Punch Through

[beatboxing intro]

[Verse 1 - minimalist]
I wake with a plan on a scrap by the sink
Six little boxes and no time to think
The first one gets done, then the room starts to tilt
A hand on the brake where the drive should be built

I answer one message, then circle the page
The clock keeps its teeth and I tighten the cage
I know what I'm worth, but the proof won't arrive
So I push at the day just to feel it alive

[Pre-Chorus - Epic buildup]
There is a wall in the middle of me
Painted with every reason I should leave
But I can hear something beyond the stone
Calling my name like it knows I'm home

[Chorus]
Punch through, punch through
Even when my hands go numb
Punch through, punch through
I am not what fear has done
One more hit, one more try
Let the dust fall from the sky
Punch through, punch through
I keep moving till I come undone

[Verse 2]
The report sits open, the cursor won't move
My shoulders are locked in a borrowed groove
I wash the same cup while the deadline grows
Then count every failure nobody knows

A door can look solid from where I stand
But cracks start small under a stubborn hand
No trumpet, no proof, no clean victory
Just one more inch that belongs to me

[Pre-Chorus]
There is a wall in the middle of me
Built from the moments I refused to see
But I can hear something beyond the stone
Saying the way out is made of my own

[Chorus]
Punch through, punch through
Even when my hands go numb
Punch through, punch through
I am not what fear has done
One more hit, one more try
Let the dust fall from the sky
Punch through, punch through
I keep moving till I come undone

[Bridge]
If I stop, let me stop without calling it defeat
Let the floor hold steady underneath my feet
Then I will stand, not because the fear is gone
But because the next small thing is still mine to carry on

[Final Chorus]
Punch through, punch through
Hear the hollow answer back
Punch through, punch through
Find the weak line in the black
One more hit, one more try
No permission, no alibi
Punch through, punch through
There is daylight in the smallest crack

[Outro]
One more line
One more page
One more hand against the weight
I keep trying
I stay here
I can make a doorway appear
