[Intro - Atmospheric]
(soft tropical pads + distant waves)
[Verse 1 - Rap]
Late nights in the islands, stars watching me grind
Demons in my head louder than the tide
Self-sabotage cycles, breaking my own stride
But something in the breeze says it's time to rise
[Pre-Chorus]
Every scar a story, every wave a lesson
Heart heavy but the ocean keeps me guessing
[Chorus - Melodic, Anthemic]
This is war with myself, but I'm winning tonight
Breaking chains under moonlight, stepping into light
No more hiding the pain, no more running from me
King of my chaos, riding waves to victory
War with myself — feel the fire ignite
Turning demons to dust in the tropical night
[Verse 2 - Rap]
Russ precision bars, NF heart on display
Wordplay sharp like coral, truth cutting through the waves
From doubt to drive, Mililani dreams in my veins
Now the current's with me, nothing left to restrain
[Bridge - Half-Sung, Building]
No more pretending... hear the ocean calling...
This the moment I claim it all...
[Final Chorus - Layered, Bigger + Ad-libs]
War with myself... (ad-libs: yeah, I rise!)
Winning the fight, under island skies
King of my chaos — watch me rise!
