More Than This

I’m tired of watching life through glassLike everybody’s moving while I’m stuck in the pastGot these dreams buried under fear and doubtAnd I’m the only one that keeps dragging me down

I know there’s fire somewhere insideBut lately it feels easier to hideI’m sick of settling for surviving daysWhen deep down I was made for more than this place

Pre-Chorus

I don’t wanna just existCounting hours I barely liveThere’s a voice inside my chestSaying I haven’t seen my best yet

Chorus

I’ve put myself and everyone I love through hellBut I swear one day I’ll make my son proud as well

I want more from lifeMore from myselfI’ll fucking learn to thriveEven if I fail through hellI’m done with hiding from the woman who wants my heartDone pretending distance keeps me safe from falling apartI don’t wanna waste another year like thisHalf alive, drowning in what could’ve beenI know there’s something bigger waiting for meI just gotta become who I’m meant to be

Got demons in my head that never sleepWhispering I’m too broken to keepTrying to fight for the life I needBut I won’t let them bury me beneath

Every shadow trying to pull me downOnly makes me wanna stand my groundYeah, the battle lives inside my mindBut I know somehow I’ll still survive

Do I want more from lifeOr do I just need more from me?More courage to let goMore faith in what I could beWhy can’t I see myself the way everybody else does?Why do I only notice everything I’m not enough of?

I want more from lifeMore from myselfMore than feeling lostAnd pretending I don’t need helpI wanna feel proud when I look in the mirrorStand a little taller, see my future clearerI don’t wanna waste another year like thisHalf alive, drowning in what could’ve beenI know there’s something bigger waiting for meI just gotta become who I’m meant to be

Some days the weight feels hard to holdLike my heart turned tired before it turned oldBut there’s still a part of me that won’t give inStill believes I can begin again

So I’ll keep chasing tiny sparks of lightEven on the darkest nightsMaybe growth looks ugly before it shinesMaybe healing just takes time

I’ve put myself and everyone I love through hellBut I swear one day I’ll make my son proud as well

Pre-Chorus

And maybe every scar I wearMeans I still fought to be hereMaybe all this pain will proveI was never meant to lose

Chorus

I want more from lifeMore from myselfMore than empty highsThat leave me somewhere elseI wanna wake up with purpose in my veinsNot just running from the pressure and painI don’t wanna waste another year like thisHalf alive, drowning in what could’ve beenI know there’s something bigger waiting for meI just gotta become who I’m meant to be

I’ve spent so long waiting for a signFor the perfect moment to change my lifeBut maybe all I really needIs to stop being afraid of me

To take the risk, to make mistakesTo keep going even when my whole heart shakes’Cause deep inside I still believe there’s a better version of me trying to breathe
