Be

[Intro] (Instrumental – Clean electric guitar riff with a heavy, walking bassline. Reggae off-beat rhythm. Drums drop in.)

[Verse 1]
I stood at the crossroads, suitcase in my hand
One road looked like heaven, the other like the promised land
Took the one my shadow told me, thought I knew the game
But the pavement turned to quicksand, and the whispers turned to shame
Now the rain is on my shoulders, but the sun is on my face
'Cause every wrong turn taught me a better kind of grace

[Chorus] (Big, anthemic rock swell. Female vocalist belts.)
You just gotta be (oh-oh, just be)
Not the ghost they wanted, not the knot you can't untie
You just gotta be (oh-oh, you'll see)
The thunder and the stillness, the reason and the why
It was in you all along, now sing your simple song
And be (just be, just be)
Yeah, just be

[Verse 2]
I wore a mask of armor, forged by other hands
Climbed a ladder made of splinters just to join their marching bands
Got a call at 3 AM that broke me to the floor
Said the dream you're chasing doesn't want you anymore
That's when the mirror shattered, and I saw a different light
The treasure wasn't out there—it was buried in the fight

[Chorus] (Drums and bass lock in tighter. Backing vocals join.)
You just gotta be (oh-oh, just be)
Not the ghost they wanted, not the knot you can't untie
You just gotta be (oh-oh, you'll see)
The thunder and the stillness, the reason and the why
It was in you all along, now sing your simple song
And be (just be, just be)
Yeah, just be

[Bridge] (Dynamics drop low. Sparse, echoey reggae guitar. Spoken-sung, vulnerable.)
Some truths arrive like a sunrise... gentle.
Some truths arrive like a wrecking ball.
But either way, you're still standing here.
And the only question left... is the one you've always known.
(Softly, then building)
Who are you when the world isn't watching?
(Drums roll in)
Who are you when the noise is gone?

[Guitar Solo] (Melodic, slightly overdriven rock-reggae solo. Not too fast. Soulful.)

[Chorus] (Full power. Female vocalist ad-libs freely over the top.)
You just gotta be (oh-oh, just be—yeah, I said be!)
Not the ghost they wanted, not the knot you can't untie (set it free now)
You just gotta be (oh-oh, you'll see—I promise you'll see)
The thunder and the stillness, the reason and the why (it was you!)
It was in you all along (all along!), now sing your simple song
And be (just be, just be—come on now)
Yeah, just be

[Outro] (Reggae groove slows to a sway. Bass holds a deep note.)
(Spoken-sung, warm and sure)
No more running down a borrowed highway...
No more bending for a crooked line...
(Melody returns, soft)
Just be... (echo: just be)
Just be... (echo: just be)
You already have the key.
(Drum hit. Bass fades. Humming.)
Be...
(End on a single, ringing guitar chord.)
