[Verse 1]
Incense in a dorm room
Ash on the math book
Mama said pray, I took a long look
Buddha on a keychain
Hanging from the rearview
Cussing at the traffic like it’s all you
Scrolling through sutras on a cracked phone screen
Tabs of philosophy and nicotine
Trying to meditate between the pings
Mind doing backflips, same old things
[Chorus]
I just wanna sit still, be silent inside
Enlightenment in a mosh pit, peace in the riot
Halo on a hoodie, mud on my Nikes
Searching for forever in these late-night crises
I just wanna float once, get off this ride
Turn all of my chaos into a slow tide
If there’s a heaven in my head, let it finally speak
I’m tryna find that endless, that endless peace
[Verse 2]
Therapy on Tuesday
Stage dive Friday
Preacher on the corner saying “there’s one way”
But I hear trumpets
In the subway echo
Old man busking like a tired echo
Tattoo on my wrist says “let that go”
Still gripping every grudge like a lifeboat
Friends getting faded in the back row seats
I’m sipping on water, sweating through the beat
[Chorus]
I just wanna sit still, be silent inside
Enlightenment in a mosh pit, peace in the riot
Halo on a hoodie, mud on my Nikes
Searching for forever in these late-night crises
I just wanna float once, get off this ride
Turn all of my chaos into a slow tide
If there’s a heaven in my head, let it finally speak
I’m tryna find that endless, that endless peace
[Bridge]
[Band drops to soft jazz groove]
Streetlamp circle, breathing in slow
Friends talk loud, I’m letting it go
Laugh cuts through like a folk song, warm
For a second I’m present in the storm (yeah)
Maybe it’s not some mountain top
Maybe it’s this bus stop, fears that stop
Sharing cheap fries, scar stories, loose teeth
Little sacred moments in between beats
[Chorus]
I just wanna sit still, be silent inside
Enlightenment in a mosh pit, peace in the riot
Halo on a hoodie, mud on my Nikes
Searching for forever in these late-night crises
I just wanna float once, get off this ride
Turn all of my chaos into a slow tide
If there’s a heaven in my head, let it finally speak
Till every broken piece
Rests in that endless, that endless peace
