Lalé Izi - Stubborn Inheritance Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In this marble hall of expectations
Where dreams get lost in calculations
Papa's voice, like thunder from above
"Be practical, my dear, that's called love"
But the music in my veins won't stop
Even when you tell me it's time to drop

[Pre-Chorus]
Grandmother's lullaby twisted in my head
Electronic whispers from the life I've led
Every corner of this house knows my fight
Every shadow holds the dreams I hide at night

[Chorus]
I'm not your safe dissertation
Not your perfect explanation
There's fire in my creation
Dancing through the generations
Watch me break these golden chains
Let the beats wash off these stains
This is my declaration
My electronic salvation

[Verse 2]
Kadıköy nights feed my rebellion
While you count the ways I'm failing
"Music won't put food upon your plate"
But daddy, watch me orchestrate
My future's not bound by your fears
I've held this secret through the years

[Bridge]
The kanun strings whisper ancient tales
But I'll rewrite them, watch them sail
Through circuits, wires, and digital dreams
I'm more alive than what it seems
Your walls can't hold what I've become
The daughter dancing to her own drum

[Chorus]
I'm not your safe dissertation
Not your perfect explanation
There's fire in my creation
Dancing through the generations
Watch me break these golden chains
Let the beats wash off these stains
This is my declaration
My electronic salvation

[Outro]
Every argument echoes in these halls
But I'm turning them into waterfalls
Of sound, of light, of pure emotion
Drowning in this sonic ocean
Nineteen years of playing safe
Now watch this butterfly escape
