[Verse 1] Happy is the one who keeps watch over every step Not every door deserves a hand, not every promise earns respect The evening gathers near the corner, choices narrow in the dark A quiet turn toward danger can become a reckless spark [Pre-Chorus] Temptation rarely storms the gate It learns the path, it waits, it imitates [Chorus] Turn away before the first embrace Guard your heart, remember where you stand Wisdom sees the ending in the opening space And strength can be a simple change of plan Happy is the one who stays awake Who leaves the road before the fall [Verse 2] He passed beside her street at dusk, then moved toward her door He saw the welcome in her eyes but chose to look for more She spoke of sacred offerings, dressed desire in borrowed grace He listened close, accepted every lie, and never left the place [Pre-Chorus] One step becomes a chain unseen The smallest yes can bend the will between [Chorus] Turn away before the first embrace Guard your heart, remember where you stand Wisdom sees the ending in the opening space And strength can be a simple change of plan Happy is the one who stays awake Who leaves the road before the fall [Instrumental] [Bridge] Do not wait to prove how strong you are Do not linger where the danger starts Choose the road that keeps your conscience clear Walk away while wisdom still is near [Final Chorus] Turn away before the first embrace Guard your heart, remember where you stand Wisdom sees the ending in the opening space And strength can be a simple change of plan Happy is the one who stays awake Who leaves the road before the fall [Outro] Watch the first step Choose the wiser road Stay awake
