[Instrumental] [Intro] [syncopated clean electric guitar riff, 16th-note hi-hats] (Ooh…) (Yeah…) Turn the lights down low… Let the whole world wait… Tonight, we remember who we are. [Verse 1] I spent too many mornings chasing somebody else’s dream Wearing somebody else’s colors like they belonged to me Every clock was stealing moments, every road was moving fast Trying to hold a future that was never built to last Then I heard a rhythm underneath the noise A little piece of freedom in my own voice I left my worries hanging with the daylight And found the girl I was afraid to be tonight [Pre-Chorus] Leave the world where you found it Leave the pressure at the door The beat knows my real name And I don’t hide anymore No rules… no fear… The reason that I’m here is clear… [Chorus] OFF THE GRID! Where the night remembers who we are Dancing underneath a million stars We don’t need permission to shine OFF THE GRID! Where the heartbeat becomes the sound Where we lose ourselves and find our ground This is what freedom sounds like Hands up… lights down… Let the old world disappear Right now… right here… We were never lost… We were waiting to be found. We’re off the grid. [Verse 2 — Main Theme] [slap bass enters, four-on-the-floor kick drum] [staccato synth chord stabs on off-beats] [snare hits on 2 and 4] Mirror balls are painting diamonds on the ceiling Every color tells a story in the light Everybody glows when they stop pretending Everybody shines when they finally feel alive No more waiting for somebody to choose us No more shrinking just to fit inside We weren’t born to stand behind the curtain We were born to be the reason for the lights [Pre-Chorus] Leave the world where you found it Let the old worries disappear The beat knows my real name And my true self is finally here No masks… no walls… Hear the rhythm when it calls… [Chorus] OFF THE GRID! Where the night remembers who we are Dancing underneath a million stars We don’t need permission to shine OFF THE GRID! Where the heartbeat becomes the sound Where we lose ourselves and find our ground This is what freedom sounds like Hands up… lights down… Let the old world disappear Right now… right here… We were never lost… We were waiting to be found. [Bridge] Mirror-ball reflections making status symbols fade We’re dancing in the masterpiece that confidence made Don’t need an invitation when you’re dripping in the sound We just paralyze the clock and leave the friction on the ground The world tried to name me Tried to tell me who I’d be But the music knew my heartbeat Before I ever knew me Tonight I don’t escape my life Tonight I finally arrive Every broken piece was leading me To the person in the light [Final Chorus] OFF THE GRID! Where the night remembers who we are Dancing underneath a million stars We don’t need permission to shine OFF THE GRID! The beat knows my real name The world will never feel the same This is what freedom sounds like Leave the world where you found it Let your heartbeat run wild tonight Everybody come alive… Everybody touch the sky… OFF THE GRID! [Outro] [synth stabs fade, guitar riff continues solo] [final kick drum hit] The beat knows my real name… The night remembers who we are… We were never lost… We were waiting to be found… (Off the grid.)
