The ballad of Kairos

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There was a man named Kairos,
Mending the clocks on the wall.
Fixing every broken timepiece,
Thinking time belonged to all.
"Maybe later," became his anthem,
"After this, I'll start to live."
Counting moments like possessions,
Never knowing they don't exist.

[Pre-Chorus]
An old clock waited in the silence,
Though every gear was turning true.
A widow whispered, "It stopped the moment
His lesson here was through."

[Chorus]
**There is no time—only this becoming.**
**No future calling, no past that's running.**
**Every choice reflects the world you see.**
**Heaven isn't somewhere... it's who you choose to be.**

[Verse 2]
He wound the clock, but something deeper
Started moving in his soul.
Not the pendulum before him—
But the part he'd left untold.
He found his daughter, called old brothers,
Walked the shore he'd never known.
Life had never been delayed...
Only waiting to be shown.

[Bridge]
The mind buries yesterday.
Then it invents tomorrow.
But the soul has never left
The everlasting Now we play.

[Final Chorus]
**There is no time—only this becoming.**
**Every heartbeat is creation humming.**
**You don't spend your life—you dream it into view.**
**The world remembers not your years... but what awakened through you.**

[Outro]
The clocks kept ticking through the night,
As if they'd never known his name.
For time was only ever the costume—
Consciousness the only game.
The hands went on, but Kairos smiled...
He was never born, and never died.
