Give Away the Map (Alternate Version)

[Intro: melodic slap bass, clean arpeggios]

[Verse 1: playful syncopated]
I remember being lost
With a question in my hands
Someone took an afternoon
To help me understand
They didn't make me feel ashamed
Or foolish for what I couldn't name

[Pre-Chorus: ascending harmonies]
Now someone's standing where I stood
I'll give them everything I could

[Chorus: bright anthemic lift]
Give away the map
Show somebody where to go
Every little thing you've learned
Is another seed to sow
There's no shortage of horizons
There's no limit to the sky
When you help another person
Find the courage to fly

[Break: intricate bass-guitar counterpoint]

[Verse 2: warm melodic phrasing]
I shared the trick that saved me time
The failures hiding between the lines
And when they finally figured it out
Their joy became what mine's about

[Bridge: half-time, soaring]
Your success doesn't steal from me
It makes a bigger world to see

[Final Chorus: stacked vocal harmony]
Give away the map
Let the next one journey far
A kinder world is built by people
Who help others reach the stars

[Outro: melodic bass resolves]
