[Intro] [clean electric guitar with tremolo, atmospheric synth pads] There's a place Between memory and forever [vocal chops, record scratch] [Verse 1] [male rap vocals, sub-bass and trap drums enter] I've been there Not every sunrise feels borrowed Madhouse, Madhouse opens the door My body carries questions that no language ever framed Yet my spirit keeps remembering a voice that knew my name I crossed the river made of silence where time forgot to breathe The light wasn't just before me, it was alive inside of me No clocks, no shadows, no measure of the years Only peace that held me closer than I've ever felt down here Ever since I opened my eyes, the world feels like an echo Every heartbeat sounds familiar like I'm walking back toward home [Chorus] [female soprano vocals, full band with piano accents] I stepped into eternity Where morning has no end A light beyond all sunlight called me like a lifelong friend Love spoke louder than forever Every wound became undone I wanted to stay there always But heaven whispers: "Not yet, son" [Verse 2] [male rap vocals, driving trap beat] Now I'm living in the hallway between the dust and dawn Learning every borrowed breath is another sacred song Now I lean into my prayers like the doors that never closed Every whisper climbs the silence where only heaven knows I'm learning how to carry hope with open empty hands Faith isn't seeing every answer, it's trusting every plan The people that I love are gifts I cannot own We're all just passing through this house on our way back home Fear fell off my shoulders like a coat I never needed Death stopped looking like an ending, it became another season Longing lives beneath my heartbeat pointing where I started from Every road bends to the author, every river to the sun [Chorus] [female soprano vocals] I stepped into eternity Where morning has no end A light beyond all sunlight called me like a lifelong friend Love spoke louder than forever Every wound became undone I wanted to stay there always But heaven whispers: "Not yet, son" [Bridge] [male rap vocals, half-time feel] So I'll walk this borrowed hallway Until my work is done Every breath another blessing Every sunset one step home [female vocals join] I'm not afraid of the crossing I've already felt that shore I'm just learning how to live Until heaven opens the door [Outro] [vocal chops, fading synth pads] Madhouse, Madhouse music, music, music [electric guitar fades out]
