Intro

Frost on the window, sunrise thin I sip the spark and start again

Verse 1

My phone lights up like tiny wars, Names I miss, unopened doors. Coffee turns to bitter proof, That I’m still here under this roof. Outside, the city wears a grin, But I can feel the cracks within. I breathe in hard, I won’t delay, If I’m gonna live, it’s gotta be today.

Chorus

Today, hit me like lightning, no delay, Today, I’m bleeding bright but I won’t break, No yesterday to drag my name, It’s only today, it’s only today.

Verse 2

Billboards preach their plastic peace, “Buy a dream, then feel release.” But I’ve watched love leave on read, Heard my doubts crawl in my bed. Kids by the corner laugh like bells, Like they don’t know about goodbyes yet. I take that sound, I hold it tight, Turn my grief into a streetlight.

Bridge 1

Clock hands cut, but I don’t run, I taste the ache and call it sun. If this is all I get to keep, I’ll make it mine before I sleep.

Verse 3

I used to beg for “someday” grace, Now I look it in the face. All my almosts, all my fears, All those swallowed, salted years, They don’t own me, not tonight, I’m done negotiating light. I step out raw, I choose my flame, Say my own name, say my own name.

Chorus

Today, hit me like lightning, no delay, Today, I’m bleeding bright but I won’t break, No yesterday to drag my name, It’s only today, it’s only today.

Bridge 2

Raise your hands if you’ve been gone, Still you wake and still you’re on. Hear that pulse under the pain, That’s your heart refusing chains.

Chorus

Today, hit me like lightning, no delay, Today, I’m bleeding bright but I won’t break, No yesterday to drag my name, It’s only today, it’s only today.

Chorus

Today, shine through the bruises, let it blaze, Today, turn every tear into a wave, No yesterday, no borrowed faith, It’s only today, it’s only today.

Outro

I lock the door on “what if” and “maybe,” Step into now like it saved me. One breath, one choice, I’m okay, It’s only today, it’s only today.
