[INTRO]
(Soft piano, distant vinyl crackle, low pad swelling)
(Heartbeat kick fades in slowly)
I’m trying to read tomorrow in the stars tonight
But every answer bends when I reach for the light
⸻
[VERSE 1]
(Minimal drums, warm synths breathing)
I’m doing my best just to see ahead
But life keeps writing words I never said
Photographs stuck inside my phone
Smiles from places I outgrew alone
Family voices in the back of my head
Friends I miss, things we almost said
Every year feels lighter and heavier too
Guess that’s what time always puts us through
⸻
[PRE-CHORUS]
(Rising chords, sidechained pad begins)
They say it gets easier over time
But it’s easier said than done to be fine
⸻
[CHORUS]
(Full melodic drop — emotional bass, wide synth lead)
I feel the rhythm in the world still moving
Even when my heart feels stuck in place
Living for the ones we lost, still choosing
To keep their fire inside my veins
I won’t let go
Even when the night feels endless
I won’t let go
I’m still standing through the pain
⸻
[POST-CHORUS]
(Vocal chops echoing “still moving… still moving…”)
(Sub-bass rolls underneath)
⸻
[VERSE 2]
(Beat pulls back slightly, guitar texture added)
Nostalgia hits like a sudden wave
Old songs remind me who I used to be
We laughed like time was something we could save
Now every moment feels borrowed, briefly
Stress in my chest, weight on my spine
Mental scars don’t heal on a timeline
They say breathe, like it fixes the ache
But some days just breathing feels like a break
⸻
[PRE-CHORUS 2]
(Snare builds, vocal harmonies swell)
I know the pain can be too much to hold
But I carry it anyway — I was never that cold
⸻
[DROP / CHORUS 2]
(Heavier dubstep elements, emotional lead + growl bass)
I feel the rhythm in the world keep spinning
Even when I’m barely getting through
Living for the one we lost, still winning
Every step I take is proof
I won’t let go
Even when my hands are shaking
I won’t let go
Even when my heart is breaking
⸻
[BRIDGE – SPOKEN / STRIPPED]
(Music drops to pad + distant reverb)
They tell you to move on
Like grief has a switch
Like memories don’t live in your bones
I’m not over it
I’m learning to carry it
⸻
[FINAL BUILD]
(Choir pad enters, rising arps, drums build)
The future’s blurry, but I’m still here
Still breathing through the doubt and fear
⸻
[FINAL CHORUS / OUTRO DROP]
(Biggest drop — layered synths, emotional bass, wide mix)
I feel the rhythm in the world still moving
So I move with it, scarred but alive
Living for the ones we lost, still proving
Love never dies — it multiplies
(Music slowly strips back)
(Piano returns, heartbeat fades)
⸻
[OUTRO]
(Soft piano, vinyl crackle returns)
Still moving forward…
Even when it hurts.
