Chasing the Beat

[Intro] Neon rain on the ceiling, bass hums like a pulse in my chest Crowd a constellation, I map the night with a restless breath Turntable tides spinning stories I barely know how to tell I’m chasing a heartbeat that flickers and vanishes like a spell [Verse 1] Darkness blooms in strobe light, I tilt at the edge of the floor A thousand voices lure me forward, but I’m chasing something more A spark slips through the snare, a whisper in the fuse box of the night I nod to fate, drop the needle, and step into the electric bright [Pre-Chorus] Moments collide in the shimmer, every drop could be fate I press on through the crowd’s orbit, fueled by a fevered state [Chorus] I’m chasing the perfect beat, it slips through my fingers, wide as the street When the bassLine floods the room, I drift and I find a rhythm sweet Between the cheers and the blur, I’m choosing what to risk tonight A fleeting touch, a spark in the dark, then back into the neon light [Verse 2] Between tracks I count the heartbeats, a quiet island in the roar My reflection in a chrome glass whispers, what am I asking for Urgency stitches silence into the seams of the set’s tight weave I ride the moment’s edge, praying the chorus won’t leave [Pre-Chorus] Faces pulse like satellites, each one a spark, a dare I trade a secret for a tempo, breathing in the midnight air [Chorus] I’m chasing the perfect beat, it slips through my fingers, wide as the street When the bassLine floods the room, I drift and I find a rhythm sweet Between the cheers and the blur, I’m choosing what to risk tonight A fleeting touch, a spark in the dark, then back into the neon light [Bridge] And in the quiet between drops, I hear the lone echo of my name I’m the hand that steadies the switch, the ghost that haunts the flame If the night forgets me, I’ll remember the pulse I wore on my sleeve That chasing beat, that fearless thirsty heart, that wish I still believe [Chorus] I’m chasing the perfect beat, it slips through my fingers, wide as the street When the bassLine floods the room, I drift and I find a rhythm sweet Between the cheers and the blur, I’m choosing what to risk tonight A fleeting touch, a spark in the dark, then back into the neon light [Outro] The dawn hums soft as vinyl, I pack up a map of what I found One more night, one brighter chase, till the city yawns and spins around
