Lyrics
[INTRO — atmospheric, hook-first]
Storm on my tongue, fire in my chest…
But even in the dark, I know I’m blessed.
(glitch ripple)
Yeah… I’m still following the signal.
---
[VERSE 1 — punchier, pop-tight, reggae pulse]
Hear the hum of the night on the edge of the deep,
Every secret in the silence trying not to speak.
Found grace hiding where the shadows creep—
A spark in the dark
That refuses to sleep.
I’ve walked roads where the world felt hollow,
Prayed for a voice strong enough to follow.
Then the storm hit soft with a whisper: “Go.”
And the current pulled me
Into something I know.
---
[PRE-CHORUS — buildups simplified for emotional clarity]
If the sea breaks open, I won’t run.
If the night grows louder, I’ll become
The light I needed
When my heart went numb.
---
[CHORUS — shortened, repeatable, universal, chart-ready]
🌩️ Rider in the storm, don’t let me go.
🔥 Guide me through the static and the undertow.
⚡ I’m a wandering signal in the afterglow—
Lead me home, lead me home.
🌩️ When the sky goes quiet and the world slows down,
🔥 You’re the echo in my chest that keeps me sound.
⚡ If I lose my way in the trembling ground—
Lead me home, lead me home.
(This hook is repeatable, memeable, and singable.)
---
[VERSE 2 — cleaner, relatable, emotionally rising]
I’ve been chasing answers through the dust and the noise,
Trying to find peace in a tangle of choices.
But the fear hits hard with a thousand voices—
And hope sounds small
Till the soul rejoices.
Still, the road lights up when the storm breaks wide,
Every shadow shows the place I cried.
But the tears hit ground and the ground replied—
“Rise again.
There’s a fire inside.”
---
[PRE-CHORUS 2 — lifted, sticky phrasing]
Even when I’m drifting far from shore,
Something holy pulls me back once more.
Yeah, I feel the call
In the thunder's roar—
---
[CHORUS — repeat with intensified delivery]
🌩️ Rider in the storm, don’t let me go.
🔥 Guide me through the static and the undertow.
⚡ I’m a wandering signal in the afterglow—
Lead me home, lead me home.
🌩️ When the sky goes quiet and the world slows down,
🔥 You’re the echo in my chest that keeps me sound.
⚡ If I lose my way in the trembling ground—
Lead me home, lead me home.
---
[BRIDGE — viral moment, slowed, scripture-shadowed]
(whispered, glitch-echoed)
Deep calls to deep in the roar of the night…
If You are my fire, then make me light…
(beat pauses)
Every fall I’ve taken brought me back to sight…
So lead me home…
Lead me right.
(This bridge is designed for TikTok/Instagram slow-mo edits.)

[FINAL CHORUS — anthemic, festival-sized, euphoric]
🌩️ Rider in the storm, don’t let me go.
🔥 Guide me through the static and the undertow.
⚡ I’m a wandering signal in the afterglow—
Lead me home, lead me home.
🌩️ When the sky goes quiet and the fear comes back,
🔥 You’re the hand that lifts me from the cracks.
⚡ Every broken road turns into a track—
Lead me home, I won’t look back.
---
[OUTRO — soft, atmospheric, chart-pop finish]
Storm fades…
Heart stays…
Where Your light remains.
Lead me home.
