Prompt / Lyrics
Intro (low heartbeat, distant reverb) I was inches from folding. Couldn’t see past the fog. Breath shallow. World heavy. Then something in me said… Not yet. ⸻ Hook I caught a second wind When I thought I was done When the dark got thick And I couldn’t outrun When the weight pressed down And my knees went numb Something deep inside Said you ain’t finished, son I caught a second wind Outta nowhere it came Not loud, not proud Just a shift in the flame I was buried in doubt Now I’m rising again I didn’t restart life I just found my second wind ⸻ Verse 1 There was a night I won’t speak on Where the ceiling felt like stone Phone silent Mind violent Heart colder than it’s known I stared at my reflection Didn’t recognize the face Saw a man worn thin From carrying too much weight Ambition turned fragile Hope started to thin I questioned every reason Why I ever began I wasn’t loud about it Didn’t post a single word But inside I was fractured And nobody heard I almost let the pressure Rewrite who I am Almost let exhaustion Convince me to abandon the plan But pain don’t get the final word Unless you let it win And something ancient in my chest Refused to cave in ⸻ Hook I caught a second wind When I thought I was done When the dark got thick And I couldn’t outrun When the weight pressed down And my knees went numb Something deep inside Said you ain’t finished, son I caught a second wind Outta nowhere it came Not loud, not proud Just a shift in the flame I was buried in doubt Now I’m rising again I didn’t restart life I just found my second wind ⸻ Verse 2 It wasn’t fireworks It wasn’t applause It was discipline whispering Through mental fog It was choosing to stand When lying down felt right It was taking one breath Then another despite It was silence becoming strength Instead of defeat It was lacing my shoes With blistered feet I learned resilience Ain’t about hype It’s about staying in the ring When you’re tired of the fight The world didn’t change The load didn’t lift But my posture did And that was the shift You don’t wait for rescue You become the rescue And that realization Reconstructs you ⸻ Bridge (minimal instrumental, almost spoken) Nobody clapped. Nobody knew. But that moment Was bigger than any breakthrough. ⸻ Final Hook (bigger, layered) I caught a second wind When I thought I was done When the dark got thick And I couldn’t outrun When the weight pressed down And my knees went numb Something deep inside Said you ain’t finished, son I caught a second wind It don’t shout, it don’t trend It just shows up quiet And rebuilds you again I was buried in doubt Now I’m rising again I didn’t restart life I just found my second wind ⸻ Outro (soft, steady) It wasn’t luck. It wasn’t fate. It was grit that refused To evaporate.
