Clear Waters

I been drowning in my thoughts again

Tryna swim but the tide too strong

Smiling wide with a heavy chest

Told the world that I’m holding on

But I don’t wanna fake no more

I need peace like never before

These chains, they tight around my soul

Been praying just to let it go

They see the light, but not the fight in me

Battles I don’t ever let them see

I’m tired of being my own enemy

I just need clarity…

I need clear waters

Where my heart can float

No more carrying what I can’t control

Give me still silence

Let the noise unwind

Let me breathe deep

Let me free my mind…

I’ve been moving with a heavy step

Like the ground don’t love me back

Trust been breaking down in layers

Even mirrors crack

Tell me, do they hear me when I cry?

Do they feel it when I lie—

Sayin’ “I’m fine”?

(But I ain’t fine…)

Tired of wars I can’t explain

Tired of dancing in the rain

I deserve some sun again

I deserve to feel my name

Without fear…

Without shame…

I need clear waters

Where my heart can float

No more carrying what I can’t control

Give me still silence

Let the noise unwind

Let me breathe deep

Let me free my mind…

Ooooh, free my mind, yeah yeah

Let me drift where the peace resides

Clear the sky inside…

Let me free my mind…
