[Verse 1] Life in fragments, broken glass in my palms Built a house outta hope, watched it crumble to psalms Every dream I had turned to dust in the rain I lay down with the pieces, make a bed outta pain I been running from mirrors, they tell me the truth Every scar got a story I never conclude I want peace, want a place where my name feels known Somewhere silence don’t echo, somewhere I call home [Pre-Hook] I take one step forward, then I question my way Got a habit of lighting my bridges in flames Every time that I’m close, I just pull the pin Guess the war in my head keeps on pulling me in [Hook] Still miles to go, with this weight on my soul Trying to find that road that will make me whole I see light in the distance, but it fades so slow I’m walking through the dark, yeah I know Still miles to go [Verse 2] I sabotage blessings like I don’t deserve ‘em When progress knocks, I pretend I ain’t heard ‘em Small wins on the table, I sweep ‘em aside Tell myself “tomorrow,” let today die I build walls from my doubts, call it self-defense Every chance that I get, I just over-offend I’m tired of surviving, I want something real But my hands shake every time I start to heal [Pre-Hook] I pack my bags with regret, never leave the past Every promise I make, I don’t think it’ll last I’m scared if I stop, I’ll see what I’ve done So I keep on running though the race is just one [Hook] Still miles to go, with this weight on my soul Trying to find that road that will make me whole I see light in the distance, but it fades so slow I’m walking through the dark, yeah I know Still miles to go [Bridge] Maybe peace ain’t a place, maybe peace is a fight Maybe home is the moment I stop every night From tearing myself down for the sins I repeat From breaking the ground under my own two feet [Verse 3] I’m laying with the ruins, trying not to decay Whispering to the future, “I’ll be better someday” If I fall again, hope I learn how to land Not with fists full of fear, but with faith in my hands I don’t need a miracle, just a little control Over the voice in my head digging holes in my soul If I make it this far, maybe that’s how it goes One step, one breath… even broken I grow [Final Hook / Outro] Still miles to go, but I’m here on my feet Even shattered, I’m moving, even lost I believe If there’s a place for me, I’ll find it somehow Still miles to go… but I’m walking it now
