canaries in a coal mine Lyrics by Omari Night

2025

We’re climbing up, canaries in the dark
\nBreathing deep the air, that’s pulling us apart
\n
\nOh, they call it freedom, but we’re tethered to the chains
\nBuilding castles for a system, that forgets our name
\n
\nLost so many, but i keep on moving fast
\nSame thing that my brothers do to cope with that
\n
\nPain in my rear view, but i cannot look back
\nCross borders for a lover, ‘cause the world don’t wanna trust us —
\n
\nAgain and again, when can I win?
\nCarry the weight, but i’m never breaking, no
\nSee my loved ones fade away, going on another day
\n
\nIf i could turn the tide and bring you back, i’d pull up right away
\n
\nThe world keeps spinning fast—
\nSometimes i get caught up in yеsterday
\n
\nHandle me with carе
\nAll this weight can make a person break
\n
\nWe’re climbing up, canaries in the dark
\nBreathing deep the air, that’s pulling us apart
\n
\nOh, they call it freedom, but we’re tethered to the chains
\nBuilding castles for a system, that forgets our name
\n
\nWalking blindfolded, tryna trust a gift
\nBut the pressure weighing heavy i can’t let it drift
\n
\nI feel my life moving, but i’m stuck in real time
\nSuffocate when i’m in silence, that’s a real crime
\n
\nI speak the unspoken, can’t deny my truth
\nEyes on a clock, so they miss the whole view
\n
\nPaper dreams on fire, smoke in every room
\nPaycheck for survival while the hours, they consume
\n
\nTrade soul for exposure, hustle every breath
\nSell art for exposure to drown in this modern debt
\n
\nI’m pressed, i'm stressed
\n
\nWe’re climbing up, canaries in the dark
\nBreathing deep the air, that’s pulling us apart
\n
\nOh, they call it freedom, but we’re tethered to the chains
\nBuilding castles for a system, that forgets our name\n\n
