Compose a folk-inspired acoustic ballad in the style of emotionally charged, socially conscious songwriting from the late 1980s and 1990s, Begin with gentle fingerpicked acoustic guitar to create an intimate, contemplative mood, Verses should be long and narrative, with minimal instrumentation—mainly guitar, subtle bass, and light percussion, Use a warm, expressive, slightly husky vocal with clear storytelling, Lyrics should feature vivid imagery and themes like hope, struggle, freedom, resilience, and daily life, Employ irregular rhyme schemes and a conversational tone, Let the arrangement build gradually, adding soft keys or harmonica, but keep voice and guitar central, No traditional chorus; use a recurring lyrical motif at the end of each verse

Intimate folk instrumentation centers on fingerpicked acoustic guitar, gently cradled by warm upright bass, Subtle Christmas bells accent each chorus, evoking festive charm, Vocals remain solo and close-miked, enhancing the cozy atmosphere, Sparse hand percussion adds subtle rhythmic life
