You were little, holding my hand
While the world was louder than I planned
I was learning how to stand
And you were watching, trying to understand
I didn’t always have the words
Didn’t always get it right
But you stayed, you never turned
Even on my hardest nights
Pre-Chorus
You saw the cracks before the crown
You saw me fall, you saw me fight
If you ever doubt yourself now
Let me say it plain tonight
Chorus
You are worth more than you feel
More than mirrors ever show
More than scars, more than fear
More than anything you don’t know
You don’t have to earn your place
Or prove your heart is gold
You are enough just as you are
More than you’ll ever know
Verse 2
You grew quiet when you hurt
Carried weight that wasn’t yours
Trying to be strong too early
Trying not to ask for more
But I see the fire in your soul
Even when you hide the flame
You don’t owe the world control
You don’t have to carry pain
Pre-Chorus
If the voice inside gets cruel
If you start to disappear
Borrow mine until you’re through
I will always be right here
Chorus
You are worth more than you feel
More than shadows let you see
More than every careless word
That tried to steal your peace
You don’t have to break to grow
Or bleed to be made whole
You are loved beyond your doubt
More than you’ll ever know
Bridge
One day you’ll look back and see
The strength you wore so quietly
And I hope when that day comes
You’ll hear my voice, remember me
Saying—
You don’t have to be perfect
You don’t have to be brave
Just be you, just stay soft
In a world that begs you to change
Final Chorus
You are worth more than you feel
More than every high and low
More than the tears you cry alone
When no one else would know
I’m so proud of who you are
And who you’re still becoming, too
My first heartbeat, my first home
Every part of me loves you
Outro
So when the night feels heavy
And you don’t know what to do
Remember this—
I survived because of you
