Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Chasing horizons, on these sneakers worn thin
A few years ago, just the wind and my grin
Pounding pavements, every dawn’s early light
A few years ago, when every end felt right
Breath by breath, a heart's naive beat
Dreams on loop, never skipping a beat
[Pre-Chorus]
And I—, I—, flew so high, I—, I—
Freedom in the rhythm of the strides
I—, I—, wish I knew why—, I—
Ambitions fade in time
[Chorus]
I surrender, to the ghost of the race
Tracks that turn with no face
In the whispers of the leaves, a silent grace
A few years ago seems like a vanished place
I surrender, but the course—it bends
In designs, my spirit mends
[Instrumental - piano]
[Verse 2]
A few years ago, didn’t know the road’s end
Each mile a message, every curve a new friend
Now the path blurs, these shoes don’t tread same
Life’s marathon under a different name
Sweat and tears, they blend in rain
A few years ago—wish I could explain
[Bridge]
Oh, maps in the stars, did I read them all wrong?
Catching my breath, where do I belong?
Changing tides, drafting fates long drawn
A master’s art, in shadows drawn
[Break]
Na-na-na, na-na, I surrender (I surrender)
Na-na-na, na-na, to something greater (something greater)
[Chorus]
I surrender, to the ghost of the race
Tracks that turn with no face
In the whispers of the leaves, a silent grace
A few years ago seems like a vanished place
I surrender, but the course—it bends
In designs, my spirit mends
[Chorus - loud]
I surrender, to the ghost of the race
Tracks that turn with no face
In the whispers of the leaves, a silent grace
A few years ago seems like a vanished place
I surrender, but the course—it bends
In designs, my spirit mends
[Outro]
A few years ago, a sprinter’s fire
Now I see, beyond the tire
In the folds of my shoulders, a silent choir
A hidden hand, lifting higher
A few years ago—a few years ago
A different dream, the seeds I sow
Whispering winds, now I know
I surrender, to the unseen flow
