Epilogue: Before the Climb

Lyrics

Verse 1
There’s a quiet in the morning
When the weight begins to shift
You can feel it in the silence
Like the world forgot to drift
There’s a warmth beside your shadow
A breath that isn’t yours
A presence in the stillness
Like someone walked you through the doors

Pre-Chorus
You’re not the one who started
But you still hold the flame
You’ve lost the names and reasons
But you walk just the same

Chorus
Before the climb
There’s a moment like this
A clearing in the fog
A hand you didn’t miss
You don’t need the answer
You don’t need the sign
Just the rhythm of your breath
And the voice that says: you’re fine

Verse 2
The past is just a shadow
That forgets to fade away
But you’ve learned to sit beside it
Without asking it to stay
The body carries silence
The spirit holds the map
And somewhere in the distance
Is the tower you’ll unwrap

Verse 3
Not every road is glory
Some are made of bone and dust
But the soul keeps finding music
In the ones it dares to trust
And though the nights are longer
And the stars don’t always speak
You’ve learned that being broken
Doesn’t mean you’re weak

Bridge
Some call it truth
Some call it pain
But you call it walking
Through the unknown with no shame

Final Chorus
Before the climb
You rest, but you don’t sleep
You don’t turn back
But you don’t dive deep
You just breathe in the silence
And carry the sound
Of the life you are building
From the ground
