[Intro] Yeah… I won’t lie It hasn’t been easy But I’m still walking Still trusting [Verse 1] I had a map for every year of my life Thought if I worked hard, everything would align Some things went right, put a fire in my chest Some missed the mark, left me asking what’s next I smiled in the daylight, broke down after dark Kept saying, “I’m good,” with a crack in my heart Had to learn being strong ain’t pretending you’re fine Sometimes faith is one more step with no sign [Pre-Chorus — Repeat 2X] It didn’t happen like I wanted it to But every broken road kept leading to You I can’t see the ending, still I take the next step If You’re writing my story, I can trust what comes next [Chorus — Repeat 2X] It hasn’t been easy, but I’m still here Some things went right, some disappeared What I called a failure, You may call a seed Your purpose is better than the plans I made for me So I walk through the dark, I don’t walk alone Even in the silence, I know You’re close I don’t need the whole road, just the light where You are Your purpose is better—better than I planned [Verse 2] I watched good people turn into goodbyes Watched doors stay closed after praying all night Built a future on a deadline in my head When the date came and went, thought the dream was dead But You never asked me to control every page Only trust You enough for the step that I take So if this road is longer than I wanted it to be Let it shape me into who I’m supposed to be [Pre-Chorus — Repeat 2X] It didn’t happen like I wanted it to But every broken road kept leading to You I can’t see the ending, still I take the next step If You’re writing my story, I can trust what comes next [Chorus — Repeat 2X] It hasn’t been easy, but I’m still here Some things went right, some disappeared What I called a failure, You may call a seed Your purpose is better than the plans I made for me So I walk through the dark, I don’t walk alone Even in the silence, I know You’re close I don’t need the whole road, just the light where You are Your purpose is better—better than I planned [Bridge — Repeat 2X] If the answer is “wait,” I’ll wait with hope If the answer is “no,” help me let it go If You close that door, keep me close to Your heart What feels like an ending may be where You start I surrender the timeline, the pride, the control You see the whole picture—I see one broken road Even if tomorrow looks nothing like I knew I’d rather lose my plan than lose my faith in You [Final Chorus] It hasn’t been easy, but I’m still here I’ve walked through the pain, I’ve faced every fear What I called a failure, You were planting as a seed Your purpose was always better than my plans for me Now I walk through the dark knowing I’m not alone Even in the silence, I know You’re close I don’t need all the answers, I know who You are Your purpose is better—better than I planned [Outro — Repeat 3X] Not how I planned it Still in Your hands I don’t understand it But I know where I stand One step at a time I’ll go where You lead Your purpose is better Than the plans I made for me
