Stronger Than You Thought

Verse 1 low, intimate]

I see the weight sitting on your chest

Like every word that said you weren’t enough

Voices in your head that never rest

Telling you you’re not who you should’ve been

The world gets loud, tries to drown you out

But there’s a quiet truth you can’t ignore

Every scar you hide, every night you fought

You’re still standing here after all

They’ll try to shape you

Try to wear you thin

But there’s a part of you

They’ll never get in

Chorus (emotional)

So hold on

Through the nights that break you

Say your name

Even if your voice shakes

Every scar is proof you made it through

Every fall just showed you what to do

You’re not lost

You’re just finding out

You’re stronger

Than you ever thought you were

You walked roads that cut you deep

Trusted hearts that let you down

Held your breath through silent rooms

Where no one ever heard a sound

But every door that closed behind you

Still pushed you where you stand today

Even broken roads can lead you

Somewhere you were meant to stay

Pre-Chorus 2

They’ll tell you who you’re meant to be

Like they know your story best

But you don’t owe them anything

You’ve already faced the rest

So hold on

Through the nights that break you

Say your name

Even if your voice shakes

Every scar is proof you made it through

Every fall just showed you what to do

You’re not lost

You’re just finding out

You’re stronger

Than you ever thought you were

I’m not what broke me

I’m not my worst days

I’m the voice that kept me breathing

When I almost walked away

[Final Chorus / Outro (piano lift[

So hold on

Through the nights that break you

Say your name

Even if your voice shakes

Every scar is proof you made it through

Every fall just showed you what to do

You’re not lost

You’re just finding out

You’re stronger

Than you ever thought you were

Hold on… yeah hold on

This isn’t the end

It’s just where it starts

Yeah…

Right here

This is where it starts
