Smoke & Satellites

(hummmmm) Smoke was filling every mirror,

Blurring every road ahead.

I kept chasing distant answers Through the noise inside my head.

Then I looked beyond the skyline,

Past the lights I'd always known.

Found a thousand quiet signals Leading somewhere of my own.

Every question lost its weight,

High above the clouds of doubt.

Sometimes all it takes is distance

To see what life's about.

Smoke and satellites above me,

Drawing circles through the night.

One reminds me where I've wandered,

One reminds me where there's light.

Now the world feels so much wider,

Every fear becomes so small.

From up here I finally see I was never trapped at all.

Every road became a river,

Flowing toward a different sea.

Every version left behind me Made another part of me.

Nothing vanished without purpose,

Nothing broke without a spark.

Even ashes learned to shimmer When they floated through the dark.

Every ending shifts the sky,

Every sunrise changes view.

When the smoke begins to clear,

You discover something new.

If tomorrow feels uncertain,

I'll still follow where it leads.

Stars don't question why they're shining; They simply answer what they need.

Every heartbeat is a signal,

Every dream another guide.

Home was never just a place— It was always found inside.

Smoke and satellites surround me,

Now the sky has opened wide.

Every shadow lost its power,

Every hope became my guide.

I can see beyond the distance,

Beyond the echoes of my past.

The smoke may rise and disappear,

But the stars are built to last.

Above the clouds...

Everything becomes clear.
