Verse 1
It’s easy to love when the road stay smooth,
When the smiles come quick and the skies stay blue.
But what about nights when the trust feel thin,
When forgiveness heavy and the pride kicks in?
I been there, fists tight, jaw clenched,
Heart screaming “run,” faith saying “stay present.”
Ego wanna talk, fear wanna lead,
But love costs more when it’s what you need.
Hook
I choose love when it’s not convenient,
When my feelings loud but my soul stay decent.
I choose love when the hurt still fresh,
When walking away would be easier, yes.
I choose love—ain’t weak, that’s power,
Standing tall in the hardest hour.
Verse 2
Everybody tough when the lights stay on,
Everybody brave when the storm gone.
But love in the fire, love in the strain,
Love when it means stepping into pain.
I could clap back, I could shut down,
Build my walls, let the silence sound.
But I seen what hate always leaves behind—
Empty hands and a heavy mind.
Hook
I choose love when it don’t feel right,
When my heart gotta fight my pride.
I choose love when the words cut deep,
When my peace costs more than I wanna spend.
I choose love—over being right,
Over winning fights I’d lose my life.
Bridge (half-time, reflective)
Love ain’t soft, love ain’t blind,
Love is courage in real time.
Love says “pause,” love says “breathe,”
Love sees more than what you see.
Verse 3
I’m not perfect, never claimed that crown,
Still learning how to lay weapons down.
Every scar taught me what it means
To break the cycle, not repeat the scene.
If the world spinning mean and cold,
Then love’s the heat that keeps us whole.
Final Hook (lift)
I choose love when it’s not easy,
When the past still tries to read me.
I choose love—no disguise,
Truth in my walk, peace in my eyes.
I choose love, yeah I stand on that,
Even when it’s heavy, even when it’s facts.
Outro
Love ain’t the fallback…
It’s the frontline.
