Alarm before the sunrise, coffee in the dark,
Looking for a story in another market spark.
Lines across the chart like a map nobody sees,
Trying to find the truth between the candles and the breeze.
Some days take a little, some days take it all,
You learn a little louder every time you fall.
Still you show up early, same chair, same screen,
Chasing something bigger than a number on a dream.
Pre-Chorus
‘Cause it’s never been about the easy road,
It’s carrying a heavy load.
One more lesson, one more try,
Keeping your eyes on the morning sky.
Chorus
I’m still here, one more candle, one more day,
Learning every hard-earned step along the way.
Not racing anybody, just becoming who I’ll be,
Brick by brick, the future’s calling me.
When the world says “slow down,” I just breathe,
Trusting what tomorrow might reveal to me.
Every setback writes another line,
Until the mountain finally calls it mine.
Verse 2
North Slope nights and family on your mind,
Building something lasting takes a little time.
Dreaming of a morning where the clock belongs to you,
Trading for a future where the little things shine through.
Not looking for perfection, just a better way,
One good decision at the start of every day.
The quiet kind of confidence nobody can fake,
Built from every promise that you chose not to break.
Bridge
The strongest steel is forged inside the flame,
And every scar remembers why you came.
The road gets lonely, but you never lose your sight,
’Cause hope looks different in the early morning light.
Final Chorus
I’m still here, one more candle, one more chance,
Life’s not luck—it’s showing up again.
Every sunrise brings another page,
Another step, another stage.
One day they’ll ask how it all came true,
There wasn’t any secret—just staying true.
One more candle. One more dawn.
One more reason to keep moving on.
