Prompt
An uplifting arena pop anthem with a soaring male lead vocal and a huge stadium sing-along chorus. Punchy four-on-the-floor kick drums, bright stacked synth stabs, shimmering reverb-washed pads, and anthemic "whoa-oh-oh" backing chants from a crowd-style choir. Intro builds with filtered synth and a single piano motif, verses ride a driving bassline with handclaps on 2 and 4, pre-chorus lifts with a rising snare roll and white-noise sweep into a massive, euphoric, festival-ready chorus. After the second chorus, a stripped-back bridge with vocal-and-piano emotional beat, then a half-step key change LIFT into a final, even bigger last chorus with doubled vocals, extra "whoa-oh" gang vocals, and full drum-and-synth wall-of-sound production. Radio-polished modern pop mix, bright and wide, 120-128 BPM, in the lineage of Coldplay, The Killers, OneRepublic, Imagine Dragons stadium anthems.
Lyrics
[Intro] Filtered breath in the dark One piano note Then the room starts to spark Whoa oh oh Whoa oh oh [Verse 1] You came in worn and brave With a crack in your smile Carried that heavy heart For a dangerous mile Now your hands are shaking But you still stay here And I can see the fire Through the disappear [Pre-Chorus] So take a deeper breath Feel that pulse in your chest We are not done yet No, we are not done yet The ceiling starts to rise When you look up high Oh, we are not done yet No, we are not done yet [Chorus] Hold the sky Hold the sky We’re alive tonight Hold the sky Hold the sky Sing it back, don’t hide Whoa oh oh Whoa oh oh We can touch forever Hold the sky [Verse 2] Shadows on the pavement Rain on your sleeves Every little scar Is a story that breathes You been counting losses Like they’re all you’ve got But I see the comeback Written in your blood [Pre-Chorus] So take a deeper breath Feel that pulse in your chest We are not done yet No, we are not done yet The ceiling starts to rise When you look up high Oh, we are not done yet No, we are not done yet [Chorus] Hold the sky Hold the sky We’re alive tonight Hold the sky Hold the sky Sing it back, don’t hide Whoa oh oh Whoa oh oh We can touch forever Hold the sky [Bridge] [Strip back] Just you and this beat of your heart And the names you never said out loud I’ll stay right here when it falls apart Till your voice comes back around [Final Chorus] Hold the sky Hold the sky We’re alive tonight Hold the sky Hold the sky Sing it back, don’t hide Whoa oh oh Whoa oh oh We can touch forever Hold the sky Hold the sky Hold the sky We’re alive tonight Whoa oh oh Whoa oh oh Hold the sky
