Spent the night at my homie’s place, the sky was clear
City lights calling, we had no fear
Slipped out quiet, the streets alive
The night was ours, where dreams survive
The world was tough, but we didn’t break
Held each other up, no time to fake
Every step, every laugh, every risky plan
Made us brothers, hand in hand
Under the glow of the streetlight haze
We found our truth in the city maze
No map, no guide, just hearts ablaze
The nights were wild, the best of days
Late-night pizza at my homie’s place
Sharing stories, smiles on every face
We drove through the fog, arcade lights ahead
Living the moment, nothing unsaid
From every turn to every ride
We had each other, our worlds collide
Through the chaos, we’d stake our claim
In the city’s fire, we’d play the game
The rhythm of tires on broken streets
Laughter and music where our hearts meet
No riches, no fame, just a simple creed
The life we shared was all we’d need
The fights we fought, the tears we’d hide
Every scar was proof of the times we tried
The city could burn, but we’d remain
Brothers in the storm, through joy and pain
The rooftop view, the moon so bright
A quiet moment in the city’s fight
We talked ‘til dawn, dreams in our heads
Words unspoken but deeply said
(Pre-Chorus)
The stars would fade, but not our bond
A kind of love that would live beyond
Every memory carved in stone
With my homies, I was never alone
Under the stars, where the silence grew
We found the strength to start anew
No road too dark, no night too long
Together we’d rise, together we’d belong
The streets are quieter now, but the echoes stay
In every corner, they guide my way
The rhythm we built, the lives we led
A bond eternal, never dead

Artist Profile
KSK
Never Late to Rock Hello! I am a Japanese rocker raised in San Francisco. At 13, I picked up the guitar and dreamed of a career in music. By 21, that dream felt out of reach, so I stepped away and became a businessman. Later, I founded my own IT company, and now at 41, the fire of rock that has been dormant inside me has reignited. Today, I am blending human creativity with AI to deliver the ultimate rock experience. Follow me as I embark on this journey!
