📝 Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Locker room buzzing like a wire in the wall
Name on a card where there was nothing at all
Cleats hit the concrete, breath held tight
First dust rising under hot white light

[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody waits for the door to decide
But the kid steps through with the spark in his stride

[Chorus]
First dust rising, let it fly
One new heartbeat in a five-win sky
Swing like thunder, run like rain
Turn a borrowed number into your own name
First dust rising, room comes alive
Somebody new just taught the night to drive

[Verse 2]
Old bats leaning with their stories and scars
Scoreboard blinking like a row of hard stars
He does not carry yesterday's weight
Just a fast road open and a pitch gone straight

[Pre-Chorus]
A team can forget how the wild thing feels
Till fresh fire bites at the back of its heels

[Chorus]
First dust rising, let it fly
One new heartbeat in a five-win sky
Swing like thunder, run like rain
Turn a borrowed number into your own name
First dust rising, room comes alive
Somebody new just taught the night to drive

[Bridge]
No crown, no statue, no promise carved in stone
Just one clean moment saying you are not alone
Every long season needs a match in the dark
Every tired engine needs a stranger with spark

[Guitar Solo]

[Final Chorus]
First dust rising, let it fly
One new heartbeat in a five-win sky
Swing like thunder, run like rain
Turn a borrowed number into your own name
First dust rising, room comes alive
Somebody new just taught the night to drive

[Outro]
Leave the dust hanging where the floodlights burn
First step forward, whole room turns
