Ten Feet Tall

Family memory

Ania's confidence anthem — some days you just walk in ten feet tall.

Lyrics

Transcribed from the recording — close to the song, but not always word-perfect.

Zeroes on the screen, a paper trail of ice
Red ink dripping like a heavy cold device
Now your head down, shadows on the wall
Running from the wait, I'm waiting for the fall
Silent halls are whispering, I'm fading in the dark
Leaving all the expectations, nowhere left to spark
But the silence is a lie, I know it in my veins
Tracing back the secret that is burning through the planes
Light under the door, sneaking past the gate
Caught the silhouette, playing with my fate
Keyboard clicking steady, shifting all the lines
Dragging down the glory, hiding all the signs
The truth is blinding, look at what they do
Painting gold to gray, playing with the view
System override, yeah we're calling for the truth
Sirens in the distance, justice for the youth
Caught in the motion, watch the tower fall
Naya on the rise, standing ten feet tall
Straight lines bending, broken laws are clear
No more static, no more hidden fear
Justice is a melody echoing the night
We'll rewrite in the future, turn it on the light
Falsified, denied, you tried to switch the grade
Swapped a hundred for a failure in the shade
Thought I'd disappear, thought I'd run away
Police in the lobby, look at you today
Handcuffed dreams, no room for a lie
Caught in the act, no way to deny
Locked in the game that you tried to play
Naya got the leverage, now I'm on my way
The static clears, the paper's finally white
Everything I earned is shining in the light
Straight A's, yeah, the record's looking clean
Living out the shadows, no more falsified fear
Everything is perfect, everything is clear
Look at the grade, look at the name
Naya is the one who mastered the game
Perfect score, perfect day
We're rising, we're rising up and away
Everything is clear
Everything is clear
