Light Above the Boxes
Style: Indie folk

[Verse 1]
Boxes leaning on the brick
stacked up crooked, stacked up high
something in that broken light
still finds you and makes you shine

[Chorus]
Ibrahim, the room lights up
the second that you walk in
every corner feels less dim
happy birthday, Ibrahim

[Verse 2]
Cardboard corners, worn and soft
hum of neon overhead
none of that could dull the spark
you carry instead

[Pre-chorus]
So let the glass rise to the brim
let every voice come in
we're building up to something

[Chorus]
Ibrahim, the room lights up
the second that you walk in
every corner feels less dim
happy birthday, Ibrahim

[Bridge]
However crooked this year ran
you kept us steady, kept us warm
one more year to hold you close
one more reason we're all here

[Chorus]
Ibrahim, the room lights up
the second that you walk in
every corner feels less dim
happy birthday, Ibrahim

[Outro]
The light still hums against the wall
but nothing here burns dim as you
