Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1] There were nights the world went quiet Like it didn’t need me here Every road felt hollow Every future felt unclear But then I’d hear your laughter Or remember your face And something in my chest would say Stay [Pre-Chorus] Not because it’s easy Not because it’s fair But because love Still lives here [Chorus] I stay because of you Every single one Five hearts that tied me To the rising sun When the dark says “let go” I hear your names And I stay I stay [Verse 2] You don’t see the battles I fight behind my eyes The way I choose breathing On the hardest nights I don’t carry you like weight I carry you like truth You remind me who I am When I forget it too [Pre-Chorus] You didn’t save me You remind me Why I save myself [Chorus] I stay because of you Because love still calls me back Five reasons to keep choosing When the road goes black I don’t stay out of fear I stay out of flame I stay I stay [Bridge] One day you’ll live your own lives And I won’t stand at the center But know this — You were never my burden You were my tether You didn’t replace my will You awakened it [Final Chorus] I stay because of you But I live because I can Because you showed me I still matter as I am If the world ever tells you I was weak or afraid Know this — I stayed And that was strength [Outro] I’m still here I’m still choosing I’m still breathing And every beat of my heart Carries you — not as my only reason, but as my reminder that life is worth staying for
