Hmm…
I take a breath now
Slow… and steady

I walk slow through the same old morning
Red light stops, familiar faces
Back then I was laughed at often
Now I’m older, still underrated

They say life gotta move fast
If you’re slow, you fall behind
I learned how to make peace with time
Not every wound needs healing right now

I once tried to build a hard skin
So the world won’t step on me
But I chose to stay clear-minded
Even if my road’s unseen

The world feels upside down sometimes
Honest hearts stay pushed aside
Still I stand here on my ground
Even when the road is tight
When this life gets complicated
I just take a little breath
I don’t need to win the race
I just wanna stay kind

Money talks a little louder
Quiet souls are left behind
Cheaters called a little smarter
Truth is labeled out of time
Envy’s in the daily language
Every win feels like a test
I close my phone, open my chest
Learn to walk my steps, not theirs

I fall down, I rise up slowly
No spotlight over me
I just wanna make it home
With my heart still breathing free

The world feels upside down sometimes
Honest hearts stay pushed aside
Still I stand here on my ground
Even when the road is tight
When this life gets complicated
I just take a little breath
I don’t need to win the race
I just wanna stay kind

Maybe I’m not on the top
Not the loudest voice you hear
But I can face my own reflection
Without running from my fear
If the world won’t change its pace
Then I’ll guard my direction
Not every wound needs revenge
Some are meant to let go

The world feels upside down sometimes
Now I finally see
I’ll keep walking through this life
At my own speed, honestly
When this life gets complicated
I just smile a bit
I don’t need to be the best
Just an honest human being

I walk slow now
No rush to the end
I just wanna arrive
With the same heart I had
