It has watched rivers carve stone, Forests rise from ash, Stars cross silent skies, And every sunrise arrive exactly on time. Listen... The mountain has something to teach us. --- [Verse 1] Morning paints the waiting stone, Every breeze has found its home. Pines awaken, soft and slow, Dancing where the cool winds blow. Rivers never fear the sea, They simply flow where they're meant to be. Every breath, a sacred start, Every sunrise heals the heart. --- [Pre-Chorus] The sky has never hurried dawn, The moon still shines when day is gone. Every season knows its place, Life unfolds with quiet grace. --- [Chorus] The mountain doesn't hurry, Still it reaches for the sky. Every season has its purpose, Every eagle learns to fly. So I'll soften into breathing, Lay my restless burdens down. The mountain doesn't hurry... In the stillness, peace is found. --- [Verse 2] Roots grow deeper out of sight, Strength is born where there's no light. Raindrops carve the hardest stone, One by one, though all alone. Wildflowers bloom without applause, Never questioning the cause. Every hillside, every stream, Moves within a greater dream. --- [Pre-Chorus 2] No leaf wonders where it lands, It simply trusts the waiting wind. Every heartbeat has its season, Every ending will begin again. --- [Chorus] The mountain doesn't hurry, Still it reaches for the sky. Every season has its purpose, Every eagle learns to fly. So I'll soften into breathing, Lay my restless burdens down. The mountain doesn't hurry... In the stillness, peace is found. --- [Bridge] Maybe I was never late... Only measuring time all wrong. The mountain counts in centuries, While I was counting moments gone. One slow breath... One open heart... One gentle step... I was home all along. --- [Final Chorus] The mountain doesn't hurry, Yet it greets each rising sun. Every path becomes a journey, Every ending's just begun. So I'll soften into breathing, Lay my restless burdens down. The mountain doesn't hurry... In the stillness, peace is found. --- [Outro] Breathe in... Breathe out... The mountain asks for nothing... Yet it stands. The river rushes nowhere... Yet it arrives. The forest never questions spring... It simply blooms. And perhaps... You have never been behind. You are exactly... Where you need to be.
