[Intro: Soft fingerpicked acoustic guitar, deep theta wave binaural beats pulsing softly, faint isochronic ticking] (Mmm, mmm, yeah...) (Wiped a clean slate...) (Sha-ma-ha-ra-ta! Align the spirit!) (Listen close...)
[Verse 1: Breathy, intimate close-mic vocals] My heart is crying out, but yet no one seems to hear As I batter at the door, trying to get out of this mortal pain I'm in (Mortal pain... yeah) I'm a victim of my own undoing, a shell of my past experience Tore down by my mistakes, searching for my purpose in the dark Getting nothing but disappointments, regrets, and a heavy spark And all I am is alone... undeniably alone Looking at the empty space where the shadows once had grown
[Pre-Chorus: Subtle cello enters, building tension, slow foot-stomp percussion] But my strength in these times, it comes from above I look up with thankfulness and wonder at His love (How He keeps on loving me...) (He keeps on loving me, yeah!) I thought I evicted the shadow long ago, wiped a clean slate But I’m standing on the threshold, opening up the gate! (Stutter: P-P-Possibilities!)
[Chorus: Explosive full band, driving folk-rock groove, heavy sub-bass & claps] Take a look around, tell me, what do you see? One empty room filled with our memories! (Faded outlines on the wall!) I see the shattered frames of what used to be The pushing, the shoving, the screaming tearing at me! (Why'd you break my dreams?) But I got on my knees, prayed for you through the cries Now the Father is wiping the tears from my eyes! And I look around this empty room... and all I see Is a room full of the possibilities! (Beautiful possibilities!)
[Verse 2: Gritty, rhythmic R&B-folk pocket groove] These blank pages of my life, stories still untold But yet a fairytale is waiting, starting to unfold Should've, could've, would've... but no time for regrets (No time, no!) Fears, tears, and anxiety, the devil's heavy nets I used to lose my grip on the pen that I hold But the calm and steady thoughts are turning into gold! (Words can form sentences now!) I'm finding my happy ending, rewriting my soul Washing off the wreckage and letting grace take control!
[Pre-Chorus: Heavy building stomps, electric guitar feedback swells] I've sat in many places alone, gotten glances, double looks But He alone knows what lies before me, writing new books! (He knows my name!) (He knows my name, yeah!) The storm will end, I've weathered it before Now watch me step right past the shadow at my door! (Let the drums drop!)
[Chorus: Maximum energy belt, soaring electric guitar leads, full choir harmonies] Take a look around, tell me, what do you see? One empty room filled with our memories! (Faded outlines on the wall!) I see the shattered frames of what used to be The pushing, the shoving, the screaming tearing at me! (Why'd you break my dreams?) But I got on my knees, prayed for you through the cries Now the Father is wiping the tears from my eyes! And I look around this empty room... and all I see Is a room full of the possibilities! (Beautiful possibilities!)
[Verse 3: Rhythmic spoken-word, acoustic guitar and cello only, deep sub-bass pulse] Pain in happiness, pain in joy, pain in sadness... I spent years trapped in the center of the madness. Wiping a clean slate, but yet my heart cried out: "Not enough!" Wondering when it's my turn, when the road is too rough But at the utterance of my name, the pages write themselves I'm pulling down the old books, clearing off the shelves. The first written words, when it first began... I’m stepping out of the shadows, walking in His plan!
[Bridge: Stripped back to raw cello, foot-stomps, and massive gospel choir chants] (Speaking in tongues: Ra-ba-sha-ka-ta! He-li-os!) (Stomp, stomp, clap! Let the spirit ride!) He keeps on loving me... regardless of my undoing! (How He loves me!) I need to see You face-to-face, my rock and my guide I am stepping into bold new aptitudes... nothing left to hide! (Scatting: Ski-bi-di-bop, set the spirit free, set it free!)
[Chorus: Explosive climax, maximum vocal runs, full energetic instruments] Take a look around, tell me, what do you see? No more shadows of my past, no more broken "we"! I see the faded outlines, but they're washed in His grace! The King of all Kings is rebuilding this space! (He rebuilt the space!) And I look around this empty room, and all I see Is a room full of the possibilities! (Possibilities! Yeah!) I prayed for you, I cried for you, now I’m living for me! (I'm finally free!)
[Outro: Slow acoustic guitar fade-out, lingering cello, soft binaural waves] At the utterance of my name... The pages write themselves. (No more undoing...) (No more shadows...) Just the possibilities... (Possibilities...) (He keeps on loving me...) [Fade out with natural room silence] [End]
