To Be Human: Act III

[Intro] [Instrumental] [Mood: Clearing] [Key: G major] [Harmony: I – V (open)] [Texture: Airy arpeggios] [Constraint: Space before voice] [Verse I] [Mood: Joy (Unforced)] [Key: G major] [Harmony: I – IV – I] [Texture: Gentle sway] [Constraint: Light phrasing] To be human is to suffer and yearn, to reach, to fail, to heal, to learn, to lose our love behind the fear, and find it waiting, always here. [Verse II] [Mood: Recognition] [Key: E minor] [Harmony: vi – IV – I] [Texture: Warm sustain] [Constraint: Memory present] So look— at the light inside the scar, at who we are, at who we are. [Bridge] [Mood: Gratitude] [Key: C major] [Harmony: I – V – vi – IV] [Texture: Expansive, held] [Constraint: Don’t peak] We get the joy, we get the pain, we get the sun, we get the rain, we get this breath, this fleeting view, I get to sing and feel with you. [Outro] [Instrumental] [Mood: Belonging] [Key: G major] [Harmony: I – IV – I] [Texture: Thinning layers] [Constraint: Gentle landing] For all of this The pain and bliss We have to be human We are bound to be human We get to be human.
