Verse 1:
I’ve been trying to find a way out
Tired of feeling like I’m stuck now
Standing still in a moving crowd
All I want is space to breathe and figure it out
Heart’s racing, hands shaking
I just wanna stop breaking
Wanna feel like I’m making
Something real out of the mess I’ve been facing

Instrumental Break:

Pre-Chorus:
Looking at myself
Just wanna know I’m still alive (still alive!)
Got some weight I need to shake (need to shake it)
I’ve been quiet, now I’m wide awake
Feels like the world is pulling me in
Don’t know where to start, but I’ll begin (begin)
Even when fear starts to surround—

I’ve learned I gotta lean on me
When no one else believes in what I see
Life comes hard, it doesn’t wait
But I’m not folding, not today
I feel the wind begin to turn
I’ve got a fire that starts to burn
Not for war, not for pride
But for the peace I hold inside
I’m done watching from the side
This is my time, this is my fight

Pre-Chorus:
Looking at myself
Just wanna know I’m still alive (still alive!)
Got some weight I need to shake (need to shake it)
I’ve been quiet, now I’m wide awake
Feels like the world is pulling me in
Don’t know where to start, but I’ll begin (begin)
Even when fear starts to surround—

Outro:
It’s not about being loud
It’s not about being tough
It’s about not giving up
Even when life gets rough
No more waiting around—
I just wanna hold my ground
