[Intro: vinyl, warm bass, piano, reversed choir] MALE Walked through the dark with a map full of scars, Asked for an answer, got silence from stars. Held to the past till it tightened the chains, Then prayer taught my heart how to loosen the pain. Verse 1 — Male Lost my tracks while I followed the traffic, Chasing a dream till the dream became static. Pride built walls, anxiety guarded them, Smiled for the world while my soul fought within. Thought being strong meant concealing the hurt, Till my knees met the floor, my prayer met the dirt. Searched for the Source through the noise around me, Found that the Light had been living inside me. Nothing you purchase can purchase you peace, Everything enters and everything leaves. Love plants roots underneath what we know, Every broken road can still lead us home. Verse 2 — Female Surrender ain't weakness, surrender is action, Freedom begins when we loosen attachment. Carried tomorrow like weight on my back, Grace whispered softly, “Live where you're at.” People aren't property, moments aren't prizes, We're sparks passing through each other's horizons. Fear is a prison, forgiveness releases, Love turns the fragments of pain into pieces of peace. I stopped asking heaven to follow my plans, Asked for the strength to accept where I stand. Sometimes the doorway appears through a loss, Faith keeps on walking when sight has gone dark. Chorus — Both If everything passes, the Light remains. If everything changes, Love stays the same. When darkness is covering every road, Your hand keeps leading me home. Keep my family safe beneath Your wings, Fill our home with the peace You bring. I searched outside till my spirit could know— The Light I was seeking was here in my soul. Hare Krishna... Hare Krishna... FEMALE My soul goes home... Verse 3 — Trading MALE We're visitors here, every moment is fleeting. FEMALE But kindness survives in the hearts that we're reaching. MALE What's wealth if your children remember your absence? FEMALE What's strength without mercy, or life without compassion? MALE We're borrowing breath; every second's a blessing. FEMALE Even pain can arrive carrying lessons. MALE No throne, no possession can quiet the soul. FEMALE What matters is love when we finally let go. BOTH When evidence fades and the pathway's unclear, We still choose love while we're walking through fear. Bridge [Beat strips down] MALE I don't ask for a kingdom, I don't ask for a throne. FEMALE Give me eyes that can see You so I never walk alone. MALE When the labels disappear— FEMALE When the old fears lose their names— BOTH I am not lost. I am returning home again. Chant [Tribal drums · 808 · choir] BOTH Hare Krishna... Hare Krishna... FEMALE Ah-ah-ah... MALE CHOIR Hare Krishna... Final Chorus BOTH If everything passes, the Light remains! If everything changes, Love stays the same! Through pleasure and pain, through the fire and rain, Your name is the rhythm still running through my veins. Let my home hold warmth through the coldest night, Let my children walk with compassion and Light. When our footprints are gone, let one truth live on: The greatest treasure is the love that we give. Hare Krishna... Hare Krishna... [Choir rises] Outro MALE Leave the love in me... FEMALE Leave the light in me... BOTH When everything passes, the Light remains. Hare Krishna...
