[Intro – Distant Choir / Faded In] (low, almost like it’s already happening) I don’t wanna sleep… (sleep…) I don’t wanna stop… (stop…) [Main Choir Loop – Layer 1] (clean, unified) I’m addicted to the sound To the way it pull me down To the way I feel alive When the world ain’t lookin’ round [Layer 2 – Call & Response Choir] (add undertones, slight delay) I don’t need no rest (no rest…) I don’t need no break (no break…) If it take my breath (my breath…) Let it take… let it take… [Verse (Coded / Hidden Vent)] They say I should rest… I say I’m almost there But “there” keep movin’—so I stay in the air Hands on the craft like it breathe when I care If I let go too long… it forget I was there I don’t call it addiction… it just know where I be Late night… same glow… it keep callin’ on me They hear it, they nod… say “that’s all you gon’ need” Like sound pay the bills… or belief plant a seed I seen how it go when somebody step in When the weight get shared, it don’t break from within Seen a man lose focus, still covered by him Had a net underneath every fall that he in Me? I just fall… then I write on the floor Turn pain into rhythm, then ask it for more They say “you so good, it’ll open the door” But I’m still at the handle… just learnin’ the force It’s funny how silence get louder with praise They don’t say “what you need?”—just “you gon’ be straight” Like I’m already fed off the sound that I make Like hunger don’t live in the space that I create So I keep feedin’ it… don’t ask what it cost Time start bendin’, I don’t notice the loss If I stop for a second, I feel somethin’ off Like I’m not who I am when I’m cut from the source But don’t read too deep… I’m just locked in the zone Just me and the work, I ain’t ask for a loan Just me and the loop, it keep singin’ me home They hear it and smile… say “you good on your own” And maybe they right… maybe this all I need Just air in the mic and a thought I can bleed If nobody water it, still grow from the seed Just strange how it flourish… but never get seen I don’t need nothin’… that’s what I repeat While I’m buildin’ a world off a minimal reach If it’s love, it’s enough… if it’s not, it’s still me Just don’t call it support if it don’t ever speak [Build Section – Choir Gets Bigger / Slight Distortion] (this is where D-Day energy creeps in) Heartbeat sync with the drum I ain’t runnin’—I become Every note, every hum If I stop… what I become? [Break – Minimal Choir / Almost Whispered] (strip it back… this is the “question” moment) If I lose this… Do I lose me…? [Final Choir – FULL / Gospel + Go-Go Energy] (add rhythm feel, almost stomp/clap under it) I’m addicted to the feelin’ Not the high, but the healin’ If it’s wrong, I ain’t leavin’ If it’s right… why I’m fiendin’? [ Fading Choir / Slight Vinyl Crackle] (leave them thinking) Don’t wake me… If this ain’t sleep… [Outro (Female Voice – low Tone)] (soft… close mic… almost like she’s right next to you) “D-Day… wake up…” (slight pause… breath) “…it’s one o one”
