sig figs collective - survive in the city lyrics
sometimes i catch myself
staring at the pictures on the wall
i see where i got
the wrinkle in my brow
my mom stares back at me
from inside her frame
turns out she hasn’t always been
this age
i know i’m not the best
person i can be
turns out that doesn’t
apply to only me
i’m learning i come from
a legacy of people who were
stronger than i could believe
and i see my mom was once
like me, a kid just tryna figure
out how to survive
in the city
we’re all our own cities
the more things change
the more i recognize my face
i’m growing into something new
in this old place
i’m decorating my home
with memories and dreams of what could be
but behind them standing strong as ever
is the wallpaper my grandma chose in 63
i’m learning i come from
a legacy of people who were
stronger than i could believe
and i see my mom was once
like me, a kid just tryna figure
out how to survive
in the city
we’re all our own cities
i’m not just waiting
to watch the world pass me by
but through all the changing
i’ll make them see our lives
my mom stares back at me
from inside my mind
as stern and warm as ever
she whispers we’ll be fine
i’m learning i come from
a legacy of people who were
stronger than i could believe
and i see my mom was once
like me, a kid just tryna figure
out how to survive
in the city
we’re all our own cities
