Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] The mirror's a liar tonight, spitting back a ghost Razor on the counter, whispering "it don't hurt the most" But I see your mama's eyes in the dark when you cry And your little sister's laugh still echoes when you die inside [Pre-Chorus] The demons got receipts, they say you owe 'em your breath But love wrote a contract in blood — it's stronger than death [Chorus] DON'T YOU FUCKING QUIT! Tomorrow's still loading, give it a minute to hit Love is the only thing that never learned how to quit Grab your people, hold 'em tight, tell 'em you still exist! Take the reins, take the reins Kick the dark in its goddamn face Ride, baby ride — the promise land's waitin' One more sunrise, one more sunrise, just one more sunrise, grace [Verse 2] They'll tell you it's weakness to stay when it burns But staying alive when you’re bleeding is the hardest thing learned Every scar is a road sign screaming "you already turned" Back toward the living, back toward the ones who still yearn [Pre-Chorus] The voices get loud when the house gets too quiet But love's got a shotgun — and she ain't afraid to fire it [Chorus] DON'T YOU FUCKING GIVE IN! Tomorrow's a bastard but he's still your kin Love is the war drum beatin' under your skin For your daughter, your brother, your ride-or-die friend Take the reins, take the reins Spit blood in the devil's grin Ride, baby ride — the promise land begins Where broken people learn how to win [Bridge] (soft, almost whispered, then building) You don't gotta be strong… you just gotta be here… One more breath… one more stubborn heartbeat… For the hands that still reach… For the "I love you"s you haven't heard yet… GET. THE FUCK. UP. [Final Chorus – full scream-sing] WE DON'T LAY DOWN! We claw, we crawl, we bleed on the crown Love is the only kingdom that never burns down So deny those demons — burn their whole damn town! Take the reins, TAKE THE FUCKING REINS Ride through the fire, ride through the rain The promise land's waiting — call it by name It's called TOMORROW and it's screaming your name! [Outro – ragged, hopeful, alive] Get up… Get going… You're still here. That's already winning. Take the reins. Ride. (End on one last defiant strum and a whispered) "I love you… keep going."
