster dipped and sped along no more
[00:43] But I'm not in the same space'
[00:49] Cause I'm hardly the woman that I once was
[00:53] .
[00:56] Now I search for the ground underneath my feet
[01:05] As the city burns,as the city burns
[01:09] .
[01:13] Ooh
[01:20] As the city burns
[01:26] As the city burns
[01:35] As the city burns
[01:38] Burns away
[01:41] Burns away
[01:44] .
[01:46] Now it's fancy ladies,pricey wiles,and argyle
[01:51] From homenade beats,selling tee's,and running wild
[01:56] Just hope I don't lose my head
[02:03] And now I'm thinking on a dream that my sister had
[02:07] Back then I was too young to see it wansn't bad
[02:12] So thanks chick,buy the way
[02:18] Cause I'm hardly the woman that I once was
[02:23] .
[02:25] Now I search for the ground underneath my feet
[02:34] As the city burns,as the city burns
[02:40] .
[02:42] Ooh
[02:48] As the city burns
[02:56] As the city burns
[03:05] As the city burns
[03:07] Burns away
[03:10] Burns away
[03:14] .
[03:16] We're at a run right now
[03:20] Before we were at a steady jog
[03:24] And I'm trying to hang on to whatever I can find
[03:33] Because what do you do when it's spinning so fast
[03:37] How do you stand with the world on your back
[03:42] I'm hardy the woman I once was
[03:46] .
[03:48] Now I search for the ground underneath my feet
[03:56] As the city burns,as the city burns
[04:01] .
[04:04] Ooh
[04:09] As the city burns
[04:17] As the city burns
[04:29] Burns away
[04:32] Burns away
