Fates Always Running Late

Verse 1

There’s no such thing as accidents

Just dominoes in disguise

Every wrong turn I ever took

Was waitin’ there all my life

You call it luck, I call it rent

On a debt I hadn’t paid

Yeah every ghost that ever showed up

Knew my name before I did

Pre-Chorus

You can curse the sky

You can blame the rain

But every storm’s got paperwork

Filed in your name

Chorus

There’s no such thing — there’s a reason for everything

Every scar’s got a story it made

You can run from truth, you can fight the proof

But it’s all gonna land someday

You can pray on time, you can beg the sign

You can shout at heaven’s gate

But destiny don’t hurry for nobody

And fate’s always runnin’ late

Verse 2

Met a girl I swore was random

In a bar I shouldn’t be

She said, “Funny how you found me

Like you ordered misery”

Every goodbye felt sudden

Every heartbreak felt unfair

But the clock was tickin’ long before

I ever met her there

Pre-Chorus

We think we choose

We think we steer

But half the road was paved for us

Before we got here

Chorus

There’s no such thing — there’s a reason for everything

Every scar’s got a story it made

You can run from truth, you can fight the proof

But it’s all gonna land someday

You can pray on time, you can beg the sign

You can shout at heaven’s gate

But destiny don’t hurry for nobody

And fate’s always runnin’ late

Bridge

Maybe fate’s just slow on purpose

Likes to watch us squirm

Lets us think we beat the system

Then hands us what we earned

Yeah timing’s got a twisted grin

And patience ain’t my trait

But the bill comes due eventually —

Fate’s just runnin’ late

Final Chorus (lift it)

There’s no such thing — there’s a reason for everything

Even the mess I made

Every fall, every call I ignored

Was just another page

You can curse the sky, but time don’t lie

And truth don’t hesitate

It might miss your birthday party —

But fate don’t forget the date

Suno was drunk on the first 2 lines of the first chorus tho. (does that to me all the time)
