No Second Take

Lights flash, heart beats, one shot, no rewind,

Feel the weight of every step, the stars realign,

A moment like this, it won’t wait, it won’t break,

So I lock in my focus—no second take.

I see the world in slow motion, pressure in my veins,

Voices tell me "play it safe," but I can't stay the same,

Dreams don't chase the timid, gotta run through the flames,

If I fall, let 'em talk, I don't carry the shame.

Put my hands in the dirt, built a kingdom from the pain,

Every loss that I took was just part of the game,

Now the echoes of doubt turn to cheers in the rain,

I was born for this moment, it's carved in my name.

No second take, no rewind, no edit,

If I’m in it, then I meant it, I don’t flex, I just set it,

Every breath, every step, every cut, every break,

It’s my life, it’s my stage—no second take.

They tried to keep me locked out, but I broke every chain,

Took the long road, still left tire marks in the lane,

Ain’t a soul on this earth that can tell me to wait,

Time is currency, I spend it, never leave it to fate.

Hunger in my eyes, you can hear it in my tone,

I don’t beg for a seat, I just carve out my own,

Every battle, every scar, just a map to the throne,

They don’t see what I see, but I’m already home.

No second take, no rewind, no edit,

If I’m in it, then I meant it, I don’t flex, I just set it,

Every breath, every step, every cut, every break,

It’s my life, it’s my stage—no second take.

No more “what ifs,” no more “someday,”

No more waiting, I’m all in today,

Life don’t hand out a second script,

So I burn every doubt and I make it hit.

Tell the fear in my chest it can watch from the side,

I got one shot, one life, one chance to decide,

I don't wait for the stars, I go pull them from sky,

If I fail, then I fall—but at least I can fly.

Memories fade but the legends remain,

Every risk that I take just rewrites the game,

So when they ask how I made it, just tell 'em I gave,

Every second, every heartbeat—no second take.

No second take, no rewind, no edit,

If I’m in it, then I meant it, I don’t flex, I just set it,

Every breath, every step, every cut, every break,

It’s my life, it’s my stage—no second take.

Lights dim, heart pounds, one shot, no rewind,

Feel the weight of every step, the stars realign,

A moment like this, it won’t wait, it won’t break,

So I lock in my focus—no second take.
