I Do Not Chase

Intro (soft, composed) If it has to be forced… It was never mine. Verse 1 I used to run toward open flames Thinking love was proved through pain Overextending, overgiving Confusing longing with intuition But I don’t move like that these days I learned what leaves and what remains And anything unsure of me Can keep its distance peacefully Pre-Chorus I stopped mistaking chaos for connection Stopped romanticizing inconsistency And suddenly… I could hear myself think Chorus I do not chase I attract What sees my worth comes toward that I don’t beg I don’t convince I let reality reveal itself If it’s aligned It will stay If not, I let it fade away I don’t force what doesn’t flow I do not chase anymore Verse 2 I can feel when something bends Trying to become what it pretends And I no longer ignore the signs Just because loneliness gets loud at night I choose peace before potential Clarity before accidental And if I have to pull you close Then deep down I already know Pre-Chorus Love shouldn’t feel like constant guessing Or trying to earn basic presence I know the difference now Chorus I do not chase I attract What sees my worth comes toward that I don’t beg I don’t convince I let reality reveal itself If it’s aligned It will stay If not, I let it fade away I don’t force what doesn’t flow I do not chase anymore Bridge (calm authority) The moon doesn’t chase the ocean The tide arrives on its own And I don’t chase what’s meant for me I become… and it comes close Break (minimal instrumentation) No more proving No more pursuit No more abandoning myself Trying to hold onto you Final Chorus (slightly fuller, emotionally elevated) I do not chase I attract What’s real will always answer back I don’t plead I don’t perform I trust what’s steady, clear, and warm If it’s aligned It will stay And if not, I walk away I don’t force what doesn’t flow I do not chase anymore Outro (echoed softly) I do not chase… I do not chase…
