The Ritualist

V5.5

[Verse 1] First light through the window Kettle starting low Bare feet on the floorboards Taking it slow Playlist in the background Favourite cup in hand Nothing loud or flashy Just the day, well planned Not rushing to outrun it Not filling every space Just bringing a little order Back into the place A shirt laid on the chair back A breath before the door Funny how the smallest things Can steady something more [Pre-Chorus] Slow down Tune in Let the day Begin again One breath One beat One good thing Underneath [Chorus] Come back to the rhythm Make a moment of it First light, bare feet Set the tone and live it A little more care A little less drift Come back to the rhythm Make a moment of it Come back to the rhythm Let the ordinary hold you Good coffee, low music Let the small things show you A little more here A little more in it Come back to the rhythm Make a moment of it [Verse 2] There’s a kind of comfort In getting ready right In making space for meaning At the edges of the light Not because it’s fancy Not because it’s deep Because the days feel different When the details get to speak A chair by the window A song you always choose The quiet kind of ritual That pulls you back to you When everything gets noisy When everything goes fast These little anchors hold you Till the sharpness starts to pass [Pre-Chorus] Come home Not far Just enough To know where you are One pause One place A little more Of your own pace [Chorus] Come back to the rhythm Make a moment of it First light, bare feet Set the tone and live it A little more care A little less drift Come back to the rhythm Make a moment of it Come back to the rhythm Let the ordinary hold you Good coffee, low music Let the small things show you A little more here A little more in it Come back to the rhythm Make a moment of it [Post-Chorus] Set the tone Hold it there Let the quiet Clear the air One small choice Can still shift it Come back to the rhythm Make a moment of it [Verse 3] Not every kind of magic Looks big when it arrives Sometimes it’s just the way You choose to hold your life A clean bench in the morning A song before you leave A little thread of steadiness Running through the week And when the world gets jagged And urgency gets loud You don’t need some grand reset To step back from the crowd Just one thing done with meaning One thing done with care That’s how the ordinary day Starts feeling like it’s yours again [Bridge] Low song Warm cup First light Wake up Good start Deep breath Right here No rush [Breakdown] More rhythm Less spin More presence Begin More grounding No gimmick Make a moment And live it [Final Chorus] Come back to the rhythm Make a moment of it First light, bare feet Set the tone and live it A little more care A little less drift Come back to the rhythm Make a moment of it Come back to the rhythm Let the ordinary hold you Good coffee, low music Let the small things show you A little more here A little more in it Come back to the rhythm Make a moment of it [Outro] First light Bare feet Low song Heartbeat Come back to the rhythm Make a moment of it
