Lyrics:
Verse 1
Late night forms on a bright blue screen,
Questions land where fears have been.
Two roads open, same new light,
Carrier lines and cancer signs.

Pre-Chorus
It’s not just knowing names and charts,
It’s finding doors and steady hearts.
A map, a ride, a hand to hold—
That’s how the future starts to unfold.

Chorus
Give me agency, give me a way,
A clear next step when I’m afraid.
When the choice feels heavy, I can stand—
With keys in my hands, keys in my hands.

Verse 2
Voices circle close like family,
“Do it for tomorrow,” quietly.
But attitudes can twist like wire,
Even facts don’t always lift you higher.

Bridge
Build the pathways, make it real,
Not just information—help me feel
I can reach the test, I can be seen,
Turn intention into something clean.

Final Chorus
Give me agency, give me a way,
A clear next step when I’m afraid.
We don’t just hope—we make a plan,
With keys in our hands, keys in our hands.
