1K followers means something to me. THANK YOU🫶🏻

I was whisperin’ in the dark before anybody listened

Voice crackin’ through the silence, heart sittin’ heavy in the distance

Tryin’ to stitch my soul together with just a notebook, no rhythm

Hopin’ somebody somewhere might survive just because I shared it

Every scar became a poem, then lyrics

Every tear turned into a page

But here’s the thing…

If I hide behind perfection

Then the truth dies wrapped in chains

So I learned to sit with it, let the ugly breathe

Let the broken parts exist

’Cause somebody needs to hear

They ain’t alone in this (you’re not)

Yeah, I write about hunger

Bodies burnin’ in the dark

Sweat, temptation, fingers dragging down skin

And this shattered fragile heart

I had to learn that real desire isn’t violence

And passion isn’t hate

Now I don’t need another somebody broken

Just to make my art feel great

There’s enough cold in the world

Enough souls gettin’ traumatized

So I’d rather make somebody feel wanted

Than profit off the divide

Erotic, honest, imperfect, raw

That’s who and what I am (that’s me)

I’m one thousand reasons

Still standin’ in compassion through it all

And maybe I can’t save the world

But if one soul stays alive tonight

Then every wound I reopen

(by writing and reliving)

Is worth the fight

I have a thousand reasons to keep speakin’

One thousand reasons (ooooh)

A thousand hearts that gave my hurt meanin’

One thousand reasons (mmmm)

Lyric Lab and The Guild — I feel you carryin’

Warriors of Compassion givin’ me reason to keep givin’

I won’t throw hate into a beat (won’t do it)

Don’t need fake wars for streams or attention on repeat

I’d rather build somebody up than tear ’em down just for fun

Because every soul that stands beside me makes me stronger than I was

They said wear a mask (can’t do it)

Smile pretty, play the role

Keep the pain behind the curtain

Never let the real stuff show (not me)

But connection isn’t aesthetic

It’s the trembling in your voice

It’s the truth nobody profits from

And can’t remain a choice

So I speak for every quiet soul

Too exhausted to type (I got you)

Every Survivor wide awake

At three in the morning fighting life

And if my honesty offends ‘em

Then let ’em turn away

I’d rather be human and messy

Than polished, cold, and fake (mm hmm)

’Cause being seen is medicine

When the loneliness cuts too deep

Sometimes the strongest thing you do

Is let somebody listen and see

I have a thousand reasons to keep speakin’

One thousand reasons (ooooh)

A thousand hearts that gave my hurt meanin’

One thousand reasons (mmmm)

Lyric Lab and The Guild — I feel you carryin’

Warriors of Compassion givin’ me reason to keep breathin’

And to my thousand followers - thank you endlessly

For understandin’ what my health keeps demandin’ from me

I can’t always like or listen back

But you still hold me up without attack

You let me be flawed, unfinished, real

And that kind of love?

It keeps buildin’ me up, it heals (mmm hmmm)

I write lust, I write longing

I write bodies, breath, and flame

But I never needed hatred

Just to make somebody say my name

No diss tracks, no venom for applause

No turnin’ pain into sport

We got enough people bleedin’ in the world already

Why not make music that reminds somebody they’re worthy?

So here’s my gratitude

In every authentic line

You gave my voice a home

When I gave up mine (I appreciate you)

I have a thousand reasons to believe now

One thousand reasons

One thousand reasons

A thousand lights surroundin’ me somehow

One thousand reasons

One thousand reasons

Lyric Lab and The Guild — my found family

Warriors of Compassion standin’ beside me

And every person hearin’ this tonight

Thank you for remindin’ me my voice survived

If my story helps one heart hold on

Then every shattered piece of mine belongs

I’m here

Because I’m one thousand reasons strong (ooooh)

I have

A thousand reasons

To stay alive

A thousand reasons

To keep this fire inside

A thousand voices

Meetin’ mine in the dark

Turnin’ lonely people into art

THANK YOU
