Holding on in the Storm

In the silence after the storm, I stand tall, holding on

Waiting for a sign, a whisper, a love that's never gone

Lost the man who was our rock, now it's time to carry on

Mama’s tears are falling slow, but I know I gotta be strong

For the nieces with their eyes so wide, I promise I'll be their guide

In this whirlwind of heartbreak, I'll be the steady tide

Holding pieces of a shattered heart, I’ll gently repair

With every breath I take, I’ll show I care

I’ll be the shoulder when the nights get cold

The helping hand to lift what's broke

Walking through the fire, I won’t let go

For momma and the girls, I’ll carry their hope

I’ll be the one they lean on, the strength they need

In this moment of loss, I’ll plant my roots

Be the calm in the storm, the love that heals

For my family, I’ll do what I must do

Though the pain runs deep, I carry their dreams

A new tomorrow, together it seems

There’s a piece of him in all I do, in every sacrifice made anew

This love will see us through

Holding on in the quiet night, they’re my guiding star

Forever in my heart, knowing who we are

The world may change, but I’ll forever stay true

To the family I love, to the vow I renew
