Verse 1 I got tired of chasing shadows Tired of bending just to belong I gave my heart to every promise Still ended up feeling wrong I tried to be what they wanted Shrank myself just to be seen But the louder their approval grew The emptier I felt within Pre-Chorus ‘Cause people’s love can change overnight Here today, gone by morning light But Your voice stays steady and true So I’m learning who I live for now Chorus I’ll stop impressing people I’ll start pleasing You No more living for their applause When Your grace pulls me through You see my heart, not my image You call me loved, not used I don’t need the world’s approval If I’m approved by You Verse 2 I learned that even when I give my all Some will still walk away Some will misunderstand my intentions Some will never stay But You never asked for perfection Only honesty and trust So I lay down every performance And lift my hands in love Pre-Chorus 2 I’m done competing, done comparing Done chasing what won’t last I’m choosing peace over pressure A future over the past Chorus I’ll stop impressing people I’ll start pleasing You No more living from insecurity I’ve found my purpose in You You see my heart, not my image You value truth, not views I don’t need the crowd to cheer me If I’m walking close to You, I Please God alone, I please him with all my soul Bridge I’ll love them without worshiping Their opinions over Your truth I don’t need everyone to get me As long as I’m led by You You’re the voice that calms my fears The reason I can stand If I lose the world but keep You I’ve gained more than I planned Chorus (Soft then build) So I’ll stop impressing people I’ll start pleasing You My worth is not in their reactions It’s secure in You You see my heart, not my image You’re faithful, strong, and true I don’t need to be understood When I’m fully known by You Outro At the end of every season When the noise finally fades The ones who love will stay beside me And You’ll never walk away So here I am, no pretending Just faith, honest and true I’m done impressing people God, I choose pleasing You until the end. It is all about you my God!! It is all about your love and mercy

Let love flow
