(Verse 1)
Everybody’s got an opinion
Saying who I’ll be, how I’ll fall apart
They talk like they wrote my ending
Like they know my name better than my heart
But I was spoken before I was breathing
Marked out long before the noise
If everything’s already been named
Why would I let strangers choose my voice?
(Bridge)
You say wait, even when it hurts
You say trust, even when it’s dark
Time keeps ticking, I’m holding my breath
But your word never misses its mark
(Chorus)
I’m already known, yeah, before I was broken
Before I was scared, before I was alone
You see the end from the start of my story
So why would I listen to lies they throw?
People disappoint, they fade like smoke
But you don’t change, you don’t let go
I’m already known—
So I don’t need their truth to feel whole
(Verse 2)
I tried putting faith in faces
That promised more than they could give
They talk loud but they don’t mean it
They don’t know the life I live
You search the heart, you read the silence
Every motive, every tear
You say I was set apart
Even when the path’s unclear
(Bridge)
You don’t lie, you don’t forget
You don’t say things you won’t do
When the world feels heavy on my chest
I remember who’s pulling me through
(Chorus)
I’m already known, yeah, before I was broken
Before I was scared, before I was alone
You see the end from the start of my story
So why would I listen to lies they throw?
People disappoint, they fade like smoke
But you don’t change, you don’t let go
I’m already known—
So I don’t need their truth to feel whole
(Verse)
They say talk first, think later
But I’d rather open your word
I don’t wanna sound so confident
About things I’ve never heard
You say the road’s not mine to figure out
Every step’s already planned
If the world is loud and cruel tonight
I’ll still be safe in your hands
(Bridge)
There’ll be trouble, yeah, I know it
I’ve felt the weight of it all
But you said peace lives inside you
And you already won this war
(Chorus Final)
I’m already known, already chosen
Written in more than a temporary tone
When the books are opened, when truth is spoken
I know where my hope is sewn
Everything works, even the pain
For the ones you call by name
I’m already known—
And your love won’t walk away
(Outro)
So I’ll commit every plan, every fear
Every dream I’m scared to start
If you made me, if you keep me
Then you won’t abandon your art
