About This Track

‘Human’ by John Summit is a 2021 track with lyrics that focus on keeping calm while seeking closeness, including a repeated invitation to “meet in the middle”. The vocal imagery is intimate and tactile, with lines about touch and about someone’s thoughts repeatedly returning. The mood is gently persuasive, even as the words acknowledge inner conflict, framing the moment as a meeting point between two people and whatever emotions are trying to surface. The structure moves from breath-led phrasing into verses and a pre-chorus that keep circling the same emotional point.

"Human" is a single by John Summit, released 24th November 2021. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 1 article about John Summit.

Lyrics

Human

[Intro]

Breathe

[Verse 1]

Stay calm for a little (Breathe)

'Til you find me

Let's meet in the middle (Breathe)

Run your hands up and down me

[Pre-Chorus]

And I've been on your mind (Breathe)

Haven't I lately?

And you've been trying to fight (Breathe)

Whatever you're feeling, feeling

[Chorus]

Let me show you what it means to be human

To be wanted, to be vulnerable

Let me show you what it means to be human

To be helpless, and emotional

Let me show you what it means to be human

Whatever you want to, do it with me

What it means to be human

[Post-Chorus]

Let me show you what it means to be human

Let me show you what it means to be human

Whatever you want to, do it with me

What it means to be human

(Breathe)

[Verse 2]

Stay calm for a minute (Breathe)

Heart beating like crazy

Let's dance for a little (Breathe)

Move yourself up against me

[Pre-Chorus]

And I've been on your mind (Breathe)

Haven't I lately?

And you've been trying to fight (Breathe)

Whatever you're feeling, feeling

[Chorus]

Let me show you what it means to be human

To be wanted, to be vulnerable

Let me show you what it means to be human

To be helpless, and emotional

Let me show you what it means to be human

Whatever you want to, do it with me

What it means to be human

[Outro]

Let me show you what it means to be human
