đ INTRO (spoken, close mic, intimate)
I donât think people understand
how heavy it gets
when your own mind
stops feeling like homeâŠ
but I stayed.
đ VERSE 1 (spoken / half-sung)
Iâve been the version of me
that stayed too long
in places I knew were wrong
smiling through it
breaking quietly
acting like it didnât hurt
but it did.
and I got tired
of disappearing inside myself
just to make it easier
for everyone else.
đ«ïž PRE-CHORUS (spoken, emotional rise)
So I started doing something newâŠ
I started choosing me
even when it felt uncomfortable
even when it felt selfish
even when it felt unfamiliar
⥠CHORUS (simple, chantable, festival vocal hook)
I choose me
I choose me
every single day
I choose peace
I choose healing
I choose my way
I am not lucky
I am aligned
Iâm still here
and Iâm still mine
đ VERSE 2 (spoken, grounded)
They donât see the nights
I had to rebuild myself
from nothing but silence
no applause
no audience
just me
learning how to breathe again
and I did.
slowlyâŠ
imperfectlyâŠ
but I did.
đ« BRIDGE (spoken softer, almost breaking)
Mental health mattersâŠ
I wish someone told me that sooner
not as a quote
but as a lifeline
because I almost didnât make it
to this version of me
đ
FINAL CHORUS (bigger, emotional lift)
I choose me
I choose me
even now
I choose light
I choose life
I choose how
I am not broken
I am becoming
I am here
and Iâm not running
đ OUTRO (spoken, calm)
Peace didnât come to meâŠ
I went to it
and I stayed there
this time.
