Before the world named you…
Who were you?
HOOK (LOW, HYPNOTIC)
Who are you… when nobody’s watching?
Who are you… when the noise get quiet?
I hear a voice in me keep talking,
Saying remember who you are—don’t fight it.
VERSE 1 (INNER VOICE)
I been asking myself questions in the dark,
Not for answers—just to hear my heart.
Every scar got a story, every wound got a name,
Every loss left a lesson, not a chain.
They told me be strong, but never showed how,
So I sat with the pain till it talked back loud.
It said you ain’t broken, you been becoming,
Every silence was training for what’s coming.
HOOK
Who are you… when nobody’s watching?
Who are you… when the noise get quiet?
That voice in you ain’t lying,
It’s just asking—will you finally try it?
VERSE 2 (SELF RESPONSE)
I ain’t my fear, I ain’t my past,
I’m the breath that kept moving when time felt fast.
I’m the calm in the storm I survived,
The reason I’m still here is ‘cause I decided to rise.
I talk to my spirit like it’s sitting beside me,
It don’t yell, it just guide me.
Say slow down, breathe deep, stay present,
You already enough—just remember.
BRIDGE (CALL & RESPONSE)
Voice: Who are you?
Me: I’m the one that stayed.
Voice: Who are you?
Me: I’m the faith in the pain.
Voice: Who are you?
Me: I’m still becoming me.
FINAL HOOK (CHANT / FADE)
Who are you…
Say it slow, let it land.
Who are you…
Not the world—just the man.
If you hear that voice inside,
That’s your spirit talking back.
OUTRO (WHISPER)
You been answering the whole time.
