[Verse 1] The storm may rage, but I stay still My thoughts may race, yet I bend to will No anger now can take me down I see it rise – and let it drown [Chorus] Free from passion, free from pain What lies outside won’t rule again I choose the calm, I choose the light Only judgment makes wrong or right [Verse 2] A wave of fear may strike unplanned But I remember: it's in my hand To say, “This is not mine to bear” And once again, I'm light as air [Bridge] I release what isn’t mine What I don’t choose won’t cross the line As the Stoics taught, I live aware My soul stays calm, my mind is clear [Chorus] Free from passion, free from pain What lies outside won’t rule again I choose the calm, I choose the light Only judgment makes wrong or right [Outro] In every storm, a quiet face For I am free—inward—full of grace
