Verse 1
I left the shore when I was just twenty,
Carried my heart across the sea
Left my home, my mom and dad,
Not knowing what was waiting for me
A new world, a new beginning,
Every step was unknown
I was a child learning to stand,
Longing for the love I’d grown
⸻
Pre-Chorus
Silent battles, tears in the night,
Prayers whispered when no one’s in sight
Every weakness, every fear,
God whispered, “I am here”
⸻
Chorus
Through the storms and lonely days,
I found my strength, I found my way
Mom and dad, you light my skies,
Your love lives in my eyes
Grateful for every fall I’ve known,
Every seed of pain I’ve sown
With no hesitation, with faith and fight,
He guides me, protects me through the night
⸻
Verse 2
Every street, every face unknown,
Every tear I cried alone
But every prayer, every hope I sent,
Built the woman that I am in the end
I learned to smile through pain,
To rise again, to breathe through rain
A life both hard and beautiful,
Grateful for the impossible
⸻
Pre-Chorus
Silent battles, tears in the night,
Prayers whispered when no one’s in sight
Every weakness, every fear,
God whispered, “I am here”
⸻
Chorus
Through the storms and lonely days,
I found my strength, I found my way
Mom and dad, you light my skies,
Your love lives in my eyes
Grateful for every fall I’ve known,
Every seed of pain I’ve sown
With no hesitation, with faith and fight,
He guides me, protects me through the night
⸻
Bridge
From a child longing for home,
To a woman standing strong
Every tear, every silent prayer,
Led me to this life I bear
I carry love across the seas,
Strength in every heartbeat, every dream
And I know, through it all,
God is the reason I never fall
⸻
Final Chorus (Triumphant)
Through the storms and lonely days,
I found my strength, I found my way
Mom and dad, your love remains,
Guiding me through joys and pains
Grateful for every fall I’ve known,
Every seed of hope I’ve grown
With no hesitation, with faith and fight,
I rise, I shine, I’m alive tonight
⸻
Outro
From a child afraid and alone,
To the woman I’ve become
Every battle, every prayer, every tear,
Led me here, and I’m still here
