Loud in the Quiet

[Intro] Yeah, yeah, yeah Lights flicker in the hallway of my mind [Verse 1] I learned to breathe when the ceiling pressed down on me Concrete knees, I stand tall, I refuse to flee Masks on, hearts bare, I spill what I feel Pain scripted in my ribs, but hope is the real deal I scribble verses on the walls of all my doubts Every scar a mentor, every tear a loud shout [Chorus] Wanna be heard, so I speak in louder tones Through the storm I walk, I’m finding my own zone If love is a anchor, I’m cutting the rope I rise from the wreckage, I’m learning to hope [Verse 2] Friends fade like subway lights in the rain But I keep my promise to the kid in my brain I’m stacking small victories, cent by cent Breathing through the fear, choosing truth over the vent I carry the weight, but I won’t crumble into ash Turn the pain into purpose, make the moment last [Chorus] Wanna be heard, so I speak in louder tones Through the storm I walk, I’m finding my own zone If love is a anchor, I’m cutting the rope I rise from the wreckage, I’m learning to hope [Bridge] If the night forgets my name, I’ll write it on the dawn With every breath I claim a future I belong [Chorus] Wanna be heard, so I speak in louder tones Through the storm I walk, I’m finding my own zone If love is a anchor, I’m cutting the rope I rise from the wreckage, I’m learning to hope [Outro] Yeah, I’m still here, I’m still here The echo in my chest keeps me near
