I Am Becoming (ft. Jake)

[Verse 1] I wake with the weight of a locked steel door Hands split open on the life I wore Every warning sign says stay in line I cut through the fence and I take what’s mine The clock keeps moving, so do I No borrowed crown, no alibi I feel the pressure, I hold my ground The person I want is being forged right now [Pre-Chorus] Let the old shape crack beneath me Let the doubt lose its grip I am done waiting for permission I am taking the next step [Chorus] I push past every barrier I burn through every wall I become the one I choose to be I rise each time I fall No gate can hold me under No voice can make me small I am here, I am changing now I am becoming it all [Verse 2] I carry the scars but they don’t decide What I build with the days I still have inside Every dead end turns into a place Where I learn the strength I refused to waste I speak my name with a steady tongue Not the ghost of who I was when I was young The ground shakes hard, but my feet stay set I have more to prove and nothing to regret [Pre-Chorus] Let the old shape crack beneath me Let the doubt lose its grip I am done waiting for permission I am taking the next step [Chorus] I push past every barrier I burn through every wall I become the one I choose to be I rise each time I fall No gate can hold me under No voice can make me small I am here, I am changing now I am becoming it all [Bridge] This breath is mine This hour is mine I draw the line And cross it alive I do not need a perfect road I only need to move The fear can follow where I go It does not choose what I become [Breakdown] Break the lock Cut the chain Take the hurt Shape the flame Stand up Step through I decide What comes true [Final Chorus] I push past every barrier I tear through every wall I become the one I choose to be I rise each time I fall No gate can hold me under No voice can make me small I am here, I am changing now I am becoming it all I push past every barrier With both hands on the future I leave the fear behind me And walk into the truth No gate can hold me under No force can make me crawl I am here, I am changing now I am becoming it all [Outro] I am becoming I am becoming The life I choose The self I prove I am becoming
