HOPE

[Intro – Soft pad, light rhythm pulse] (It’s quiet now) (It’s quiet now) ⸻ [Verse 1] I can feel it when I step I can feel it in my bones There’s a beauty in the depth Of not needing to control For too long I couldn’t smile Like I was bracing for the fall Now I’ve found a place inside That doesn’t feel small Never lonely — just alone And that’s something I can hold ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] I see tomorrow as a chance Not a threat I have to fight If I can stand here in the now Then I’m already alright ⸻ [Chorus] Hope (Hope) Hope (Hope) I’m in a state of mind Where I don’t have to hide There’s peace inside my chest I can finally let it rest Hope (Hope) Hope (Hope) I’m home In the unknown Hope (Hope) Hope (Hope) ⸻ [Verse 2 – Slight lift in groove] I used to chase the perfect line Trying hard to get it right Measured worth in every eye That never saw my light But silence taught me how to hear The voice I’d pushed aside It wasn’t gone — it waited there Patient through the tide Now I move without the fear Of who I’m meant to be ⸻ [Pre-Chorus 2 – Wider pad] I don’t need to see the end To believe I’ll be okay Every step I take in faith Is building strength each day ⸻ [Chorus] Hope (Hope) Hope (Hope) I’m in a state of mind Where I don’t have to hide There’s peace inside my chest I can finally let it rest Hope (Hope) Hope (Hope) I’m home In the unknown Hope (Hope) Hope (Hope) ⸻ [Bridge – Strip back (just pad + bass pulse)] I don’t need permission now I don’t need applause I don’t need to fight myself Or search for hidden flaws I was never far from here I was learning how to see What I thought was missing in my life Was already in me ⸻ [Final Chorus] Hope (Hope) Hope (Hope) I’m in a state of mind Where I don’t have to hide There’s peace inside my chest I can finally let it rest Hope (Hope) Hope (Hope) I’m home In the unknown Hope (Hope) Hope (Hope) ⸻ [Outro – Light percussion fading] (It’s quiet now) (It’s quiet now) I’m home.
