Hard Truth - ExChillCafe
I've seen the mornings without a name
Days that never felt the same
Walked through dust and empty rooms
Carried more than anyone knows
I've had nights that never end
No comfort calling like a friend
Still I stood when I should fall
Learned to answer every call
Don't need sympathy or light
I've been living through that fight
These hard truths I know them well
I've been walking through my hell
Every scar is just a sign
That I survived what time defined
These hard truths live inside of me
But they shape what I came to be
I know pain I know the cost
I know what it means to be lost
I've watched hope slip through my hands
Still I learned to understand
Even broken hearts can grow
Even wounds can learn to glow
No one had to walk my way
That's the price I had to pay
These hard truths I know them well
I've been walking through my hell
Every scar is just a sign
That I survived what time defined
These hard truths live inside of me
But they shape what I came to be
I know pain I know the cost
I know what it means to be lost
Still I breathe still I stand
With these lines across my hands
Nothing left to prove or hide
Just the truth I hold inside
These hard truths I wear them proud
Even when the world got loud
Every tear made me strong
Turned my silence into song
These hard truths they made me see
The strength that was inside of me
I know pain I know the cost
But I found what I thought was lost
Hard truths
Still I move
