Moments & Memories

[Verse 1: Fast, rhythmic flow, tight staccato pockets] Three AM, emergency, patching up the surgery I don't need a cape to save you from the hurt you see Threw you a lifeline, watched you float Now I'm the anchor at the bottom of the boat I'm the spark, you're the fire, I'm the matchstick Took the heavy hit just to catch your quick But I slip, I dip, I vanish in the mist I exist just to assist, watch me resist The urge to stay, I paved the way But I don't get a cut of the profit that you make today Nah, I don't get a cut.

[Chorus: Melodic, soaring, stretch the vowels, heavy emotion] I'm the best chapter you never read twice The parachute that saves your life, then cuts the ties Yeah, I hand you the sky, then I step to the side I'm the greatest temporary ride I'm the best chapter you never read twice The parachute that saves your life, then cuts the ties I hand you the sky, watch me step to the side The greatest temporary ride.

[Verse 2: Slightly faster, aggressive triplets, bouncy flow] New horizons looking bright in your rearview I'm the shadow fading out in the clear blue I’m the catalyst, the architect, the sudden boom I built up the whole house, but I'm leaving the room Staccato steps, walking backwards out the door Don't need a thank you note, don't need an encore It’s a heavy crown, being everybody's cure Taking on the trauma, that's the only thing I'm sure But when the exorcism’s done, the priest gets the boot I’m the absolute truth, staring at the roof.

[Chorus: Melodic, soaring, stretch the vowels, heavy emotion] I'm the best chapter you never read twice The parachute that saves your life, then cuts the ties Yeah, I hand you the sky, then I step to the side I'm the greatest temporary ride I'm the best chapter you never read twice The parachute that saves your life, then cuts the ties I hand you the sky, watch me step to the side The greatest temporary ride.

[Bridge: Strip the beat back, slower, raw and vulnerable delivery] I chose this path, nobody forced my hand I'm the master of the exit, the phantom in the sand I heal the wound up, then I vanish from the scene The most important extra that you've ever seen New horizons for you, empty rooms for me The temporary king, bowing down to the free.

[Outro: Heavy reverb on vocals, fading out slowly] The greatest temporary ride... Yeah, watch me step to the side... Best chapter, never read twice... Temporary ride
