More than my yesterday

Verse 1

There was a time I lost my way,

Chasing something that stole my name.

Every mirror showed a stranger’s face,

Trying hard to outrun the pain.

I built walls around my heart,

Convinced I’d fallen way too far.

But even in my darkest night,

There was still a spark, there was still a light.

Pre-Chorus

Grace kept calling my name,

Even when I couldn’t hear it.

Hope kept reaching for my hand,

Even when I couldn’t feel it.

Chorus

I’m more than my yesterday,

More than every wrong turn that I made.

I’m stronger than the chains that tried to hold me down,

Look at me now—I found solid ground.

I’m choosing life, I’m choosing love,

Thanking God for never giving up.

Every sunrise is a brand-new start,

And freedom is beating inside my heart.

Verse 2

I’m a mother before anything else,

Six little reasons to believe in myself.

They remind me every single day

That love is stronger than my mistakes.

I’m teaching them it’s okay to fall,

What’s important is answering the call.

To stand back up with open hands,

And become the person you were meant to be.

Bridge

Recovery isn’t one big moment,

It’s a thousand little choices made.

One more prayer, one more sunrise,

One more reason to keep the faith.

If my story helps one soul believe,

That broken hearts can truly heal,

Then every mile I’ve walked to get here

Has led me somewhere real.

Final Chorus

I’m more than my yesterday,

I’m living proof that people change.

The chains are gone, the hope is real,

I’m finally learning how freedom feels.

The road ahead is bright and long,

And now I’m writing a different song.

For every tear, there’s joy today—

I’m more than my yesterday.

Outro

So if you ask me who I am…

I’m a fighter.

I’m a mother.

I’m a survivor.

I’m still becoming.

And that’s the most beautiful part of my story.
