My peace keeps me👊

Intro] Wake up, same face in the mirror (I see you) New day, new space gettin' clearer Deep breath, feet flat on the floor Set my mind right Then I'm headed for the door [Verse 1] Incense curlin', window cracked just a little Phone facedown, I ain't tappin' in the middle Of my peace, of my breath, of my quiet Heart talk soft, world loud, I don't buy it gonna appreciate , sun on the sill List out the feelings that I'm tryna unfill I ain't tryna walk round bitter and defensive I'ma switch the lens, make love my incentive I don't wanna be angry, carry that fire Burn my own house tryna aim it higher I don't wanna be jealous, watchin' other folks win Got my own path, my own way I begin I don't wanna be worried 'bout what might break Fear in my chest? That's a heavy-ass weight Every inhale, I let it all slide Every exhale, I come back to my side [Chorus] Every day I create my space Bring back spirit, light this place I ain't gotta lie to me to feel alright I just breathe in truth till my chest feels light I'ma walk out calm, still shine so bright Raise the vibration when I step in sight Unaffected by the storms I see I keep my peace, my peace keeps me (yeah, yeah) I keep my peace, my peace keeps me [Verse 2] Walk down the block, same chaos, same traffic Honks, side-eyes, people movin' so rapid Somebody bump my shoulder, don't even say a word Old me would've snapped, now that thought sound absurd I let it pass, like clouds on a Sunday I got joy in my pocket like it's pay day Smile at the stranger with the furrow in his brow Tiny little shift, he half-smile back now I don't wanna take things personal, that's poison Everybody fightin' up a hill of they own choice and I don't wanna be fearful of they mood swings I protect my center, that's the one true thing Strong meditation when I sit in the cut See my thoughts run wild, I don't chase, I don't judge Just a watcher in the room of my mind Turn the clutter into color, let my whole soul shine [Chorus] Every day I create my space Bring back spirit, light this place I ain't gotta lie to me to feel alright I just breathe in truth till my chest feels light I'ma walk out calm, still shine so bright Raise the vibration when I step in sight Unaffected by the storms I see I keep my peace, my peace keeps me (ohh, yeah) I keep my peace, my peace keeps me [Bridge] I don't need their praise to feel like I'm enough I don't need their shade to tell me I am tough I just set my pace, settle in my skin What I carry in my heart is how the day begins I turn hurt into healing with a change of view Bless what I been through, bless what I'm walkin' to Every step, every breath, that's my quiet song I bring light with me, and I pass it along [Chorus] Every day I create my space Bring back spirit, light this place I ain't gotta lie to me to feel alright I just breathe in truth till my chest feels light I'ma walk out calm, still shine so bright Raise the vibration when I step in sight Unaffected by the storms I see I keep my peace, my peace keeps me [Outro] Head out the door, yeah, I'm set, I'm aligned World might shake, but it don't shake my mind Wherever I go, that's where love gon' grow I stay rooted in my soul, let the whole thing glow
