[Verse 1]
For my family, I stand tall
Even when my back feels small
I got prayers in my teeth
And mud on my shoes
I been carrying old names
Broken glass, and shame
If I made a bad turn
I still pay my dues
[Pre-Chorus]
I am learning how to breathe
Through the smoke and the ache
I am laying down the blade
For the ones I can’t replace
[Chorus]
Santa Muerte, hold me close
I let go of what I know
For my family, I come home
For my family, I come home
Santa Muerte, take this weight
I forgive what made me break
If I hurt you, I can change
If I hurt you, I can change
[Verse 2]
I am forgiving men
For every wound they gave
For every person I was
Too angry to save
If I was part of harm
Then I’m naming it now
I won’t run from my part
I’ll put my pride down
[Pre-Chorus]
I am learning how to breathe
Through the smoke and the ache
I am laying down the blade
For the ones I can’t replace
[Chorus]
Santa Muerte, hold me close
I let go of what I know
For my family, I come home
For my family, I come home
Santa Muerte, take this weight
I forgive what made me break
If I hurt you, I can change
If I hurt you, I can change
[Bridge]
I don’t want no more ghosts
In the rooms I love
I want soft hands now
I want mercy enough
Let my name come clean
Let my chest feel light
I was born for more
Than this endless fight
[Chorus]
Santa Muerte, hold me close
I let go of what I know
For my family, I come home
For my family, I come home
Santa Muerte, take this weight
I forgive what made me break
If I hurt you, I can change
If I hurt you, I can change
