Quiet Rebellion

[Intro] Soft steps on the stair, a grin in the air I trace my own tiny revolution, there [Verse 1] In the coffee steam I find my spark A tiny smile, a spark in the dark I take the longer road home, just to breathe A secret joy I quietly seethe [Pre-Chorus] Whispered rules flutter, I let them fly Tiny rebellions, small and sly [Chorus] I’m choosing the longer path tonight Savoring a sprinkle of forbidden light A warm joke in the heartbeat of the street Quiet rebellion feels so sweet [Verse 2] A snack tucked away, forbidden bite Crunch and hush, a gleam of spite The clock may tease, I answer with grace My own little anthem in the race [Pre-Chorus] Hushed conspiracies of calm delight I wear my whimsy like a badge in sight [Chorus] I’m choosing the longer path tonight Savoring a sprinkle of forbidden light A warm joke in the heartbeat of the street Quiet rebellion feels so sweet [Bridge] Between the aisles of ordinary days I chart my map in quiet ways No roar, just laughter under my breath Freedom in a small step I keep [Chorus] I’m choosing the longer path tonight Savoring a sprinkle of forbidden light A warm joke in the heartbeat of the street Quiet rebellion feels so sweet [Outro] When the sun slips soft and slow I hear my own rebellious glow A quiet anthem, softly complete In the small choices I repeat
