Niklas Carson – Chicago lyrics

I wanna see the world, from a different view
Been a lot of places, but I always knew.
There are times that feel alone. There are times that feel at home.
But all I know for certain, is my heart will roam.

Chicago the city of centuries
The future is blessed with it's memories.
Chicago with burning desire
You changed me and shaped me through fire
Hold on, the sun will rise at dawn.
Be strong, it won’t be gone for long.

Gazing from above like birds of prey I love
My city’s pride and joy. It’s the soul of Illinois.
Once gilded now it's gold, with time it all unfolds.
The best is yet to shimmer, it's what the future holds.

Chicago the city of centuries
The future is blessed with it's memories.
Chicago with burning desire
You changed me and shaped me through fire
Hold on, the sun will rise at dawn.
Be strong, it won’t be gone for long.

So I guess that it’s been a ride, right?
Just growin’ up, eighteen years of my life
Lookin’ back in hindsight,
I done been through the fire and ice,
I done went through the longs nights,
But I held on
Sure enough, the sun rose at dawn,
And my flurried thoughts, that were frozen thawed,
So I’m finally back, I’ve come to show you all,
With Niklas Carson,
We could get away with arson,
Cause we’re makin’ flames as artist’s…
Yeah you might of felt like a Martian, In Oak Park when you was startin’,
But I swear to god that you wasn’t a martian,
You was more a star in a town of darkness,
So pardon me, if it was hard to see.
But on the behalf of Nick, Chris, Charles and me,
We wanna tell you Nick, you’s the homie son.
Las and all, you fu*kin’ know we love you…
And when I was feeling pretty awful, you took me mini golfin’,
I owe you one…
So as I’m writing this song, even though that you're gone,
The wind blows a rush…
This one’s for the windy city,
I consider it the home of both of us,
CHICAGO.

Chicago the city of centuries
The future is blessed with it's memories.
Chicago with burning desire
You changed me and shaped me through fire
Hold on, the sun will rise at dawn.
Be strong, it wont be gone for long.
