[Verse 1]
I wore long sleeves in July,
Hiding scars I couldn’t cry.
Screamed in silence every night,
Prayed for death beneath the light.
I danced with blades like broken glass,
Felt alive for just a flash.
No one saw the war inside,
But He did — I know He tried.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
I said, “God, if You’re real,
Why do I still feel like this?”
But even when I cursed His name,
He reached into the abyss.
⸻
[Chorus]
Now I’m carved in grace, not pain,
No more blood to wash the shame.
He took my wrists, held my face,
Told me I was more than the ache.
From the ashes, I was raised —
I’m not broken, I’m remade.
Where the scars used to reign,
He wrote mercy in their place.
⸻
[Verse 2]
Mirror cracked, a shattered soul,
Felt too far from being whole.
But in the silence, love broke through —
Said, “Child, I never left you.”
I traded blades for a Bible,
Darkness fled from His revival.
Even angels weep for me,
But He bled to set me free.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
I said, “God, I don’t deserve You,”
He said, “That’s why I came.”
When the world gave up on me,
He still called me by my name.
⸻
[Chorus]
Now I’m carved in grace, not pain,
No more blood to wash the shame.
He took my wrists, held my face,
Told me I was more than the ache.
From the ashes, I was raised —
I’m not broken, I’m remade.
Where the scars used to reign,
He wrote mercy in their place.
⸻
[Bridge] (builds with drums + choir)
No more lies inside my head,
No more flirting with the dead.
God of rescue, God of light,
You fought for me in the fight.
⸻
[Final Chorus]
Now I’m carved in grace, not pain,
No more chains, no more shame.
Held by hands that bore the nails,
Lifted from my private hell.
He saw my soul, He knew my name —
Loved me through the darkest days.
Where the cuts once bled in vain,
Now there’s hope in every vein.
⸻
[Outro] (soft piano + voice)
I’m still here.
By His grace.
And every scar is now a place…
Where love embraced me face to face. 💔➡️🙏
