[Intro]
This one’s for my brother Mitch
Been through hell, still standing
Listen close, man, this is yours
[Verse 1]
You been carrying weight you never packed yourself
Hands still shaking but you showed up anyway
Fifteen an hour felt like gold
Cause honest money hits different when you’ve been low
Lost your footing, lost your voice, lost your calm
But you didn’t lose the part of you that keeps pushing on
[Pre-Chorus]
You stared the dark down and it blinked first
Cold floors, broken breath, that hospital curse
Still here, still breathing, still saying I choose
That ain’t luck, brother, that’s fight in your bones coming through
[Chorus]
This ain’t the end, it’s the burn off
All that poison finally letting go
No baggage now, just scars and truth
More room for love, more room for proof
You ain’t done, you ain’t lost, you ain’t late
You’re becoming who you were meant to be this whole damn way
Version 2.0 rising slow
But he’s solid now, yeah, I already know
[Verse 2]
Thirty days feels long when you’re raw inside
Anniversaries, birthdays, ghosts riding shotgun in your mind
Heart split open, vows torn thin
Still praying for her even when it cuts your skin
You laugh through the pain cause that’s how you cope
But beneath the jokes is a stubborn kind of hope
[Pre-Chorus]
Discernment ain’t gone, it was buried alive
Under noise and lies that almost cost you your life
You didn’t fail God, you didn’t quit
You just took the long road back to yourself a bit
[Chorus]
This ain’t the end, it’s the burn off
All that poison finally letting go
No baggage now, just scars and truth
More room for love, more room for proof
You ain’t done, you ain’t lost, you ain’t late
You’re becoming who you were meant to be this whole damn way
Version 2.0 rising slow
But he’s solid now, yeah, I already know
[Bridge]
Four minutes gone but you came back breathing
Means there’s still work left, still reason
Angels don’t always sing, sometimes they shove
Drag your ass back toward life and love
[Outro]
Less weight now. More heart. Still standing.
