Mmm… yeah…
(whispered) You’re my inspi-ra-tion…
Ohhh, ohhh… yeah-yeah…
⸻
[Verse 1]
When the weight of the world comes crashin’ down,
You lift me up, turn it all around.
Could be my mama, my brother, my friend,
Or a love that reminds me to stand again.
(Background harmony: “oooh-oooh” / soft hums building warmth)
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody’s got someone they lean on,
A reason to fight when the nights feel long.
(yeahhh… mmm, when the nights feel long…)
⸻
[Chorus]
You’re my inspira-tion (yeah, yeah), you keep me strong,
Through the highs and the lows (ohhh), you help me hold on.
Like a song on the radio, steady and true (steady and true…),
No matter where I go, I carry you.
(I carry you… ohhh, I carry you…)
(Harmony stacks: “in-spi-ra-tion” — big lift, R&B runs on last line)
⸻
[Verse 2]
Might be my children’s laughter in the air (ha-ha-ha, ohhh yeah…),
Or a prayer whispered soft when I’m scared.
Could be a dream that I’m still chasin’ down (chasin’ down, chasin’ down…),
That fire inside when no one’s around.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody’s got someone they live for (live for…),
That spark in the soul, keeps us wantin’ more.
(Moreeee… ohhh, keeps us wantin’ more…)
⸻
[Chorus]
You’re my inspira-tion (my inspira-tion), you keep me strong,
Through the highs and the lows, you help me hold on (help me hold on…).
Like a song on the radio, steady and true,
No matter where I go, I carry you.
(Yeahhh, I carry you, carry you, carry youuuu…)
(Full harmony swell — layered “you’re my inspiration” repeating underneath the lead)
⸻
[Bridge]
Doesn’t matter where you come from (ohhh, nooo…),
We all need a reason to keep pushin’ on.
Faith or family, or a friend’s embrace (mmm, embrace…),
That reminder of love we can’t replace.
(Echo harmonies: “can’t replace… can’t replace…”)
⸻
Yeah, you’re my inspi-ra-tion (you are, you are…),
Forever my foun-da-tion (my foun-da-tion, ohhh yeahhh…),
You’re my inspira-tion…
Mmmm… ohhh…
(Fade out on repeating “inspiration… inspi-ra-tion…” with stacked harmonies and soft ad-lib runs)
