[Verse]
(A soft and introspective opening with fingerpicked guitar and ambient tones, creating a reflective and slow-wake-up feeling.)
Start the day, but take it slow
Memories fall like leaves below
Mind too heavy, weight too high
Realign, keep moving by

[Pre-Chorus]
Trace the plans I thought I knew
Filter out what still feels true
Chase the words, rewrite the past
If it’s built to last, I’ll make it last

[Chorus]
Mapping steps, I draw the line
Echoes fade, I leave behind
The road keeps rolling, so do I
And I’m still alive

[Chorus Outro]
Ohhh, I keep moving forward, moving forward…

[Verse]
Skies up north, the city fades
Cold wind bites, but I’m awake
Fires burn, the laughter stays
Time won’t wait, but that’s okay

[Bridge]
If I slow down, would it be enough?
If I let go, would I lose too much?
Every mile’s a lesson learned
And every road still takes its turn

[Chorus]
Mapping steps, I draw the line
Letting go, but keeping time
The echoes fade, they don’t rewind
The road keeps rolling, and I’m alive

[Chorus Outro]
Ohhh, I keep moving forward, moving forward…

[Outro]
Maybe I’ll look back, maybe I won’t
Either way, the road still goes
