[Intro][breathy, intimate]
Mm…
I learned how to bloom in the quiet
[Verse 1]
I used to think loud meant strong
Used to think I had to prove I belong
But I found power in the calm
In choosing peace when I’ve been wronged
Every battle left a trace
But I wear grace on my face
I don’t raise my voice to win
I let my silence sink in
[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t need to break to be brave
I don’t need to burn to be flames
There’s a fire under my skin
That glows, not screams
[Chorus]
I’m soft as silk, strong as steel
Every scar reminds me what’s real
I don’t fight the way they do
I rise in truth
I don’t shatter, I reveal
A heart that bends but never kneels
Gentle light, unbreakable
Soft as steel
[Post-Chorus][airy harmony]
Ooh… unbreakable
Ooh… soft as steel
[Verse 2]
I’ve cried oceans in empty rooms
Learned how to heal without a view
They only see the shine I wear
Not the weight I learned to bear
Petals bruised but still in bloom
I grew strength in the quiet gloom
If love hurts, I let it go
I won’t bleed for someone else’s throne
[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t need to harden my heart
To keep myself from falling apart
There’s a courage in staying kind
Even when you’re tired inside
[Chorus]
I’m soft as silk, strong as steel
Every scar reminds me what’s real
I don’t fight the way they do
I rise in truth
I don’t shatter, I reveal
A heart that bends but never kneels
Gentle light, unbreakable
Soft as steel
[Bridge][emotional lift]
If I tremble, let me shake
That doesn’t mean that I’m afraid
Every tear I ever cried
Taught me how to stay alive
[Bridge][restrained belt]
I don’t roar to be heard
I let my soul speak first
This is strength they’ll never steal
A heart that feels
[Final Chorus][harmony]
We’re soft as silk, strong as steel
Still we heal, still we feel
We don’t harden to survive
We stay alive
If the world tries to make us cold
We choose warmth, we choose hope
Gentle light, unbreakable
Soft as steel
[Outro][whisper]
Soft doesn’t mean weak
It means I lived… and stayed
