[HOOK - VOCAL ON FIRST BEAT] Give me half a step I’ll make the rest myself One cut One lane That’s all I need [VERSE 1] Line of scrimmage Corner in my face Hands ready Trying to kill the route before I make it He’s leaning outside So I sell him there One hard step Plant left Now he’s chasing air Don’t need ten yards Don’t need room to breathe Give me one bad angle And I’m already free Eyes forward Count the steps Know exactly where to turn Space isn’t something you’re given You earn it [PRE-CHORUS] Stem him high Make him choose The second he commits He loses One move No wasted ground By the time he knows I’m gone [CHORUS] Separation Half a step is all it takes Plant hard Cut clean Leave him reaching at the space Separation Ball already in the air Before I turn to find it I know Reed put it there No hesitation No second guess Give me half a step I’ll make the rest [VERSE 2] Slot this time Safety shaded deep Linebacker sitting underneath Trying to close the seam I push vertical Hold his hips Let him think I’m staying straight Then break across his shoulder Right before he changes weight Hands stay quiet Till the ball arrives Catch it clean Take the contact Keep the feet alive White line coming fast One toe Then the other Whole field moving I know exactly where I am [PRE-CHORUS] Read the leverage Feel the space Every route is pressure Put in the right place One move No wasted ground Give me daylight I’m gone [CHORUS] Separation Half a step is all it takes Plant hard Cut clean Leave him reaching at the space Separation Ball already in the air Before I turn to find it I know Reed put it there No hesitation No second guess Give me half a step I’ll make the rest [POST-CHORUS] Inside Outside Sell one Take the other One step Two yards That’s enough [VERSE 3] Years of throwing after practice Made the timing automatic He releases before I break I turn and find it waiting That isn’t luck That isn’t blind That’s thousands of repetitions Making four seconds look like instinct He knows how far I’ll carry the route I know where he wants the window If the defense closes one We find another No conversation needed Snap it Run it Trust it [BREAKDOWN] Press me I release Shade inside I go deep Play outside I cross your face Give me leverage I’ll take space [BRIDGE] People think patience means waiting It doesn’t It means seeing the opening Before you spend the move Commit too early You show your hand Hold it too long The window dies Timing is knowing exactly When space becomes yours Then taking it [FINAL CHORUS] Separation Half a step is all it takes Plant hard Cut clean Watch the whole field change Separation Ball already on its way Before I turn my shoulders I know exactly where it’ll be No hesitation No wasted step Give me half a yard I’ll take the rest Separation One cut One chance Make it clean [FINAL REFRAIN] Half a step That’s enough Ball in the air Hands up Feet down Move [OUTRO - GUITAR RIFF RESOLVES] Next play
