[Ad-lib] (Mmm, yeah...)
[Ad-lib] (I heard yesterday at Celebrate Recovery...)
[Ad-lib] (Once you hit bottom, there's only going up...)
[Ad-lib] (Listen close now)
[Verse 1: Breathy, Close-Mic R&B Delivery]
I heard yesterday at Celebrate Recovery in the room
That once you hit the bottom, there's only going up out of the gloom
So why do I feel like I'm spiraling down in the dark?
Trying to find a light, trying to catch a single holy spark
You keep calling me your friend after everything we did
Leaving my heart struggling, trying to keep the truth hid
Am I at the bottom? When will my self-worth be enough?
[Pre-Chorus: Subtle 808 Heartbeat & Crisp Snaps Build]
I asked God if I should leave while my spirit was praying
Went to grab your juice, watching the fantasy decaying
[Vocal Stutter] (F-F-Falling down!)
When will I rise above this rough?
[Beat Drop: Heavy Slow 808 Trap Bass & Gospel Choir Enter]
[Chorus: Soaring Gospel-R&B Belt & Massive Choir]
I heard in a song once, it's okay to cry!
It's okay to fall apart under this open sky! [Chorus ad-lib] (Okay to cry!)
You don't have to try to be strong when you are not!
Pour it out, pour it out, giving Him everything I've got!
'Cause there is freedom in every single tear that falls!
God is breaking down these heavy, silent walls!
[Verse 2: Snappy, Melancholy Neo-Soul Cadence]
Sensitive to love, sensitive to heartache in the night
Sensitive to blessings, stepping straight into His light
No more fighting back the weeping, no more hiding in the shade
Pour it out, pour it out, watching every shadow fade!
My babies are blessed, my sanctuary is solid gold
I don't need your half-hearted love to help my life unfold!
(My boys are blessed! Yes they are!)
[Bridge: Stripped Back to Solo Acoustic Guitar & Cello]
I'm done fighting tears, letting the living water wash the stain
Pouring out my burdens, stepping right out of the pain!
[Speaking in tongues] (Ka-ra-ba-sha-ta! Ho-san-na!)
[Drop] (Three, two, one — drop the flood!)
[Chorus: Maximum Holy Energy & Full Choir Climax]
I heard in a song once, it's okay to cry!
It's okay to fall apart under this open sky! [Chorus ad-lib] (Okay to cry!)
You don't have to try to be strong when you are not!
Pour it out, pour it out, giving Him everything I've got!
'Cause there is freedom in every single tear that falls!
God is breaking down these heavy, silent walls!
[Outro: Slow Outro Fade, Rhodes Piano & Rain Sound Effects]
Freedom in every drop.
It's okay to fall apart.
I'm pouring it out.
My babies are blessed.
My sanctuary is gold.
I am whole.
[Ad-lib] (Eyepiercinglove... amen)
