[Intro]
I was sinking where the floorboards knew my name
Every door in that house opened into blame
Then a straw hat laughed like the sky could break
Said, “Come aboard, you still got a life to make”
[Verse 1]
I learned to fold my heart in the kitchen drawer
Smile at the table, then sleep on the floor
Family portraits tilted, every frame held a lie
I got good at saying “fine” with a storm in my eyes
Then a rubber-band grin came cutting through the room
A captain with a promise that refused to make room
For the voice saying I was what they called me at home
He said, “Nobody gets to chain a soul of their own”
[Pre-Chorus]
Nami read the weather in the shake of my hands
Zoro stood guard when I could barely stand
Sanji put a warm plate beside my fear
Robin said, “You can tell the truth here”
[Chorus]
The Straw Hats pulled me back from the edge
Found me breathing on a broken ledge
Luffy said, “You’re not the name they gave you”
And the whole crew showed me what brave can do
I was lost in a house that called pain love
Now I sail with the ones I’m safe with
If I’m still here, let the whole sea know
They saved me from myself, then taught me how to grow
[Verse 2]
Usopp made me laugh when my chest locked tight
Chopper checked my pulse in the middle of night
Franky built a future from a crate and a spark
Brook played one soft note through the weight of the dark
Jinbe spoke steady like a harbor at dawn
Said surviving yesterday doesn’t mean you’re alone
I brought my old wounds, every scar and excuse
They gave me a flag and a reason to choose
[Pre-Chorus]
No more shrinking down to fit their little room
No more mistaking fear for family truth
When the old voice rises, I know what to say
“I belong to the people who help me stay”
[Chorus]
The Straw Hats pulled me back from the edge
Found me breathing on a broken ledge
Luffy said, “You’re not the name they gave you”
And the whole crew showed me what brave can do
I was lost in a house that called pain love
Now I sail with the ones I’m safe with
If I’m still here, let the whole sea know
They saved me from myself, then taught me how to grow
[Bridge]
I’m not a burden, I’m not a curse
I’m more than the worst thing they said first
When the waves rise high, I won’t disappear
I’ve got a crew, I’ve got a voice, I’ve got a reason to steer
[Final Chorus]
The Straw Hats pulled me back from the edge
Turned a frightened heart into a pledge
Luffy said, “Your life is yours to claim”
And I stepped from the wreckage without shame
I was lost in a house that called pain love
Now I sail with the ones I’m safe with
If I’m still here, let the whole sea know
They saved me from myself, then taught me how to grow
[Outro]
If you’re hiding where nobody sees
There’s a ship beyond those memories
Raise your hand, let somebody know
You deserve a crew, you deserve to grow
