Lyrics
My alarm goes off, I hit snooze twice Scroll my phone, take bad advice Everybody's got a five-year plan I'm still learning how to be a man One friend's married with a fenced-in yard One's crypto rich, one's working too hard I'm on the shore with the second handboard Trying to find a life I can't afford Some days I feel behind the ray
Puts me back in play So I got no map, just waves One small boat and a heart that stays I don't know where this whole thing goes I just paddle out when the trade wind blows If I end up broke or brave At least I rode what the water gave Whistle this when the world's insane No map, just wave Let the tide explode
Let the tide explain
Mom says, baby, you should settle down Dad says, find a job, stay in one town Friends post houses and promos and pics I post sunsets and dump surf clips Some nights I wonder if I missed the train Should I trade my flip-flops for a ball and chain Then a stranger laughs at a song I've played Tips me once and it feels okay Maybe purpose ain't a dotted line Maybe it's these little borrowed times
Just waves trying to stay kind in a world that frees I don't know what I'm supposed to be I just try to leave some good behind me If I crash or if I'm saved, it leases me on the ride I've made it if you're lost to hum along don't cave No map, just waves, we'll be halfway through
They sell, aren't built for me And that's still well So I'll stack small wins like shells and stones Call old friends, answer phones If I die not only much at all Hope they say I showed up when they call
So I got no map to just sway I'm just this heartbeat and the risks I take I don't know if it's right or wrong But I'm still here, still singing this song If the future comes in suits or caves I'll still dance in the foam it lays When you're scared you're too behind to save Whistle soft, let your soul behave When the world feels heavy and you can't be brave Close your eyes
No map, just waves, earth
