[INTRO] (breath, vinyl noise, scratches, quiet space) [VERSE 1] (8 lines) New year comes, calm and slow, Soft new light begins to glow. I wish for health to stay with us, Day by day, no rush, no fuss. Strong hearts beating nice and steady, Simple lives, awake and ready. Peace at home, clear open skies, Truth reflected in our eyes. [INSTRUMENTAL SPACE] (piano + bass ~16s) [CHORUS] x2 New year wishes, warm and clear, Breathing hope, releasing fear. New year wishes, slow and true, Let the light come breaking through. [VERSE 2] (8 lines) I wish the games played in the dark Lose their power, lose their spark. Growing minds begin to see, What was hidden quietly. No forced storms, no scripted pain, Let false plans fall down in vain. Let the earth stay calm and free, Room to breathe for you and me. [INSTRUMENTAL SPACE] (djembe + muted guitar ~16s) [CHORUS] x2 New year wishes, warm and clear, Breathing hope, releasing fear. New year wishes, slow and true, Let the light come breaking through. [VERSE 3] (8 lines) When old walls finally collapse, Let it happen without cracks. From the dust, new roots will rise, Built with care, not control or lies. Not one throne, not one crown, Just shared ground when dust falls down. Human steps toward the stars, Still remembering who we are. [INSTRUMENTAL SPACE] (bass + distant horn ~16s) [FINAL CHORUS] x2 (choir lift optional) New year wishes, lift us higher, Calm hearts, quiet inner fire. New year wishes, hand in hand, Free to breathe on living land. [OUTRO] (scratches, vinyl fade, silence)
