Not What You Do (But What I Choose)

Verse 1 You threw your words like stones at night But I stood still beneath the light Your fire burned, but didn’t scar ‘Cause peace is found in who we are Pre-Chorus You don’t define what’s true in me Your voice is not my destiny Chorus It’s not what you do, but what I choose Not your rage that makes me lose The storm may rise, the crowd may jeer But only I can bring me fear You can’t take what’s not your right I hold my soul, I hold it tight Verse 2 You spoke of me behind closed doors But I don’t chase what isn’t yours Let the wind carry what they say My worth won’t drift, it will not sway Pre-Chorus I’ll meet the world with open hands Rooted deep in where I stand Chorus It’s not what you do, but what I choose Not your lies that make me bruise The arrows fall, but miss their mark They can’t touch my inner spark You can’t take what’s not your right I hold my soul, I hold it tight Bridge Let them talk, let them shout Their voices fade, their echoes out My silence speaks, my calm replies The truth survives when ego dies Final Chorus It’s not what you do, but what I choose You can’t make me hate or lose The world may turn, the sky may fall But I decide if I lose it all You can’t take what’s not your right I hold my soul... I hold it tight
