You Hold the Light

[Verse 1] I know what it feels like To wake up scared again To carry silent battles Under tired skin To smile through the shaking While your mind is running wild Trying to hold together The scared inside the child But every storm that chased you Never took your name And every time you fell apart You still got up again [Chorus] You hold the light Even in the dark Even when anxiety Leaves shadows on your heart You are not the fear You are not the doubt You're the voice inside that says "I'm not giving up now" One breath, one step, one day at a time You've had the power all along to survive You hold the light [electric guitar lead riff] [Verse 2] Some days feel like drowning Some nights never end You fight invisible wars No one else can understand But healing isn't weakness And breaking doesn't mean you lose Sometimes the strongest people Are the ones still choosing to move And every scar you carry Is proof you made it through The world may try to shake you But it cannot silence you [Chorus] You hold the light Even in the dark Even when anxiety Leaves shadows on your heart You are not the fear You are not the doubt You're the voice inside that says "I'm not giving up now" One breath, one step, one day at a time You've had the power all along to survive You hold the light [Bridge] There's no finish line for healing No perfect way to grow But every time you face the fear You take back your control And maybe that's the victory To finally understand The light you've been searching for Was always in your hands [Chorus] You hold the light So let it shine tonight For every soul still learning How to win their fight You are not broken You were never too far gone You're still here, still breathing Still becoming strong One heart, one hope, one chance to rise And the person who can save you Has been there the whole time You hold the light [Outro] [piano returns, strings fade] So if you're barely hanging on And the road feels hard tonight Keep walking through the darkness 'Cause you already hold the light
