Here Right Now

Lyrics

I don't need a cabin in the woods I need ten minutes with my own breath I need to feel my feet on the floor Before I let the world in my head I open the window, I make some tea I hear a neighbor's car stretch the dawn It's not romantic, it's not a movie It's just the day, turning on

So I practice like it matters Because it does I look at what's in front of me Without rushing past it I don't have to fix my life today I just have to meet it And if I forget, I come back and say - I'm here right now

I keep a small notebook, not for goals Just for noticing what's real A line about the way light hit the table A line about how my shoulders feel I take a walk and leave my phone behind Not as a rule, as a choice I like I'm learning the difference between being alone And being with myself That's the whole hike

Some days it's easy Some days it's not But I'm starting to trust The return more than the spark

So I practice like it matters Because it does I look at what's in front of me Without rushing past it I don't have to fix my life today I just have to meet it And if I forget, I come back and say - I'm here right now

The world will keep yelling And I don't hate it for that I just don't want to live Inside the yelling anymore I want to be a person With a pulse and a pace Not a reaction Not a feed Not a chase

So I practice like it matters Because it does I look at what's in front of me Without rushing past it I don't have to fix my life today I just have to meet it And if I forget, I come back and say - I'm here right now

(soft) Here right now (mm) Here right now
