The Final Chapter
(Verse 1)
Started writing on the 25th,
Not for fame, not for light,
Just a soul tired of the silence,
Finally ready to fight.
Thirteen tapes gave me courage,
Hannah’s voice, it spoke my truth,
I’ve been living with the weight of pain,
Since the wreckage of my youth.
(Pre-Chorus)
All the masks and all the lies,
Every "fine" behind the cries,
You don’t know what’s inside,
Unless you walk through my skies.
(Chorus)
But I deleted the pain,
Wrote my story again,
All the pages that broke me,
Now they help me stand.
Yeah, I denied my faith,
To fit in with the crowd,
But I’m lifting my voice now,
I won’t stay down.
I'm not that broken kid again—
I delete and write again.
(Verse 2)
Had a Bible in my drawer,
But fear locked up my voice,
Said "no" when I meant "yes,"
Thought I didn’t have a choice.
Tried to be like all the others,
Just to be left behind,
But I found grace in the fire,
Now I see with clearer eyes.
(Pre-Chorus)
Every heartbreak, every scar,
Was a verse in who we are,
Don’t need to run from the past,
It’s the ink that fills my heart.
(Chorus)
So I deleted the shame,
Wrote my future again,
All the ghosts that haunted me,
Now they know my name.
Yeah, I walked through hell,
But heaven pulled me out,
I found my strength in truth,
I found God in the doubt.
I’m not hiding who I’ve been—
I delete and write again.
(Bridge)
You can judge me, turn away,
Say I’m lost, say I’ve changed,
But we all got pages,
We keep locked in the flame.
This ain’t for sympathy,
This ain’t for fame,
It’s for the kid out there thinking
They’re the only one in pain.
(Chorus – Final)
Now I’m walking in light,
Still got tears in my eyes,
But I’m not afraid of my story,
It’s what helped me survive.
Yeah, I fell, yeah, I broke,
But this soul never died,
‘Cause grace wrote a new line
Where I thought I’d say goodbye.
I’m not who I was back then—
I delete and write again.
(Outro – Spoken/Whispered)
This is my story… not the end.
Just the beginning...
of who I really am.
