WHAT WAS WAITING LOKIWIZZ [VERSE 1] The night don't argue with the dawn, Don't curse the light or cling to gone. It loosens its grip, lets the shadows unwind, Makes room for the things we were too blind to find. Roots grow deep where the daylight fades, Seeds learn patience in the underground shade. You call it lost when you can't see the way, But the dark's been holding what the light couldn't say. [HOOK — HYPNOTIC, CHANT-LIKE] Step aside, let it rise, Let the hidden meet your eyes. No war to win, no debt to pay, The night just makes room for the day. Step aside, let it show, Some things bloom where the cold winds blow. What you thought was gone, what you thought had died— Was waiting in the dark on the other side. [VERSE 2] I chased every answer till my feet hit stone, Tried to force every door that was meant to stay closed. Had a fist full of questions, a head full of noise, Couldn't hear the truth over the sound of my voice. Then the wind through the pines put a pause in the air, Like the world knew a secret but didn't need to share. No trumpet, no thunder, no sign in the sky, Just a shape in the silence I'd passed a thousand times. Maybe wisdom ain't a weapon, maybe strength ain't a fight, Maybe some things find their shape when you quit forcing the light. I quit digging for a meaning buried under every stone— And found the thing I'd been seeking in the space I left alone. [HOOK] Step aside, let it rise, Let the hidden meet your eyes. No war to win, no debt to pay, The night just makes room for the day. Step aside, let it show, Some things bloom where the cold winds blow. What you thought was gone, what you thought had died— Was waiting in the dark on the other side. [BRIDGE — LOW DRONE, STOMPING PERCUSSION] No war between the dusk and dawn, No need to prove which side was wrong. The stars don't vanish when skies turn blue, They wait beyond what you can view. No spell to cast, no lock to break, Some doors swing wide when hands unclench. The truth don't always need a sign— Sometimes it waits for the right kind of quiet. [FINAL HOOK — LAYERED CHANTS] Step aside, let it rise, Let the hidden meet your eyes. No war to win, no debt to pay, The night just makes room for the day. Step aside, let it show, Some things bloom where the cold winds blow. What you thought was gone, what you thought had died— Was waiting in the dark on the other side. [OUTRO — WHISPERED] The night never fought the dawn. It only stepped aside. And the light found what was waiting.
