[Intro] Don’t hit snooze on this one I’m not here to comfort you pretty I’m here to name the thing You’ve been stepping over every morning [Verse 1] There’s a soft alarm under your ribs Not loud enough for company Loud enough that coffee can’t drown it You stir sugar like it’s a peace treaty Smile at the barista like the night didn’t win I know that smile — I invented a few The body keeps a second clock For truths the mouth refuses to punch in [Pre-Chorus] If healing was a product it’d be sold out If honesty was easy we’d all be rich You don’t need another guru You need to stop abandoning yourself mid-sentence [Chorus] Listen to the soft alarm Before it learns to scream The life you keep postponing Is already leaving the dream Listen to the soft alarm It ain’t drama, it’s data Your soul sending low battery While you act like you’re fine forever [Verse 2] Deep concept, cheap motel version: Identity isn’t who you post It’s who you become when nobody’s grading You left yourself on read in a grocery aisle Choosing cereal like choosing a future Both boxes promising crunch and lasting joy Neither telling you about the quiet leak Where meaning drips out between shifts [Verse 2b — talk-rap] Ay — fourth wall, real quick — You’re not “just listening” You’re catching yourself in 4K If this chorus feels personal, good That means the lock picked you I ain’t your dad, I ain’t your coach I’m the ugly mirror with a borrowed throat Hell — one swear for the ones still pretending Sleep is a plan and pain is just weather [Pre-Chorus] If courage is a muscle, stretch it ugly If love is a practice, start with the you in the way No halo required Just stop ghosting your own life [Chorus] Listen to the soft alarm Before it learns to scream The life you keep postponing Is already leaving the dream Listen to the soft alarm It ain’t drama, it’s data Your soul sending low battery While you act like you’re fine forever [Bridge] Stoodstrong looks like making the bed After a night you barely survived The Arcane Verse is the sentence you finally say out loud In a parked car with the engine off telephantix — random mercy in the noise A stranger song that refuses to lie nice The map is not the ground — So stop decorating the map And move your damn feet (That’s two — counted) [Breakdown] Name one thing you’ve delayed out of fear Say it into the cabin of this track Then do one inch of it today Not the speech The inch [Final Chorus] Listen to the soft alarm Get up while it’s still kind The scream version costs more And it always collects on time Listen to the soft alarm Battery low, still alive You don’t need perfect morning light — You need to stop mid-suicide-by-shrug And choose [Outro] Alarm soft Eyes open Phone face-up for once Go
