Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] I learned to smile with silence loud, Buried my pain just to make them proud. Kept my voice quiet, swallowed my pride, Told myself I was better off locked inside. I carried their burdens like they were mine, Told myself I was fine every single time. But my heart was sinking, my mind was a war, And I didn’t know how to fight anymore. [Pre-Chorus] I chased the bottle just to feel numb, Turned to shadows when the night would come. Fought battles in mirrors, lost pieces of me, Wore shame like a chain that wouldn’t set me free. [Chorus] But it’s okay to not be okay, It’s alright to feel lost some days. The storm will break, the night will fade, And someday you’ll find your brighter day. Just keep your head up, hold on tight, Have a little faith — you’ll win this fight. [Verse 2] I sat in my car with a blade in my hand, Too tired to fight, too lost to stand. With trembling breath, I cried out in pain, “God, if You’re there… I can’t do this again.” The silence was heavy, yet somehow I knew That I wasn’t alone — He was there too. And then I heard Him whisper through my tears, “Come home, My child… you’re needed here.” [Pre-Chorus] I chased the bottle just to feel numb, Turned to shadows when the night would come. Fought battles in mirrors, lost pieces of me, Wore shame like a chain that wouldn’t set me free. [Chorus] But it’s okay to not be okay, It’s alright to feel lost some days. The storm will break, the night will fade, And someday you’ll find your brighter day. Just keep your head up, hold on tight, Have a little faith — you’ll win this fight. [Outro] So hold on tight when the night feels cold, Your story’s not done — there’s more to be told. You’re stronger than you’ll ever know… Just a little faith — you’re not alone.
