The round of ascent

Intro: Verse 1 Across this field — in black, or maybe white. You’ve got to make your choice right now. This moment’s here — step on the gas! Don’t freeze in midair, don’t hide your eyes. Don’t stand too close to the edge: the ground won’t slip away, ’Cause everyone paints their own height. Chorus The round of ascent doesn’t argue, It reaches for the light, not for the praise. All that’s not important stays beyond the edge, Countless “bravo” fuels the fire inside. Others’ judgments are far from perfect — Break the frame, tear down the old facade! Verse 2 Even if they say, “That just can’t be,” You’re not the same person you were yesterday. A little more meaning — you’ve changed the halls, Louder sound at the turn — just let it go. Everything that came before stays behind your back. Write the beginning line by line. Chorus The round of ascent doesn’t argue, It reaches for the light, not for the praise. All that’s not important stays beyond the edge, Countless “bravo” fuels the fire inside. Others’ judgments are far from perfect — Break the frame, tear down the old facade! Bridge Enough with all the rules and every “you can’t.” Learn to just be, not to play a part. What’s extra fades from the noise like smoke, What matters will stay with you — it won’t go. Whatever held you like a prisoner’s chain Don’t carry that weight: it’ll sink to the bottom. Chorus The round of ascent doesn’t argue, It reaches for the light, not for the praise. All that’s not important stays beyond the edge, Countless “bravo” fuels the fire inside. Others’ judgments are far from perfect — Break the frame, tear down the old facade! Outro:
