New Skies [Intro] Four a.m. lights hit the bags by the door Air so cold it feels like a promise in my throat Engines hum low like a prayer made of steel Footsteps sync up with the life I’m about to rebuild [Verse 1] Street lamps flicker on my last walk home tonight Mom’s voice shaking as she tells me “you’ll be alright” My neighborhood echoes in the cracks of my suitcase Familiar smells fade, drifting off like a misplaced grace Maps folded tight but my heartbeat keeps the tempo Hills in the distance look stitched in the window Border signs flash like chapters waiting to open Every mile turning me into someone still unspoken [Pre-Chorus] New skies calling my name in a different tone Every step carving a path where I stand alone Past life waving goodbye in the airport glass I’m learning who I’ll be when the old roads pass [Chorus] I’m a passport in motion, pages catching light Every border I cross makes my spirit ignite Origin in my chest but the future in my stride I’m a story that travels, never stuck to one side [Verse 2] Crowded bus rides where the accents keep shifting Street vendors yell rhythms, whole city uplifting Homesick taste hits like salt in the morning air But growth got a price, and I’m willing to pay the fare Grandma’s old songs echo soft in my headphones Drums from my homeland mix with city dial tones Foreign streets teach me how to bend but not break Becoming someone new with every risk that I take [Pre-Chorus] New skies calling my name in a different tone Every step carving a path where I stand alone Past life waving goodbye in the airport glass I’m learning who I’ll be when the old roads pass [Bridge 1] Quiet moments hit hardest when I try to sleep Old memories return like shadows running deep But change feels holy when the world’s in your hand A soul in migration finally learning to land [Verse 3] Now I stand grounded in a life I built from grit Foreign streets a puzzle, and I learned how pieces fit My voice carries places that my feet couldn't reach Stories stitched in my tone every time that I speak Luggage scars prove what a passport can’t show I’m the sum of every mile and each place I had to go Origin still humming like a drum in my core Destination wide open — always ready for more [Chorus] I’m a passport in motion, pages catching light Every border I cross makes my spirit ignite Origin in my chest but the future in my stride I’m a story that travels, never stuck to one side [Bridge 2] Fear turns to fuel when you choose the unknown Road dust on my kicks proves how much I’ve grown World spins faster when you claim your path I’m rewriting my fate in the aftermath [Chorus] I’m a passport in motion, pages catching light Every border I cross makes my spirit ignite Origin in my chest but the future in my stride I’m a story that travels, never stuck to one side [Chorus] I’m a passport in motion, pages catching light Every border I cross makes my spirit ignite Origin in my chest but the future in my stride I’m a story that travels, never stuck to one side [Outro] Wind in my jacket as the skyline shifts New life ahead, a horizon-shaped gift Luggage feels lighter every place I roam Moving through the world like I’m carrying home Loop “I’m a passport in motion, pages catching light Every border I cross makes my spirit ignite Origin in my chest but the future in my stride I’m a story that travels, never stuck to one side.”
