The road feels heavy when the sunrise brings another test
Dreams get quieter when doubt starts pounding in your chest
Every step can feel like sinking into mud after rain
Yet the heart keeps beating, whispering reasons to remain
We stumble on the cracks that nobody else can see
Carry silent battles like invisible debris
The night can stretch forever with no sign of dawn
Still something in our spirit says the story’s not done
Courage isn’t loud, it’s choosing one more try
It’s standing up again with tears still in your eyes
Hope is a small flame cupped in shaking hands
Protected by the choice to keep on being who you are
Scars become a map of places where you grew
Pain turns into wisdom when you make it through
The storm may bend your back but it won’t decide your worth
Because perseverance writes the strongest lines on earth
