[Intro]
(Vinyl crackle — warm, dusty)
(Slow heavy drum beat — Boom… … Kah…)
(Deep expressive bassline — smooth slides, playful groove)
Slow it down…
Let it breathe…
Listen to the bass…
(Mmm… deeper…)
[Verse 1]
[Vocal Style: Laid-back, soulful, confident, slightly raspy]
You're not my enemy
never my rival
(Backing whisper: Never)
I'm not chasing hype
I catch the moment
(Backing echo: the moment)
They switch their faces
like cheap make-believe
Trying to be someone
but never themselves
(Ad-lib — short, low: Fake)
Running in circles
not seeing the end
Burning their lives
on a show to pretend
So much noise
so much display
Everyone shouts "I exist!"
but who are you anyway
(Backing firm: Who are you)
(short breath)
[Chorus]
[Vocal Style: Smooth neo-soul singing, airy harmonies]
I'm not chasing the lights they're chasing tonight
I stay who I am in the quiet inside
Let the world make noise
let the waves crash through
But the ocean in me
still stays true
(Backing: stay true…)
[Verse 2]
[Vocal Style: Lower tone, deeper, intimate]
Everybody wants volume
I'm looking for peace
(Whisper: shhh)
I don't run in their race
I don't fight their war
Foam on the water
may call itself a wave
But the ocean runs deeper
than noise that they crave
(Backing warm: Deep waters)
They need a pedestal
just to feel tall
My foundation's hidden
but stronger than all
No empty poses
no dusty lines
I see this whole world
with unfiltered eyes
(Backing: No filters)
[Chorus]
[Vocal Style: Smooth neo-soul singing, airy harmonies]
I'm not chasing the lights they're chasing tonight
I stay who I am in the quiet inside
Let the world make noise
let the waves crash through
But the ocean in me
still stays true
(Backing: stay true…)
[Chorus / Bass Break]
(Drums soften — finger snaps, ghost notes)
(Bass solo — groovy, expressive)
(Harmonies: mmm-hmm…)
[Verse 3]
[Vocal Style: Stronger, final, calm authority]
Not everything shining
is silver or gold
(Backing: Shine)
The soul is a diamond
that hides out of sight
History will judge
who was real, who pretended
Who fell from the game
and who never surrendered
(Backing low: Still here)
Truth is as simple
as morning's first breath
No compromise living
inside of its depth
Remember this lesson
before the lights rest
[Chorus]
[Vocal Style: Smooth neo-soul singing, airy harmonies]
I'm not chasing the lights they're chasing tonight
I stay who I am in the quiet inside
Let the world make noise
let the waves crash through
But the ocean in me
still stays true
(Backing: stay true…)
(Bass Stop — all instruments cut)
[Vocal Style: Spoken word, cold, deliberate]
A fake has a price
(beat pause — silence)
The original
(beat pause — silence)
has none
[Hard Stop]
[End]
