[Intro — soft, grounded] Morning again Same spinning world Still breathing [Verse 1] Alarm cuts through like a blade in the quiet Floor cold under unready feet Coffee tastes like survival, not comfort Another small promise to keep Faces all moving with parallel gravity Each with a weight they don’t show Traffic like blood through a restless city Everyone somewhere to go Nobody claps when the day gets handled Nobody crowns “functional” kings Just hold it together till quitting time comes Like endurance is nothing but air [Pre-Chorus] But I know what it takes Just to stand, just to stay Every hour survived Is a line we redraw [Chorus — hopeful, steady] If it bends, we don’t shatter If it breaks, we repair Every step forward counts Even going nowhere I don’t have to be perfect I don’t have to be seen I just have to keep moving Till I outrun the machine [Verse 2] Phones lighting up with a thousand demands Deadlines breeding like storms Someone’s shouting, someone’s apologizing Someone’s just barely warm Paychecks stretched like thin winter daylight Bills like a tide on the shore Still we keep showing up, showing up, showing up Like we’ve done it before [Pre-Chorus] Maybe nobody cheers Maybe nobody knows But the whole world would stall If the quiet ones froze [Chorus] If it bends, we don’t shatter If it’s lost, we remake Every small act of staying Is a refusal to break I don’t need recognition I don’t need to be crowned Just a reason to believe I’m not stuck — I’m wound [Bridge — lift, reflective] Nothing here lasts forever Not the grind, not the ache Not the nights that feel endless Not the weight that we take Even steel gives way Even storms burn thin If a day can restart Maybe so can we again [Break — quiet] Not finished Not done Still here [Final Chorus — biggest, warm] If it bends, we don’t shatter If it falls, we rebuild Every breath is a vote That the future’s not sealed I don’t have to be shining I don’t have to be strong I just have to keep going Till I find where I belong [Outro — calm, fading] Morning again Same spinning world Still breathing Still in motion
