TITLE: Fly (King of the Field) Intro (soft, a cappella feel) [soft wind breathing] Mmm… Yeah… I been searching my whole life For something I could hold on to Pre-Intro / Opening Verse Quiet nights, early mornings, Just me and the sky Every prayer I been forming Taught me how to try Before the lights, before the crowd, Before they knew my name I was learnin’ how to listen In the silence and the pain [gentle piano swell] Chorus (softer, longer phrasing) A football so flyyyyy when it flies It make me wanna fly… fly… fly… Flyyyyy… Flyyyyy… Eternally mine Always on my mind I let it flyyyyy… That’s why I grind… I grind… [wind gently lifts] Verse 1 Can I commit the rest of my life, Or am I just chasin’ a dream? On the field I’m a king, Faith as a shield, I believe [heartbeat echo] My pads ready for love, Violent taps, extra laps Sacrifice goals and blood, Still I give more than that My soul longs for you, I give my whole—through experience we grew But can I really ever experience you? Inner connection, what’s it like to be one? Something new every time I look towards the Son [wind rush with soft light swell] I’m in the zone, tryna hit the zone, Bring it back home, carry hope Every snap feel personal, Every moment irreversible Chorus A football so flyyyyy when it flies It make me wanna fly… fly… fly… Flyyyyy… Flyyyyy… Eternally mine Always on my mind I let it flyyyyy… That’s why I grind… I grind… [light rain taps in] Verse 2 To truly carry you, I gotta work hard Grip you tight if I wanna go far You fit just right in the palm of my hand, Workouts in sand, growin’ into a man Flyin’ to where I belong, When the opps got you, it feel so wrong Fast I act—quarterback sack, Just to feel you in my arms You safe, no one can harm, No alarms, this my norm Like a superhero causin’ a storm, I adapt, I transform [low thunder roll] Silence out the noise, The perfect choice, the perfect poise Under pressure, I’m still calm, I hear peace in your voice You speak louder than hate, Softer than love I’m holdin’ my grace, My place to be great Tryna win this race with fate Bridge (R&B harmony – revised) [rainfall deepens slightly] Ooooh… Every spiral feels intentional Ooooh… Even pressure makes me whole Final Chorus (full, airy, emotional) A football so flyyyyy when it flies It make me wanna fly… fly… fly… Flyyyyy… Flyyyyy… Eternally mine Always on my mind I let it flyyyyy… That’s why I grind… I grind… [crowd roar rises slowly, not explosive] Outro [wind fades gently] [stadium lights hum]
