Lyrics
[Intro] Yeah, take a breath, let it settle [Chorus] I keep my head high when the room gets heavy One more step, now the whole thing's ready You can count me out, but i won't go quiet Built from the pressure, now i move like fire I keep my head high, keep my hands steady No looking back, i'm already ready If the door stays locked, i'm breaking through it Say my name once, watch me turn into it [Verse 1] Phone face down on the kitchen table Made one promise and i kept it stable Old doubts talking from the passenger seat I let them ride, but they don't steer me Shoes by the mat, still dust from the long way Cold cup of coffee at the start of the workday Every small choice put a mark on the wall Now the little lines look like a climb this tall [Pre-Chorus] I don't need permission I don't need a sign When the weight gets lifted I remember why [Chorus] I keep my head high when the room gets heavy One more step, now the whole thing's ready You can count me out, but i won't go quiet Built from the pressure, now i move like fire I keep my head high, keep my hands steady No looking back, i'm already ready If the door stays locked, i'm breaking through it Say my name once, watch me turn into it [Verse 2] New page folded in the back of the notebook Three missed calls from the life that i outgrew I don't hate them, i just chose a new route Had to lose the map just to figure it out Rain on the glass, but the plan stays clear I can feel the future getting closer in here No applause needed, no room full of praise I was built in the quiet on the ordinary days [Bridge] For a moment, let the silence speak Feel the ground underneath your feet Then the pulse comes back, and the doubt lets go I was waiting for a sign—i became my own [Final chorus] I keep my head high when the room gets heavy One more step, now the whole thing's ready You can count me out, but i won't go quiet Built from the pressure, now i move like fire I keep my head high, keep my hands steady No looking back, i'm already ready If the door stays locked, i'm breaking through it Say my name once, watch me turn into it [Outro] Head high, hands steady Already ready
