Intro
Yeah…
Funny how the light feel heavy
When you the one they lookin’ at
Verse 1
I remember dreamin’ small just to survive
Now the vision big and I’m scared of the size
Everybody cheer when you step in your glow
Nobody ask what it cost you to grow
I been talkin’ to silence, it answer me back
Say “stay on your course,” don’t panic, don’t crack
Faith in my chest, doubt in my bones
Both fight for control when I’m all alone
Chorus
This the weight of the light, yeah it pull on my spine
Everybody want shine, don’t nobody want time
Hands get tired when you buildin’ your way
Still I lift ‘em up, I got somethin’ to say
This the weight of the light, gotta carry it right
Too much pride turn a glow into night
I ain’t perfect, I’m present, I’m tryin’ my best
If this heavy, it mean I was meant for the test
Verse 2
I been checkin’ my motives more than my mirrors
Tryna hear what’s eternal, not just what’s louder
Fame got a way of changin’ the room
Make strangers feel close and the real ones move
I pray less for wins, more for peace
Less “look at me,” more “help me see”
If my name fade out, let my work remain
If I fall, let it teach me somethin’ plain
Verse 3
Pressure make diamonds, or it crack the stone
Depends if you listen or stand alone
I seen talent fold when the praise too loud
I seen quiet faith never beg the crowd
I been learnin’ slow don’t mean you late
Some doors open only when you wait
I don’t need revenge, I don’t need receipts
Life keep score better than tweets
Verse 4
I been learnin’ balance ain’t a static pose
It’s a thousand corrections nobody knows
Some days faith feel loud, some days thin
Still choose to knock when doubt don’t let me in
Roots don’t rush just to touch the sky
They dig real deep where the dark stay quiet
Some prayers unanswered saved my breath
Some delays kept me from meetin’ my death
I ain’t bitter, I’m awake
Every setback just adjust my weight
If I stumble, let it teach my feet
Every wrong note sharpen how I speak
Bridge (Spoken Feel)
Yeah…
They clap for the outcome, not the cost
They quote the wins, don’t mention the loss
But I know the nights I almost quit
The versions of me I had to outgrow quick
If I lead, let it be with open hands
If I stand, let it be on what I am
No mask, no myth, no borrowed light
Just truth in motion, night by night
Chorus (Final)
This the weight of the light, I accept my role
If it bend my back, it strengthen my soul
If I glow, let it point past me
I carry the light—but it carry me
This the weight of the light, I won’t drop it now
Not a curse, it’s a call, I don’t bow
If it test me, I walk it through
This light heavy ‘cause it’s meant to move
Outro
Still becomin’, still untied
Still unlearnin’ old goodbyes
If the road bend, I bend with it
If it test me, I sit with it
I don’t need the world to agree
I just need peace when it’s me and me
If the light heavy, I won’t fight it
I’ll breathe, stand firm, and walk inside it
Yeah…
That’s the weight.
That’s the walk.
