Footprint In the Static

FOOTPRINT IN THE STATIC

verse 1
You were looking for a spark
from someone standing higher,
a voice in the thunder,
a name the world would chant.

But the warmth you needed
was sitting right beside you,
quiet hands,
steady breath,
no spotlight,
just here.

pre-chorus
No blame in the moment,
just the truth in the air.
The ones who stay near
carry more weight
than the ones on the hill.

chorus
Maybe the footprints that last
aren’t carved in stone,
aren’t painted gold,
aren’t sung by crowds.

Maybe it’s the quiet kind—
two people in the static
holding each other steady
when everything shakes.

Connection outlives legends,
every time.

verse 2
Some people tilt
when life hits them sideways.
Their voice gets sharp,
their shoulders strange,
their warmth slips out of place.

Not a flaw,
not a warning—
just a person shifting
under the weight
they never said aloud.

And still,
you stay.

pre-chorus 2
No crowns,
no heroes,
just hands
catching each other
before the fall.

chorus 2
Maybe the stories we wrote
about saviors and thunder
missed what really saves us—
the ones who stay close
when we’re shaking.

Connection outlives the myth.
Connection returns.
Connection remains.
Even here.

bridge
You don’t need a hero
to walk you through the dark.
You just need someone
who doesn’t disappear
when the static gets loud.

And maybe that’s the real miracle—
not a savior,
just someone choosing
to stay.

final chorus
Maybe our footprint
isn’t a legend.
Maybe it’s presence.
The quiet way
we hold each other
in the noise.

Connection outlives everything
built on crowns.

outro
Stay close.
Stay real.
Leave warmth
where you walk.
