[Intro]
Soft rain on a broken street, I count the steps I’ve walked alone
Breath comes slow, the night learns my name, in the quiet I’m not unknown
[Verse 1]
I wore my mistakes like a heavy coat, the winter kept them close
But the door to dawn creaked open, and I learned to breathe through the ghost
Each scar a compass, pointing home to duty and grace
I rose from the ashes with a quieter fire burning on my face
[Pre-Chorus]
If I fall again, I’ll fall with mercy, I’ll rise with truth
From the rubble I gather grace, from the past I pull my proof
[Chorus]
I carry the weight, and let it turn to light
Scarred hands, steady heart, I’m choosing to ignite
In stillness I find strength, in quiet I hear my worth
Every mark a badge of honor, proving I am more than birth
[Verse 2]
The world keeps rushing by, but I slow to hear my own rain
The patience of the earth teaches me to tend what remains
Bad days become gardens where resilience grows unseen
I’m learning to bless the miles on my skin, and what they mean
[Pre-Chorus]
If I fall again, I’ll fall with mercy, I’ll rise with truth
From the rubble I gather grace, from the past I pull my proof
[Chorus]
I carry the weight, and let it turn to light
Scarred hands, steady heart, I’m choosing to ignite
In stillness I find strength, in quiet I hear my worth
Every mark a badge of honor, proving I am more than birth
[Bridge]
Let the quiet teach me how to glow from inside out
Old wounds become road signs when doubt starts to shout
[Chorus]
I carry the weight, and let it turn to light
Scarred hands, steady heart, I’m choosing to ignite
In stillness I find strength, in quiet I hear my worth
Every mark a badge of honor, proving I am more than birth
[Outro]
And if the night returns, I’ll stand with calm resolve
For every fall I’ve known has birthed a brighter resolve
