Sinking

(rap, Alt-pop war anthem with male vocals: serrated guitars locked to cinematic drums, sub drops hitting like shockwaves under a dark hip‑hop groove. Verses in a low, controlled growl over heartbeat pulses and filtered synths; pre‑chorus tightens with staccato strings. Chorus explodes into a stadium-sized chant, stacked gang vocals, distorted bass swells, and dance-pop percussion that keeps it moving while everything feels like it’s splitting open., hip-hop, rock, pop, dance pop, deep, male vocals)

Verse 1
I felt it before it showed
In the way the silence leaned
Like the air was getting heavier
Without saying what it means

You were steady at the wheel
Like nothing could go wrong
But the floor beneath my breathing
Started slipping all at once

Pre-Chorus
There’s a rhythm in the breaking
Only I can hear—

Chorus
I’m sinking
But I’m smiling like I’m fine
Hands still steady on the line
While the water climbs

I’m sinking
And I won’t let you see
How deep it’s pulling me
Under everything

Verse 2
Every word comes out too calm
Like I practiced how to stay
While the walls begin to tremble
And the light just fades to grey

You look at me like I’m home
Like I’m something that won’t move
But I’m counting every second
Of what I’m about to lose

Pre-Chorus
If I say it out loud
Then it all becomes real—

Chorus
I’m sinking
But I’m holding up the sky
Keeping everything in line
While it falls inside

I’m sinking
And you’re right next to me
Still believing I’m the sea
Not the wreck beneath

Bridge
There’s a crack I couldn’t stop
There’s a line I couldn’t hold
There’s a version of this ending
I was never brave to show

I was taught to stay in place
Even when it starts to break
So I carry every warning
Like it’s mine alone to take

Break (quiet, stripped)
If I reach for you now—
Will you feel me going down?

Final Chorus
I’m sinking
And the calm is just a mask
Something slipping through the cracks
I can’t hold it back

I’m sinking
If you look into my eyes
You might see it this time—
I was drowning the whole night
