Was I Enough

[Verse 1] Counted down the days until they read the names Every win I stacked felt like it fed the flames The numbers told a story — thought I wrote it right But someone changed the ending on a Sunday night [Pre-Chorus] I left it on the floor I left it on the line So why am I the only one still waiting for a sign? [Chorus] Was I enough? Tell me was I enough? My name's not on the list, my name's not on the wall I gave you everything — blood and bone and sweat Was I enough, or just the easiest to forget? [Verse 2] Sixty-eight doors opened, mine stayed shut instead Watched them pop the champagne in a room inside my head I'll shake the hands of everyone who gets to dance But tonight I'm driving home, replaying every chance [Pre-Chorus] I didn't miss a morning I didn't dodge the hurt So tell me how you weighed it all and told me what I'm worth [Chorus] Was I enough? Tell me was I enough? My name's not on the list, my name's not on the wall I gave you everything — blood and bone and sweat Was I enough, or just the easiest to forget? [Bridge] They're breaking down the bracket on a screen I can't turn off Every pundit with an answer for the ways I fell short They never felt the 5 AMs, the ice baths or the tears They're grading someone's life's work with a spreadsheet and a beer [Final Chorus] Maybe I wasn't enough for them — but I was enough for me Every morning that I laced them up was proof I still believed My name's not on the wall — but it's written on my bones I was enough — even standing here alone [Outro] Was I enough... I was enough
