[Verse 1] You deserve a body that can carry you Water in the morning, a walk past the school Ask what hurts, then make the appointment Small honest habits count as an argument For staying, for feeling your feet on the ground For learning the shape of the strength you have found [Pre-Chorus] No one can do your healing for you But I can stand beside you while you do [Chorus] Build your health, build what you know Plant one good decision, let it grow Learn the numbers, give your plans some room to breathe You are worth the work you give yourself to be And when you rise, reach back, reach through A better life can start with you [Verse 2] Read a page, ask a question, change your mind Track what comes and goes; be gentle, be precise Save a little, make a plan you understand Let tomorrow find a steadier hand No shame in beginning where you are No race to prove how far you’ve come so far [Pre-Chorus] No one can do your choosing for you But we can trade the tools we learned to use [Chorus] Build your health, build what you know Plant one good decision, let it grow Learn the numbers, give your plans some room to breathe You are worth the work you give yourself to be And when you rise, reach back, reach through A better life can start with you [Bridge] Rest is not surrender Help is not defeat Every careful promise Makes the ground beneath [Final Chorus] Build your health, build what you know Plant one good decision, let it grow Learn the numbers, give your plans some room to breathe You are worth the work you give yourself to be And when you rise, reach back, reach through A better life can start with you [Outro] One step, then another We can help each other
