Gritty Love in the City

[Verse] Maria saw Toni on the block, sparks fly, no doves Graffiti hearts, love painted in the grub City noise, they vibin', urban serenade Concrete jungle their kingdom, no masquerade [Verse 2] Toni sling words, lines sharp, edge of a blade Maria’s laugh hits notes, symphony played Holdin' hands through alleyways, murals in the night Heartbeats sync, bass drums, ain’t no fright [Chorus] Love like ours, in the city they call concrete Thick with the hustle, deep with the beat Hearts etched in bricks, stories unfold Maria and Toni, city love in gold [Verse 3] Maria’s eyes glow, moonlight through the smog Toni’s swagger in stride, cuttin' like a log No luxury rides, just the subway's hum Whisperin’ dreams, never numb [Verse 4] Late nights, rooftops, skyline in sight Stars hidden but love shines bright Hopes taped together, collage on the wall Through the grime, they rise, never fall [Bridge] Echoes of laughter through city lanes Promises whispered, no love in vain Clutched hands in the dark, light at heart Together they stand, never apart
