Sunrise paints the city gold, another chase, another win
I build my kingdom on the rush, a life lived to the brim
Every dollar, every deal, a stepping stone to something more
Leaving consequences behind me, just out the back door
The world's a ladder, cold and hard, and I'm just climbing to the peak
Never looking down, never backing down, a promise that I keep.
Then I see you, standing there, a light I can't quite understand
A different kind of beautiful, with grace in your hand
Too good for this broken world, too good for a man like me
I turn and walk away, a ghost you'll never see
'Cause I'm lost in my own war, chasing what the world calls mine
But you're a whisper from above, a different kind of sign
Verse 2 (Revised)
Days pass like ghosts now, the grind goes on, but it feels so wrong
There’s a hollow echo in my chest, a different kind of song
Then a cab pulls up beside me, a twist of fate, a different street
And there you are, a second chance, a moment to complete
You're speaking of a grace so pure, a Savior who can mend my soul
You're showing me a different path, to finally feel whole
Bridge (Revised)
They said a leopard can't change its spots, that a river can't reverse its flow
And all I've ever known is darkness, how can I let the light grow?
This change isn't easy, it's a war fought in my bones
Breaking down the walls I built with all my stolen stones
But you're standing right here, through every fall and every tear
And you're showing me a love that casts out all the darkest fears
Final Chorus (Revised)
And now I see you, standing there, a light I finally understand
A gift from a higher power, with grace in your hand
Just right for this broken world, just right for a man like me
You stayed and showed me the truth, a love that set me free
'Cause I was lost, but I was found in this moment, a love that's truly mine
And you were a promise from above, a beautiful, perfect sign.
