THE DAY THE LIGHT DIED (Track 1 — Full Song) [Intro] Yeah… Funny how one moment can split your whole life in half. Before and after. Light and dark. Hope and whatever this is. I remember it too well. [Verse 1] I was standin’ in the doorway, heart froze, mind blank, Tryna breathe through the panic while the walls all sank. Phone buzzed, bad news, felt the floor give way, Like God hit pause on my life that day. I ain’t proud of the man that I turned into, Pain hit deep, so I ran from the truth. Bottle in my hand like it owed me somethin’, But it never filled the hole, it just kept me numb and— Everybody lookin’ at me like “Where you at?” But I was buried in the shadows tryna crawl back. Lost faith, lost hope, lost every good thing, And the mirror kept showin’ me a man I didn’t wanna be. [Pre‑Chorus] I swear I tried to hold on, but the grip got weak, And the darkness whispered louder every time I’d speak. I ain’t break in a moment — I broke over time, But that day was the line. [Chorus] That was the day the light died, The moment everything changed in my life. I fell hard, hit the bottom of the night, And I couldn’t find God though I swear I tried. Yeah, that was the day the light died, But somehow I’m still standin’ on the other side. Broken, but breathin’, wounded, but fightin’, Tryna find the spark in the ashes of my life and— Yeah… that was the day the light died. [Verse 2] People think pain fades when the moment is gone, But some storms stay with you long after they’re done. I carried every memory like a chain on my chest, Every “should’ve,” every “could’ve,” every “why’d I do that?” I was drownin’ in regret, couldn’t come up for air, And the devil kept sayin’ “Ain’t nobody care.” But he lied — like he always does — I just couldn’t hear love through the noise in my blood. I pushed people away, said “I’m fine,” but I wasn’t, Actin’ like a man when my soul felt crushed in. I ain’t ask for help ‘cause I didn’t wanna need it, But you can’t heal a wound if you won’t let it bleed first. [Pre‑Chorus] I swear I tried to hold on, but the grip got weak, And the darkness whispered louder every time I’d speak. I ain’t break in a moment — I broke over time, But that day was the line. [Chorus] That was the day the light died, The moment everything changed in my life. I fell hard, hit the bottom of the night, And I couldn’t find God though I swear I tried. Yeah, that was the day the light died, But somehow I’m still standin’ on the other side. Broken, but breathin’, wounded, but fightin’, Tryna find the spark in the ashes of my life and— Yeah… that was the day the light died. [Bridge] But maybe light don’t die — maybe it hides, Waitin’ for the moment you’re ready to rise. Maybe God never left, maybe I just closed my eyes, Maybe grace ain’t gone, it’s just quiet sometimes. [Final Chorus] That was the day the light died, But it wasn’t the end of my life. I fell hard, but I learned how to climb, And I found God again in the cracks of the night. Yeah, th
