Stomach Punch

[Intro] In the gut of the night, I hear a drumbeat bite, ooh [Verse 1] Stomach punched by a memory, swift and sly Like thunder in a quiet room, I brace my tides Waning light through the window, a small old sigh I ride the ache, I’m learning how to survive [Pre-Chorus] But I won’t crumble, I’ll stand up and breathe Find a rhythm in the ache, a reason to believe [Chorus] Stomach punch, but I won’t stay down, I’ll rise Digest the past, let the future harmonize Heart keeps beating, stubborn in the skies I’ll turn this hit into fuel for the trying highs [Verse 2] Pressure folds like paper, then unfolds anew I write my way through the ache with a careful view The storm may press its memory, but I press through Growing tougher, softer at the same time too [Pre-Chorus] I won’t crumble, I’ll stand up and breathe Find a rhythm in the ache, a reason to believe [Chorus] Stomach punch, but I won’t stay down, I’ll rise Digest the past, let the future harmonize Heart keeps beating, stubborn in the skies I’ll turn this hit into fuel for the trying highs [Bridge] Every ache a teacher, every scar a guide I’m stitching strength from the hurt I’ve survived [Chorus] Stomach punch, but I won’t stay down, I’ll rise Digest the past, let the future harmonize Heart keeps beating, stubborn in the skies I’ll turn this hit into fuel for the trying highs [Outro] Breath by breath, I walk into the light The punch becomes a push toward what’s right
