Verse 1
Yeah…
Walking through a city full of noise and neon lights
People moving fast but nobody making eye contact
Heavy thoughts riding shotgun every single night
Trying to breathe easy but the world won’t let me relax
Kids growing up learning fear before hope
Big talk from people who never had to cope
They say stay strong, keep your head high
But strength feels different when you’re asking why
I reach out, feels like I’m reaching through smoke
Good intentions breaking under pressure till they choke
Looking up like, does anybody notice?
Silence in the air like the pain just owns us
If there’s a reason, why can’t I see it?
Why’s doing right always feel defeated?
Tell me my voice matters, tell me it’s enough
Cause lately even breathing feels rough
Hook
If You’re up there, why’s it feel so quiet?
Why’s the hurt so loud and no one fighting it?
I keep praying but the sky stays silent
Trying to keep faith when the world feels violent
They tell me trust, but I don’t understand
How we fall apart right here where we stand
I’m just one voice trying to make sense of it all
Why do I feel so small… so small?
Verse 2
Scrolling through a world that’s burning slow
Truth gets buried where the algorithms go
Everybody shouting from a higher ground
Nobody listening when the hurt gets loud
I keep asking what I’m supposed to be
When the weight of the world sits on me
Hands full of questions, heart full of doubt
Trying to believe there’s a way out
Maybe change don’t come from being loud
Maybe it starts when we see through the crowd
Maybe one honest line can break a chain
Even if it starts with admitting pain
I’m no hero, just trying to stand still
Holding onto hope like it’s fragile and real
If I’m small, maybe that’s alright
Small sparks still survive the night
Bridge (quiet — almost whispered)
If my voice shakes… I’ll still speak
If my legs break… I’ll still reach
Maybe strength isn’t never falling down
Maybe it’s getting up without a sound
Final Hook (bigger emotion)
If You’re up there, why’s it feel so quiet?
Why’s the hurt so loud and no one fighting it?
I keep praying but the sky stays silent
Trying to keep faith when the world feels violent
They tell me trust, but I don’t understand
How we fall apart right here where we stand
I’m just one voice trying to make sense of it all
Why do I feel so small… so small?
Outro — (spoken, almost breaking)
Look up to the sky one last time, I wonder if it all is just a lie…
(Final chorus lot of emotion)
If You’re up there, why’s it feel so quiet?
Why’s the hurt so loud and no one fighting it?
I keep praying but the sky stays silent
Trying to keep faith when the world feels violent
They tell me trust, but I don’t understand
How we fall apart right here where we stand
I’m just one voice trying to make sense of it all
Why do I feel so small… so small?
