Leaving Fear Behind

Verse 1

I’m not who I was, but I’m not there yet,

Still learning how to carry grace and regret.

Every scar’s a line in the story I tell,

Not where I failed—where I learned to dwell.

I’ve shed some skin, let some old dreams die,

Watched truth grow strong where the ego cried.

If growth feels slow, I’ve learned the reason—

You don’t rush becoming.

Pre-Chorus

This road ain’t straight, it bends and breathes,

Every step asks more of me.

Chorus

I’m becoming—one faithful step at a time,

Letting go of fear, learning how to climb.

Not chasing perfection, just choosing what’s true,

Letting love remake what I thought I knew.

I’m becoming—through the fire, through the wait,

Trusting the hands shaping every break.

I’m not finished, I’m still on my way,

Becoming who I was always meant to be.

Verse 2

Some lessons only come with age,

Some truths don’t show till you turn the page.

I’ve carried the weight of trying to prove,

Only to find rest in the simple do.

I’ve learned that strength can look like peace,

And real courage knows when to release.

If the silence feels heavy this season,

It’s doing its work—be patient with becoming.

Pre-Chorus

Every stumble, every stand,

Is shaping a steadier man.

Chorus

I’m becoming—slow and steady now,

Trading all my why’s for a sacred how.

Not louder, faster, bigger, or bright—

Just anchored deep in a truer light.

I’m becoming—day by day,

Letting mercy have the final say.

I’m not finished, I’m still on my way,

Becoming who I was always meant to be.

Bridge

This isn’t loss, it’s holy change,

A deeper yes, a wider range.

What’s falling off was never me,

What’s rising now feels honest, free.

I trust the process, I trust the pain—

Nothing wasted in becoming.

(Lift)

So I breathe in grace…

And keep moving.

Final Chorus

I’m becoming—with open hands,

Letting God write what I can’t plan.

Not defined by where I’ve been,

But by the love I’m walking in.

I’m becoming—stronger, kind,

Leaving old fear further behind.

I’m not finished, I’m still on my way,

Becoming…

Becoming…

Who I was always meant to be.

Outro

Still becoming.
