Chase The Horizon

Intro (Heavy breath over rising drums) Yeah… still runnin’… can’t slow down… That light out there—yeah, I see it somehow… (Drums hit harder) Can’t stop now… can’t stop now… --- Verse 1 My feet hit fire but I keep movin’ on, The world too loud, but I stay in my song. Heartbeat poundin’ like a war inside, Hope and fear runnin’ side by side. Sweat in my eyes, pain in my grin, Tryna outlast the storm I’m in. The sky keeps changin’, the ground don’t wait, If I slow down, it’s too late. --- Pre-Chorus Every breath feel borrowed, But I’m still here tomorrow. Ain’t no map to what I’m chasin’, Just faith and fire blazin’. --- Chorus Got my past and I’m reminded, Can’t look forward from behind it. I see the light but I can’t find it, But I’ll stilllll chase the— Chase the, chase the, chase the horizon. (Echoed “Horizon, horizon…”) Can’t stop, can’t stop, can’t stop— I’ll chase the, chase the, chase the horizon. *(Ad-libs: “I’m gaspin’, I’m reachin’, I’m still breathin’…”) --- Instrumental Break (with Vocal Breath FX) (Percussion swells; faint gasps and ad-libs layer in—“Keep goin’, keep goin’, gotta get there, yeah…”) --- Verse 2 These wounds still open, but I wear ‘em proud, They tell my story, scream out loud. Every fall just built my climb, Every tear rewrote my line. The road is cruel but I still believe, There’s somethin’ out there waitin’ for me. Can’t see the end but I feel the pull, I’m half broke, half beautiful. --- Pre-Chorus Can’t stop when my soul’s still burnin’, Faith the only thing I’m earnin’. Every bruise just lights my flame, Every loss still calls my name. --- Bridge (Soft background hum: “oh-oh-oh, horizon, horizon…”) Ohhh, I’m breathin’ through the thunder, Each step draggin’ me under. If I fall, I’ll rise again, Pain’s my proof, and love’s my friend. (Falsetto rise) Chasin’ what can’t be caught, But it’s all I got— The horizon call my name… won’t stop. --- Final Chorus / Outro Got my past and I’m reminded, Can’t look forward from behind it. I see the light but I can’t find it, But I’ll stilllll chase the— Chase the, chase the, chase the horizon. *(Ad-libs overlapping: “keep breathin’, keep tryin’, keep risin’…”) Horizon… horizon… Even if it breaks me, I’m still flyin’. (Last vocal run, breath fading out) “Horizonnnnn~” (Echo of drums and wind fade as heartbeat percussion slows to silence.)
