[0:00–0:12 | INTRO — felt piano, distant strings] I used to think the sky was the ceiling. Then I got older… and learned ceilings are usually beliefs. ⸻ [0:12–0:38 | VERSE 1 — intimate vocal, minimal drums] Earth gave me gravity, people I couldn’t let down. Dreams in a little room, feet still stuck to the ground. Mercury taught me move when the pressure got hot. Venus taught me love ain’t the same as what you want. Mars made me fight without losing who I am. Had to win some wars without blood on my hands. Every mile changed something, every loss left clues. I kept looking at the heavens— like, what else can I do? ⸻ [0:38–0:58 | CHORUS — strings begin opening] I gotta get past Pluto. Past everything I thought I knew. Past the fear, past the limits, past the version of me I grew into. If the dream got farther, then I’m going farther too. I don’t wanna reach Pluto— I wanna get past Pluto. ⸻ [0:58–1:25 | VERSE 2 — drums deepen, violin answers] Jupiter showed me I was bigger than the room. Some dreams scare you when they finally feel true. Saturn got rings like the years around my soul— Childhood. Heartbreak. Fatherhood. Learning control. Every ring still turning, every chapter still mine. I don’t erase what broke me. I just don’t let it drive. Then life got unfamiliar. No map. No guarantee. Sometimes growth looks like losing everything that looked like me. ⸻ [1:25–1:44 | CHORUS — wider, more emotional] I gotta get past Pluto. Past everything I thought I knew. Past the fear, past the limits, past the version of me I grew into. If the dream got farther, then I’m going farther too. I don’t wanna reach Pluto— I wanna get past Pluto. ⸻ [1:44–2:02 | BRIDGE — nearly weightless] Neptune taught me faith when I couldn’t see the shore. Sometimes you only know you’re growing ’cause the old life fits no more. And maybe freedom isn’t having everything you ever dreamed. Maybe freedom is discovering— you can dream beyond the dream. ⸻ [2:02–2:25 | FINAL CHORUS — full symphonic lift] I’m going past Pluto. Past the edge of what I knew. Past every voice that drew a border around what I could do. If there’s more beyond the darkness, then there’s more in me there too. I spent my whole life chasing Pluto— now I’m going past Pluto. Past the fear. Past the scars. Past the life I thought was all. Past the person I had to be… to become who I was called. ⸻ [2:25–2:34 | OUTRO — exposed violin] Pluto wasn’t the dream. It was just… the farthest thing I could see.
