Verse
Salt runs a line down the curve of your spine
Shirt clings tight where the heat leaves a sign
Knees find the floor like they know how to kneel
Palms press flat on the concrete, feel
Breath turns ragged, then breath finds a shape
Chest keeps time with the drums you can't escape
Hands lift slow through the smoke and the haze
Body remembers the oldest ways
Pre-Chorus
Ask the ache what it's trying to say
Ask the burn if it's leading the way
Something rises where muscle goes weak
Let the body finally speak
Chorus
Sweat becomes prayer
Rising up
Sweat becomes prayer
Fill the cup
Sweat becomes prayer
Bow and rise
Sweat becomes prayer
Open eyes
Verse
Salt in the eyebrows, salt on the tongue
Chest keeps beating like it's just begun
Elbows drop low where the bassline bends
Body kneels down till the hour ends
Fingers spread wide like they're catching light
Spine curls forward then straightens tight
Nothing left but the pulse and the floor
Body's not empty, it's asking for more
Pre-Chorus
Ask the ache what it's trying to say
Ask the burn if it's leading the way
Something rises where muscle goes weak
Let the body finally speak
Chorus
Sweat becomes prayer
Rising up
Sweat becomes prayer
Fill the cup
Sweat becomes prayer
Bow and rise
Sweat becomes prayer
Open eyes
Bridge
Every drop that falls is a word let go
Every knee that bends says what you know
Floor turns altar under tired feet
Body kneels down to complete
Chorus
Sweat becomes prayer
Rising up
Sweat becomes prayer
Fill the cup
Sweat becomes prayer
Bow and rise
Sweat becomes prayer
Open eyes
