​[Verse 1] Yo, check the calendar, another page is tearing out the binding I’m looking for the silver but I’m choking on the lining It’s a friction in the static, it’s a systematic panic Trying to hold it all together while the planet’s getting frantic I got the weight of the city sitting pretty on my shoulder blades Navigating mazes in a haze of these older days The rent is overdue and the sun is looking muted But the rhythm in my spirit remains deeply rooted I’m breathing in the smog, exhale a bit of poetry Life is like a debt that I’m paying back globally It’s heavy, yeah, it’s jagged, and it’s dragging on the concrete But I’m finding all the magic in the timing of the heartbeat. ​[Pre-Chorus] And the shadows try to tell me that the light is gone But the darkest part of night is just the birth of dawn... (Wait for it...) ​[Chorus] IT’S THE GRAVITY THAT HOLDS US DOWN BUT THE GLOW IS GONNA PULL US THROUGH! Everything is breaking, everything is shaking But I’m waking up to something new! Yeah, the road is long and the wind is cold But there’s a story left that’s yet to be told We’re climbing through the wreckage just to see the view THE GLOW IS GONNA PULL US THROUGH! ​[Verse 2] See, the struggle isn't seasonal, it’s visceral and clinical We’re reaching for the pinnacle while buried in the cynical Every setback is a setup for a comeback in the making Every heart that’s currently aching is just a vessel for the breaking Of the chains, of the lanes, of the mental weather vanes We’re dancing in the hurricane and washing off the stains You can’t have the harvest without the rain and the mud You can’t have the fire without the rush of the blood So I’m-a keep stepping, keep repping the vision Making the decision to ignore the collision The future is a garden and I’m planting the seed I got everything I want because I have what I need! ​[Bridge] Don't let the pressure turn your diamond back to coal... Hold onto the pieces of your weary soul... BREAK THE CYCLE. FEEL THE LIGHT. STAY AWAKE. WIN THE FIGHT. ​[Chorus] IT’S THE GRAVITY THAT HOLDS US DOWN BUT THE GLOW IS GONNA PULL US THROUGH! Everything is breaking, everything is shaking But I’m waking up to something new! Yeah, the road is long and the wind is cold But there’s a story left that’s yet to be told We’re climbing through the wreckage just to see the view THE GLOW IS GONNA PULL US THROUGH! ​[Outro] Keep going... Yeah, we see the view now. Through the wreckage... It’s beautiful.
