The Cost of Survival

Verse 1

I’ve been walking through the fire alone

Trying to build what I’ve never known

Every scar got a story to tell

Every fall was a step through hell

Pre-Chorus

They see the smile, but they don’t see the cost

All the battles, all the nights I lost

Chorus

These are the pieces of me I can’t hide

Broken and strong at the very same time

I didn’t choose every road that I walked

But I’m still here… yeah, I still fought

Verse 2

Tried to fit in a world so cold

But I learned I don’t need that mold

Every “no” made me stand up tall

Now I’m not afraid to fall

Chorus

These are the pieces of me I can’t hide

Broken and strong at the very same time

I didn’t choose every road that I walked

But I’m still here… yeah, I still fought
