The Road is Opening

Verse 1

Some days the sky don’t break at all,

Just heavy gray and unanswered calls.

Roads I walked feel worn somehow,

Still farther along than I felt just now.

Yeah I’ve stood knee-deep in doubt and fear,

Questioned if the path was clear,

But deep in the silence, steady and true,

A whisper reminds me who I am in You.

Not what I missed, not where I fell,

Not every story I used to tell,

There’s something deeper calling me through—

“I’m not finished with you.”

Pre-Chorus

When the night feels longer than the dawn,

And every strength you had feels gone—

Hold on.

Chorus

I’m not defined by the steps I missed now,

Not by the weight of the when or the how,

I choose to believe — yeah I still believe

Grace meets me right where I need.

Nothing here is wasted space,

Every stumble still shaped by grace,

I’m held by a hand I can’t see,

What felt like failure ain’t defining me.

Verse 2

I’ve learned pressure don’t break the soul,

It reveals what’s been made whole,

Every scar got a story to tell,

But it’s not where I’m meant to dwell.

I’ve watched the rain wash shame away,

Seen broken nights give birth to day,

If I’m still breathing, there’s purpose ahead,

Not defined by the ground where I tread.

Every misstep didn’t steal my name,

Didn’t cancel the call or quiet the flame,

Still being shaped, still being formed,

Still being carried through every storm.

Pre-Chorus

This moment don’t get the final say,

There’s a deeper truth lighting the way.

Chorus

I’m not defined by the steps I missed now,

Standing taller than I thought I knew how,

I choose to believe — yeah I still believe

Purpose is growing inside of me.

Nothing here is by mistake,

Every turn is a path You make,

I’m known, I’m seen, I’m not alone,

Still becoming who I’m called to own.

Bridge

There’s a reason for this season I’m in,

Even the places I’ve stumbled within,

Every seed breaks open to grow,

Every river gotta run through the low.

I’m held by a love that don’t let go,

Stronger than anything I’ve ever known,

If I’m still here, then there’s more to be—

More light still alive in me.

Drop / Lift

So breathe it in… let the weight fall through…

This moment is not the truth of you.

Final Chorus

I’m not defined by the steps I missed still,

I’m learning to trust a higher will,

I choose to believe — yeah I still believe

Love is stronger than what I see.

This life is bigger than where I’ve been,

Every setback don’t box me in,

Storms may come but they never stay—

I’m still moving forward today.

Outro

So I lift my eyes, let the light break through…

Not defined by what I’ve been through…

The road is opening—

And so am I
