[Intro]
I came back carrying every scar
Not empty-handed—just battle-marked
[Verse 1]
They said the world owes you a reason
I watched that promise lose its shape
Through hospital halls and unpaid seasons
I learned what hunger couldn’t take
Every hard year put weight in my hands
Every goodbye made the small things grand
A warm plate, a friend, one breath in my chest
I stopped waiting for life to explain itself
[Pre-Chorus]
No perfect answer, no sacred sign
I draw the line, then call it mine
[Chorus]
Life is precious—say it while you can
No meaning waiting in the master plan
I give life meaning with the way I stand
After everything, I still choose these hands
Life is precious, more than I was told
Misery taught me what I wouldn’t hold
I took the wreckage, made a road from stone
This life is mine—I make it my own
[Verse 2]
I know the taste of a locked door
The kind of silence that can split a room
I dragged my name across the cold floor
Then found a pulse beneath the gloom
I don’t romanticize the pain I survived
But it taught me to notice the proof I’m alive
The first clean morning, the call from a friend
The laugh that catches you off guard again
[Pre-Chorus]
No borrowed purpose, no throne above
I build my answer out of love
[Chorus]
Life is precious—say it while you can
No meaning waiting in the master plan
I give life meaning with the way I stand
After everything, I still choose these hands
Life is precious, more than I was told
Misery taught me what I wouldn’t hold
I took the wreckage, made a road from stone
This life is mine—I make it my own
[Breakdown]
There is no meaning handed down
Then hear me now
I am the meaning I create
I am the choice I make
I lost enough to understand
A living heart is not a plan
It’s a promise made from breath and time
So I will spend this life as mine
[Final Chorus]
Life is precious—louder than the fear
I found the reason standing here
I give life meaning with every scar
I made it through, and here we are
Life is precious, let the whole world know
Even from ashes, something grows
I took the misery, refused the throne
This life is mine—I make it my own
[Outro]
No meaning waiting
No fate to prove
I give life meaning
By the way I live
