[Intro]
Soft boots on concrete, ready breath and quiet eyes
The day can shout, but I hear the plan in the silence
[Verse 1]
Eyes fixed on the horizon, steady hands on the map
Every small step a promise, every heartbeat a trap
For doubt that tries to rise, I tighten the seam of will
I stand where courage grows, where need meets the still
[Pre-Chorus]
When the world is loud and the path is rough
I listen for the angle, I measure enough
[Chorus]
I am prepared, I am patient, I am calm in the wait
I carry the dawn in my chest, I walk toward the gate
No fear can shake the posture of a mind that's true
Quiet strength, ready now, for whatever comes due
[Verse 2]
Dust on my boots tells stories of roads I’ve walked before
But I’m checkpoint and compass, I’ve learned what I’m fighting for
With every careful step I rewrite what’s unknown
A quiet force that blesses the day with its own
[Pre-Chorus]
When the night grows heavy and courage feels thin
I breathe in resolve, and I breathe out the wind
[Chorus]
I am prepared, I am patient, I am calm in the wait
I carry the dawn in my chest, I walk toward the gate
No fear can shake the posture of a mind that's true
Quiet strength, ready now, for whatever comes due
[Bridge]
If shadows stretch long, I won’t lose my grade
If alarms go loud, I’ll hold the steady line I’ve laid
[Chorus]
I am prepared, I am patient, I am calm in the wait
I carry the dawn in my chest, I walk toward the gate
No fear can shake the posture of a mind that's true
Quiet strength, ready now, for whatever comes due
[Outro]
Fine with the quiet, ready for the ride
Steady gaze, steady heart, already on the inside
