Scroll [Verse 1] Woke up at 6 AM to a buzzing on the nightstand, Reached out for the light before I ever said "amen." Thumb already moving 'fore my eyes could even focus, Somebody's highlight reel, and I'm already losing. Coffee going cold while I'm counting up their blessings, Wondering why my ordinary feels like it's a lesson In everything I'm missing, everything I ain't— Lord, I'm tired of measuring my life against a paint- ed picture on a stranger's perfect wall. [Chorus] So I'm putting down the phone, gonna lift my eyes up higher, Trade the endless scroll for something real and something truer. 'Cause You never made me for a screen and a number, You made me for the morning, for the mountains and the thunder. I don't need the whole world's eyes, just the One who made it all— So I'm setting down the noise, and I'm answering the call. Yeah, I'm done, I'm done with the scroll. [Verse 2] My daughter tugged my sleeve, said "Daddy, are you listening?" And I looked up from the glass to see the tears that she was hiding. How many little moments have I traded for a feed, Missing all the living while I'm watching people leave Their comments and their likes on a life that isn't mine— Meanwhile the clock keeps ticking and I'm running out of time To be the man, the father, and the friend that I could be. There's a whole world right in front of me I finally want to see. [Chorus] So I'm putting down the phone, gonna lift my eyes up higher, Trade the endless scroll for something real and something truer. 'Cause You never made me for a screen and a number, You made me for the morning, for the mountains and the thunder. I don't need the whole world's eyes, just the One who made it all— So I'm setting down the noise, and I'm answering the call. Yeah, I'm done, I'm done with the scroll. [Bridge] There's a quiet in the country that a screen can't imitate, A stillness in a prayer that no notification makes. The world keeps screaming louder, but I finally hear You now— In the silence, in the simple, in the letting myself down. (Let it go, let it go) I don't have to prove a thing. (Let it go, let it go) I just have to let You lead. [Verse 3] Now I read to her at night 'stead of glowing in the dark, And I found out that a full life leaves a fingerprint, a mark That no algorithm chases, that no follower can see— Just a man who traded famous for a family and a peace. [Final Chorus] So I put it down for good, and I lifted my eyes higher, Traded all the endless scroll for something real and something truer. 'Cause You never made me for a screen and a number, You made me for the morning, for the mountains and the thunder. I don't need the whole world's eyes, just the One who made it all— So I set down all the noise, and I answered when You called. Yeah, I'm done, I'm done with the scroll. [Outro] Just me and the morning and the mountains and the thunder, And the One who made it all. Yeah, I finally heard the call.
