Breaking Free, Holding On

I’ve been carrying weight I shouldn’t bear,

Trying to love someone who isn’t there.

The silence screams louder than words can say,

And I can’t find myself in the mess we made.

(Pre-Chorus)

I wanted to stay, to fix, to fight,

But my heart knows when it’s no longer right.

I’m scared of leaving, scared of the fall,

But staying too long won’t save us at all.

(Chorus)

I’m breaking free, I’m holding on,

To the love for my children, to the light of dawn.

I can’t erase myself, can’t stay unseen,

I’m finding my voice, I’m living my dream.

(Verse 2)

I’ve walked through guilt, through fear and shame,

Felt responsible for what isn’t my blame.

I’ve planned in silence, packed in my mind,

A safe place to breathe, a life to find.

(Pre-Chorus 2)

I care, but I can’t be the only one,

I’m choosing my peace, I’m letting the sun

Shine on my face, and my children’s too,

We deserve safety, love that’s true.

(Chorus)

I’m breaking free, I’m holding on,

To the love for my children, to the light of dawn.

I can’t erase myself, can’t stay unseen,

I’m finding my voice, I’m living my dream.

(Bridge)

It’s not betrayal, it’s not the end,

It’s courage, it’s survival, it’s love that mends.

I step with faith, I step with care,

We’ll rise above, breathe fresh air.

(Chorus/Outro)

I’m breaking free, I’m holding on,

To the love for my children, to the light of dawn.

I can’t erase myself, can’t stay unseen,

I’m finding my voice, I’m living my dream.
