Sixty Beats

Verse 1 Before I opened my eyes, my heart had already begun. It didn’t need a reason. It didn’t ask where life would lead. It simply kept the rhythm. One quiet beat after another. Verse 2 It stayed with me through every first step, every mistake, every hand I held, every goodbye I never saw coming. It never stopped to judge. It only carried me forward. Pre-Chorus When my mind filled with noise, my heart stayed calm. It always knew that another beat would come. Chorus Sixty beats a minute. A quiet promise inside my chest. Not chasing time. Not running from tomorrow. Just reminding me that I’m still here. Still breathing. Still becoming. Verse 3 I’ve changed more times than I can remember. My dreams have changed. My face has changed. The world has changed. But the rhythm beneath it all has never forgotten my name. Bridge One day the silence will finally arrive. Until then, every heartbeat is another page, another sunrise, another chance to love, another chance to begin again. Final Chorus Sixty beats a minute. The oldest song I’ll ever know. It has been with me since my first breath. It will stay until my last. Everything between those moments is simply life… heard one heartbeat at a time.
