Before I learned how to fly…

I had to lose everything that clipped my wings.

Before I knew peace…

I had to silence the noise inside me.

Let’s talk truth.

When you’re winnin’, keep quiet, let ‘em guess your path,

The loudest in the room often feel the wrath.

Let your work do the talkin’, stay low in the storm,

God builds warriors in silence - that’s how kings are born.

Stop tellin’ folks your plans - dreams don’t need defense,

Move in mystery, let 'em see the evidence.

You give love, don’t expect it to bounce back,

Some hearts pump stone, gotta live with that.

Every day you rise - it’s your second chance,

Be better than you were, no matter the stance.

And if you ain’t grateful for the air you breathe,

Then don’t expect harvest if you curse the seed.

Understand this, let the pain refine,

Let go of the weight that’s no longer divine.

You want freedom? Then work without time,

Push till you shine past every climb.

God adds, God takes - but He always aligns,

You’re losin’ friends 'cause you’re chasin’ the signs.

Understand this…

It’s your season to rise.

Sometimes you hold what’s meant to be dropped,

That grip’s your chain, it’s time it stopped.

If you wanna spend without starin’ at the price,

Then work so fierce you forget what time feels like.

God don’t need permission to clean your lane,

He’ll remove what poisons, even if it brings pain.

And when they walk out, don’t chase what’s gone,

They weren’t part of your race - just cheerin’ you on.

Truth is, life ain’t gettin’ easier, no…

But you? You're gettin’ strong with every blow.

Strength ain't loud - it builds in the silence,

In the moments you pray, in the trials, in defiance.

They left? Let 'em.

God makes space before He blesses.

And every day you wake up?

That’s grace…

Use it.

Understand this, when the sky goes dark,

The storm ain’t a curse - it’s a holy spark.

You were born to endure, to rebuild, to ignite,

You were made in His image - forged in the fight.

You want peace? Then earn it with soul,

Let go of what’s gone, grab tight to your role.

Understand this…

You’re not broken - you’re whole.

They’ll never understand your glow…

It’s not from the light.

It’s from the fire you walked through.

And still…

You rise.
