I want to give you something that perhaps you never had,
I want to let you hear these words and know that you're believed.
You have been swallowed by a swamp of lies,
convincing you that you're useless and weak,
and in that swamp you began to lose yourself ,
thinking you would die forever young.
I will not lie and pretend to you
that the long road to recovery will not be hard,
with plenty of cracks along the way,
but a clean slate can exist,
you don't have to surrender yourself
into the burning hell that they convinced you
is where you belong.
Your broken soul has been held captive for too long now,
you need to start believing that you are strong.
We have the strength to overcome their darkness,
and claim back exactly who we are!
Please stop living a disguised life in fear,
with no shoulder to cry on.
Use the words you know you want to say,
the ones you feel in the pit of your stomach
grabbing at your lungs and tickling your tongue!
Everyone is ready to hear your story,
we are listening and waiting to believe!
Someone is always waiting to let you know,
that you have a choice to use your voice
and let go of this heavy silence.
