Skyward, Slowhand

Intro

Let it rise

Slowhand, let it go

Verse 1 – slow build into warm synth pads, soft pluck arps

Fingers drift across the dashboard heat

Radio fades but I still feel the beat

Smoke and mirrors turning golden grey

Every window open to the way

Pre-Chorus – reverb wash, layered ad-libs, sweeping strings

Let go now, let it find me

Hands up high where the morning bends

Nothing holding me back tonight

Hold the current, don't lose the light

Chorus – supersaw pluck explosion, heavy gated strings, deep sub drop, driving kick and bassline

Skyward, slowhand, we rise together

Skin against the amber heat of better

Every rooftop turning into gold

This is how the morning starts to unfold

Verse 2 – warm piano chord stabs, soft reverb tails on pads

Six a.m., the light's got a name in every face

Strangers walking like we're chasing time and space

Neon bleeding into blue and grey

Feet still moving long after the last beat fades away

Pre-Chorus – reverb wash, layered ad-libs, sweeping strings

Let go now, let it find me

Hands up high where the morning bends

Nothing holding me back tonight

Hold the current, don't lose the light

Chorus – supersaw pluck explosion, heavy gated strings, deep sub drop, driving kick and bassline

Skyward, slowhand, we rise together

Skin against the amber heat of better

Every rooftop turning into gold

This is how the morning starts to unfold

Bridge – soft piano, sparse percussion, only ad-libs and rising synth swell

No sound left but my breath running free

Just your hand reaching back for me

Windows catch it before we do

This is how the gold breaks through

Chorus – supersaw pluck explosion, heavy gated strings, deep sub drop, driving kick and bassline

Skyward, slowhand, we rise together

Skin against the amber heat of better

Every rooftop turning into gold

This is how the morning starts to unfold

Outro

Slowhand rising

Gold on skin
