The prompt

A tender soul track blending gospel with high energy and a swung feel at 111 BPM. The low end is electric bass playing root-note anchored, under an acoustic drum kit with a clap-layered snare and sparse dark cymbals. Grand piano carries the harmony, block chords. The arrangement follows verse-chorus with a bridge. A full-voiced female vocal delivers a smooth and melismatic performance. Analog hiss adds texture, with a slapback delay on the vocal. Mixed in a clean and spacious style, foregrounding harmonic warmth and atmospheric space, built on chromatic and shifting chords, leaving a calm and settled atmosphere.
