(Spoken, clear) Stay BRACED — check it every day [Verse 1] Before the noise, before the rush You run the check without a fuss Not in panic, not in fear You make the system always clear Bag is ready by the door Zipped and checked like times before You don’t wait for things to break You build the habit while it’s safe [Pre-Chorus] Six small checks — fast and clean Keep you ready in between [Chorus] BRACED — say it through Know exactly what to do Bag — by the door Route — clear path to the floor Alerts — phone is on Cover — shelters you rely on Essentials — ready, not expired Dependents — safe and all accounted for Stay BRACED — every day So you don’t think — you just act your way [Verse 2] Hallway clear and door unlocks You can move without a stop Phone is charged, alerts will sound Correct zone set for where you’re found Three shelters that you can reach Not just one — but more than each Water stocked and ready near Everyone you love is here [Bridge] You don’t rise when things go wrong You fall back on what you’ve done [Final Chorus] BRACED — check it fast Make the habit always last BRACED — clear and true The plan already lives in you Stay BRACED — not by chance Built through simple, daily stance
