Lyrics

Intro

Mm... yeah

Life don't rush, it rolls

Verse 1

Bus stop mornings, coffee gone cold

Same old shoes but the dreams still bold

Calendar full, pockets light

Still I show up, day and night

Parents’ hopes in a silent call

Friends moved on, I stayed to crawl

Not every win makes a sound

Some grow slow, underground

Chorus

Hold on, I’m running in slow motion

Counting every mile, wearing mixed emotions

Shadows stretch and time moves on

But I’m still here, trying to stay strong

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, stay strong

Mm, mm, keep moving on

Verse 2

Nights at the café, sketching my plans

Streetlights flicker but I still stand

Empty apartment, but I fill the space

With hopes that tomorrow brings a new face

Pre-Chorus

No map, no guide, just following signs

I’ll find a way through tangled lines

Chorus

Hold on, I’m running in slow motion

Counting every mile, wearing mixed emotions

Shadows stretch and time moves on

But I’m still here, trying to stay strong

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, stay strong

Mm, mm, keep moving on

Drop

Hey... breathe it in

Hey... move again

Verse 3

Window fogged up, tracing shapes in steam

Thoughts spin wild but I hold my dream

Another sunrise, unpaid dues

Learning to win with the life I choose

Old regrets in a box on the shelf

I keep walking, trying to know myself

Clouds roll on but so do I

New horizons breaking the sky

Chorus

Hold on, I’m running in slow motion

Counting every mile, wearing mixed emotions

Shadows stretch and time moves on

But I’m still here, trying to stay strong

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, stay strong

Mm, mm, keep moving on

Oh-oh, keep moving on

Chorus

Money ain’t loud, life is deep

I count my peace before I sleep

Not rich yet but my soul’s alive

I’m paid in growth, I survive

Money comes when timing’s right

Till then I live my honest fight

Slow steps still move the line

Life pays back — just takes time

Outro

Yeah…

If today paid nothing

Tomorrow will.

Outro Extension

Ohhhhhh

Hoooooo

Sunrise calls my name again

Won’t trade my days for paper friends

Steps may falter, I still believe

Every scar helps me to breathe

Hoooooo

Ohhhhhh

Road stretches far but I sing along

Life writes the words to my own song

One more dawn, I’ll rise and climb

Trust in hope, counting time

Ohhhhhh

Hoooooo

Yeah, yeah

Hoooooo...
