Lyric

Before I move, I stay still

Feel the weight, test the will

I don’t jump, I don’t choose

I just breathe before I move

Before I move, I take time

Let the noise fall behind

No big step, nothing proved

Just this pause before I move

I been ready too early

Moved fast just to worry

Every turn felt urgent

Every silence felt dirty

Now I sit with the space

Let it show me its shape

If I’m leaving this place

I won’t rush the escape

Door half open, no sign

Clock don’t push, neither do I

I don’t need a reason yet

Just the calm in my spine

Before I move, I stay still

Feel the weight, test the will

I don’t jump, I don’t choose

I just breathe before I move

Before I move, I take time

Let the noise fall behind

No big step, nothing proved

Just this pause before I move

I confused motion with growth

Every step with being close

Now I see staying put

Ain’t the same as being froze

I don’t owe the world change

I don’t owe myself pain

If I’m walking ahead

I’ll arrive without shame

Breath slow, shoulders down

Feet firm on this ground

I don’t chase the next sound

I let silence surround

Maybe moving ain’t brave

Maybe waiting’s the play

Maybe strength is the space

Where you don’t run away

I don’t need the green light

I don’t need a clear sign

Just to trust this moment

Before crossing the line

Before I move, I stay still

Feel the weight, test the will

I don’t jump, I don’t choose

I just breathe before I move

Before I move, I take time

Let the noise fall behind

No big step, nothing proved

Just this pause before I move

If I go, I go clean

If I stay, I stay me

I don’t drag every doubt

Into what’s next for me

This ain’t fear, it’s control

This ain’t stuck, it’s my call

I been learning to stand

Before learning to walk

Before I move

I breathe

That’s it
