Life's flicker slow, the city don't sleep Dreams feel heavy, but the grind cuts deep
Voices in the wind where secrets keep Windy city blues and the tears I weep
I'm posted on the corner where the stories unfold Brick by brick, the city's so cold
Hustle for the paper, but I'm chasing my soul Windy city blues, it's a heavy toll
Windy city blues, under skies so gray Tryna find the light, but it fades away
Windy city blues, every night we pray Holding to the hope of a brighter day
Mama said, baby, don't you lose your heart But the streets pull hard, they tear you apart
I sing to the night just to make my mark Windy city blues, I'm a flame in the dark
I see the pain in her eyes, but she keeps her stride Strength in her voice, though the fear's inside
The city's a beast, but we still collide Windy city blues, we learn to survive
Windy city blues, under skies so gray Tryna find the light, but it fades away
Windy city blues, every night we pray Holding to the hope of a brighter day
The wind carries dreams through the midnight haze Songs of the struggle, stories of the days
Windy city blues and the fire we blaze We're still here, still standing in a world that sways
Windy city blues, trilling stars rising as the sky
Windy city blues
Windy city blues
Windy city blues
Thank you.
