walker and wylde - bottle street (feat. arya nasr) lyrics

[verse 1]
my eyes could not believe
what stood there in front of me
the shopping cart sultans are kings of bottle street
old zeus was on his knees
when the sky split open
i could hear him laugh beneath the thunder barely coping
cause he always said the winter’d never last

[chorus]
a beacon shining, hope for more than
a brief respite, just a moment
we all wondered ‘could it last’ then
i saw by+law roll through heaven

[verse 2]
my heart beneath their feet and
our tarps around our necks while
their shoulders square and proud while
their eyes had no regrets
they rolled like pack rat black cats
collecting death in trash bags
all of our friends’ belongings
into the truck bed like a coffin
squares of trampled grass was all they left
[chorus]
a beacon shining, hope for more than
a brief respite, just a moment
we all wondered ‘could it last’ then
i saw by+law roll through heaven

[bridge]
where do you go from the zero mile
over the bend and away for a while
never forget that francophone smile
from the winter like summer when the poor felt rich
what do you mean that it ain’t our home?
take our tents, our tarps, our hope
make up signs so the tourists know
there ain’t no bums in the park no more

[chorus]
a beacon shining, hope for more than
a brief respite, just a moment
we all wondered ‘could it last’ then
i saw by+law roll through heaven

[outro]
you can’t kick us out of heaven
i know you’ll try
you can’t kick us out of heaven
or else we’ll die
you can’t kick us out of heaven
i know you’ll try
you can’t kick us out of heaven
or else we’ll die
