Let the rhythm pull us near (Version 2)

Intro

Yeah

Verse 1

I used to measure days by the weight of my wallet

Empty pockets, full plate, just enough to be stable

The city's always awake, but I'm still asleep

Dreaming of a life that's not defined by what I need

My grandma's old clock on the mantle, it stopped ticking too

Forgot how to feel time passing, forgot how to renew

Every day felt like Groundhog Day, stuck in neutral gear

I'd survive another morning, just make it through another year

Then one regular Wednesday, a burst of sunlight broke through

Hit my face like a slap, woke me up from what I was going through

Small thing, but something cracked open

Something came back to life

Hook

Let the rhythm pull us near

Verse 2

Life's too short to be waiting for permission to feel

I'll take small steps towards living, try to quiet my skull

Start with a walk outside, let the city's chaos wash over me

Find some joy in the noise, maybe that's where I'm free

In the park, kids playing tag, their laughter like music to my ears

A little boy on a swing set, laughing, doesn't even have fears

The world's still spinning, still moving, and so am I

Learning to let go of what I've lost, but hold onto life

Hook

Let the rhythm pull us near

Verse 3

Every new day brings a chance to rewrite my story

A blank page waiting for words, a fresh melody born

I'll keep on dancing through darkness, find my feet in time

And let the rhythm pull me near, to where I'm supposed to be

In this world full of noise and confusion

I'll search for what feels like music, something true, something new
