[Intro] (bass groove fades in, light drums) (Spoken) Yo... check it. [Verse 1] - low key, almost deadpan Monday to Saturday blend into gray Same coffee stains on the same old tray Screens flashing numbers I barely scan Living life like I'm running sand Coffee cold but I take a sip anyway Another notification, another day The mirror shows someone I don't track Just going through the motions, walking back [Pre-Chorus] - building energy Then the elevator doors unfold— Someone standing there and time goes slow... [Chorus] - FULL ENERGY, bright harmonies And the world just lit up when she smiled at me Static in my chest became electricity All the colors came back into view Something broke inside but it felt brand new Yeah the world switched back on today Just a simple smile took the gray away! (brass stab) Ooooh—switched back on yeah! [Verse 2] - upbeat groove, rap style Look, I was running on minimum power supply Gray clouds in my head, nobody knew even high Or low what the difference made anyway Just a husk of a man on autopilot day to day But then—hold up—suddenly the voltage shifted Somebody's light through all this shit got unfiltered That smile hit my chest like a circuit breaker switched And the whole grid came online, eyes widened quick Now I'm talking about the power of a genuine grin One human moment worth a thousand memes and cinematics in The funk picked me up from where I lost it Put some rhythm back to all that stuff we lost in... [Chorus] - MAX ENERGY And the world just lit up when she smiled at me Static in my chest became electricity All the colors came back into view Something broke inside but it felt brand new Yeah the world switched back on today Just a simple smile took the gray away! Ooooh—switched back on, yeah we're alive tonight! [Bridge] - slower half-time, soulful and reflective We never know another's load they carry in their face But one small gesture can light up empty space She walked past, barely knew my name But gave enough to restart this whole damn game (drum fill) Yeah it did! [Chorus] - DOUBLE TIME ENERGY And the world just lit up when she smiled at me Static in my chest became electricity (electricity!) All the colors came back into view (oh they did!) Something broke inside but it felt brand new Yeah the world switched back on today Just a simple smile took the gray away! [Outro] (groove continues, ad-libs) Switched back on... yeah... That's right... You have no idea what you just did... The colors came back... (bass fades with laugh/chuckles in background) (Fade out on funk groove)
