(Intro) The light shines in the darkness..., and the darkness has not overcome it... (Verse 1) Hey... "So, what's the big deal...? What good does this 'God' assist...?" They ain't seen the wreckage of my past.., the places I used to crash, A barren terrain where shadows were built to last. What hasn't He grappled with in this fractured design? What hidden craving didn't scream a desperate sign? He laid foundations, the mountains tearing through the blue, But watch the fault lines, the sheer hell I went through. (Chorus) I could sermonise until my lungs give out, but you Can't show sunrise to eyes that only know gray, They gotta feel the warmth on their skin..., to wash the shadows away... Like Wind through the pines ain't no doctrine in sight, It's the breath of resilience, clawing its way to the light. So don't just observe with that cold, clinical stare, sink into your own abyss, the burdens you bear. Then you might glimpse that tether, invisible, strong and true, Pulling you up when you thought all hope was through. (Verse 2) My mind... A Straight-up war zone, a theater of fear, Every craving a live wire, pulling ever so near. My soul was truly crushed through the night, with darkness coming I couldn't see the light. I wore the mask of "normal," played the expected, role... While inside, the whole inner machinery was losing control. Numbness was my fortress, a self-imposed prison cell, Blocking out the beauty, denying my right to just smile. My thoughts, a twisted film, on endless, torturous loop, Dragging me down to the, ugly..truth., (Chorus) I could sermonise until my lungs give out... but you Can't show sunrise to eyes that only know gray, They gotta feel the warmth on their skin..., to wash the shadows away... Like Wind through the pines ain't no doctrine in sight, It's the breath of resilience, clawing its way to the light. So don't just observe with that cold, clinical stare, sink into your own abyss, the burdens you bear. Then you might glimpse that tether, invisible, strong and true, Pulling you up when you thought all hope was through. (Bridge) Sorrow was my shadow twin, an unwelcoming, cold embrace, Followed by quick flashes, a fragile, hesitant grace. Anxiety, a tight band around my weary soul, Stealing the very air, leaving me incomplete... Felt like defeat... But mark these words, etched in the scars that still remain, That chapter's slammed shut, washed by the cleansing, rain. Now, under that vast heavenly sky, so wide and deep, I just sit and feel the promises I struggled to keep... and the silent vows He seemed to speak. (Verse 3) Yea.. that heavy silence, the one that used to scream inside my head? The constant replay of all the times I wished I was dead... Yeah, those broken pieces, I used to trip right over... Now, they're the foundation, a solid ground I stand... A silver lining amongst the dying, a fragile light in the decay, I found a tiny crack, a sliver of something real, And through it, a life I never thought I'd get to feel. It's not perfect, the scars are still there..., but they show the fight... And now I see the light. (Outro) How long did I stumble blind, through that thick, nasty fog, My inner compass shattered, just lost... He Pulled me back... a Damned soul.., burning in the fire... Trapped in the twisted hallways of my own selfish desires... Spinning and spiraling down, a silent, desperate scream, Just wanting out, wanting to end this bad dream. But the chains? They're broken. The darkness is bleeding out, And the ground I once cursed now fuels a different route. So let 'em talk their verses, their comfortable, easy lines, They ain't seen the shift.., the real, deep divine.. Till I collapse..., I won't relapse... no longer stuck behind... Walk by Faith... Not by sight..., Then you too, can see the light...,
