Stare and Step

[Intro] Footsteps echo, streets are listening Tension hums beneath the neon glare A gaze fixed steady, time is slipping Every footprint carries a silent dare [Verse 1] Walking with purpose, I keep my pace aligned Eyes forward, steady breath, I read the line Shadows watch the corners, cameras never blink If truth is a river, tonight I won’t sink [Pre-Chorus] Hold the moment, let it rise inside Trust the rhythm, let the doubt subside [Chorus] I walk through the stare, I own the air I breathe I won’t break, I won’t fade, I won’t concede With every step I write my own reply Under watching eyes, I lift my chin high [Verse 2] Lace up doubt with courage, lace up fear with care Move with intention, clarity in the glare If they chase the frame, I won’t freeze in time I’m choosing my own map, I’ll cross the line [Pre-Chorus] Hold the moment, let it rise inside Trust the rhythm, let the doubt subside [Chorus] I walk through the stare, I own the air I breathe I won’t break, I won’t fade, I won’t concede With every step I write my own reply Under watching eyes, I lift my chin high [Bridge] Every gaze is a test, every step a vow I’m steady, I’m seen, I’m louder than the crowd now [Chorus] I walk through the stare, I own the air I breathe I won’t break, I won’t fade, I won’t concede With every step I write my own reply Under watching eyes, I lift my chin high [Outro] Footsteps fade into the night, I’m still alive Carved in light and fear, I stand and I arrive
