Where the Stars Gave Up

No sleep. No saints. Only lights that know your name. Night City... Take me in. Rain comes down on the avenue, Red and blue in the oil-black view. Glass towers cut through a smoky sky, Every screen says, “Buy. Obey. Survive.” Chrome on skin, cold fire in veins, Fast cars scream through the midnight rain. I came here with a borrowed name, One last dream and a heart in flames. The high-rise gods look down below, Counting every life they own. But I can hear the whole grid hum: “Run, little spark - Your time has come.” Night City, light me up! Burn my name where the stars gave up. Let the skyline learn my scars; I will rise through the neon dark. Night City, hear me now! I came from nothing - I won’t bow down. If I fall, let the whole world know: I lived like a legend in the neon glow. Oh-oh, in the neon glow. Oh-oh, let the whole grid know. No sleep, no fear, no letting go. I burn, I burn in the neon glow. Holo-ads grin with perfect teeth, Selling heaven to the streets beneath. Corpo kings in their towers of gold Trade our futures and buy our souls. Down in the alleys, the lost still fight, Wired for hope in the dead of night. Every ghost with a broken plan Makes a fist and takes a stand. The city bites, the city feeds On open wounds and hungry dreams. But every wire beneath my skin Says this is where I now begin. Night City, light me up! Burn my name where the stars gave up. Let the skyline learn my scars; I will rise through the neon dark. Night City, hear me now! I came from nothing - I won’t bow down. If I fall, let the whole world know: I lived like a legend in the neon glow. Oh-oh, in the neon glow. Oh-oh, let the whole grid know. No sleep, no fear, no letting go. I burn, I burn in the neon glow. I know the price. I know the game. A brighter face, A colder name. They own the roads, The air, the rain, But they will never Own my flame. No crown is clean. No legend stays. Still, fire knows Who lit the blaze. Turn every siren up tonight - I came to live before I die. Live - before - I - die. Burn - my - name - in - light. No sleep. No saints. No way back tonight. Night City, light us up! Burn our names where the stars gave up. Let the skyline learn our scars; We will rise through the neon dark. Night City, hear us now! We came from nothing - we won’t bow down. If we fall, let the whole world know: We lived like legends in the neon glow. Night City, light me up! Burn my name where the stars gave up. Let ten thousand windows show There was fire in the streets below. Night City, hear my vow! No one can erase me now. When I fall, let the whole world know: I became a legend in the neon glow. No sleep. No saints. Only lights that know my name. Night City... Remember me.
