**What We Leave Behind** **Verse 1** Every word's a little spark, Every step can light the dark. Every silence, every sound, Plants a seed beneath the ground. **Pre-Chorus** We never see how far they go, The quiet things we'll never know. **Chorus** 'Cause we're all leaving footprints, On roads we'll never find. Some will fade with morning rain, Some will outlast time. May the echoes carry kindness, When our voices can't be found. We're all leaving footprints, In hearts we've never known. **Verse 2** Every door we choose to close, Changes where another goes. Hands can lift or let them fall; Love is in the smallest call. **Pre-Chorus** We never know whose sky turns blue, Because of something small we do. **Chorus** 'Cause we're all leaving footprints, On roads we'll never find. Some will fade with morning rain, Some will outlast time. May the echoes carry kindness, When our voices can't be found. We're all leaving footprints, In hearts we've never known. **Bridge** If every stone can stir the sea, If every flame can start a fire, Then let my days, however small, Leave more hope than they require. No one owns tomorrow's story; We only write today's. So let my hands speak gently now, Long after I've gone away. **Final Chorus** We're all leaving footprints, Whether we mean to or not. Some become another's shelter, Some become their scars. So may the echoes carry mercy, Long beyond our names. We're all leaving footprints— Choose them well today.
