[Verse 1: Adam] I learned the city’s gates by name, And which ones opened when I smiled. They call me gifted, call me sure; I call it knowing how to climb. [Verse 2: Lilith] I kept my hands inside my sleeves, The first time you turned toward my face. You spoke as if the world agreed, And I mistook your ease for grace. [Pre-Chorus: Lilith] You seemed so certain where to stand; I liked the way you named the truth. [Chorus: Duet] You choose my mind; I choose your name, Two young hearts meeting in the frame. You see a door; I see a guide, We lean together, side by side. But what we want is not the same— Say it softly, say my name. [Verse 3: Adam] Your mother holds the deeper keys, Aumara, source beneath the scheme. If I can stand beside her child, The highest circles may know me. [Verse 4: Lilith] I thought you liked my questions best, The little truths I barely said. I offered you my honest heart; You counted every rung ahead. [Pre-Chorus: Adam and Lilith] [Adam] I call it fate, I call it choice. [Lilith] I hear the hunger in your voice. [Chorus: Duet] You choose my mind; I choose your name, Two young hearts meeting in the frame. You see a door; I see a guide, We lean together, side by side. But what we want is not the same— Say it softly, say my name. [Bridge: Aumara] Know discernment. Seek just action. Do not trade the whole for gain. Short sight narrows every kingdom; Step too far, and you may fall. [Outro: Lilith and Adam] [Lilith] I wanted truth beneath your certainty. [Adam] I wanted more than I confessed. [Duet] The first small choice can shape a world; The heart will tell what comes next.
