Lanterns in Green

[Verse - spoken word - low male vocal]
I step through the lantern light, shadows twist in the dark
New green leaves whisper secrets, summer's pulse in the park
Smoke curls where the fireflies dance, the night's a tight embrace
Streetlights flicker like a heartbeat, concrete dreams in the chase
Walls breathe with the city hum, the pulse of the urban beat
Footsteps echo where the ghosts meet, the rhythm in my feet
[Chorus - low male vocal]
Lanterns in green, summer's breath
New leaves on the tree, the night is deep
Fireflies glow like a whispered myth
Lanterns in green, I'm in the thick
