Verse 1 Life lately leaves me breathless My mind keeps pulling me below One keeps piling on the weight The other won’t let go Before the morning even starts I’m already overwhelmed Too many things are happening And nowhere feels quite still Pre-Chorus I keep trying to outrun it Like I’ll find some room somehow But there’s too much in the moment To be anywhere but now Chorus Surrender Take a breath and take a pause Let the moment be the moment Without needing it resolved Surrender I don’t have to push ahead I can let the feeling rise Without believing what it says I don’t have to fix the whole thing I don’t have to make it clear I can breathe inside the chaos And just stay here Verse 2 Some days everything feels louder Every little thing has weight Life keeps coming without warning Faster than I can recalibrate My body carries all of it Before I understand A tightening in my chest A shaking in my hands Pre-Chorus I keep searching for an answer Something solid I can hold But the harder that I reach for it The tighter grows the hold Chorus Surrender Take a breath and take a pause Let the moment be the moment Without needing it resolved Surrender I don’t have to push ahead I can let the feeling rise Without believing what it says I don’t have to fix the whole thing I don’t have to make it clear I can breathe inside the chaos And just stay here Bridge The feeling doesn’t have to leave Before I carry on I don’t have to win against it I don’t have to prove it wrong No argument, no wrestling No forcing it to pass Just one breath, then another No farther than that Final Chorus Surrender Take a breath and take a pause I don’t have to fight the feeling I can let it run its course Surrender To the minute that I’m in Life can still be overwhelming And I can still begin I don’t have to know the ending I don’t have to understand One breath, one pause, one moment Let’s just see what happens [30-second instrumental outro — no vocals, no humming, no ad-libs]
