I Learned How To Stay letra

Breathing in
Nothing to prove

I spent years chasing reflections
In other people’s eyes
Trying to hear my own name
In borrowed replies

I confused love with permission
Silence with peace
But my heart was asking softly
For me

I stopped running from mirrors
I stayed when it got real
I learned the difference
Between being wanted
And being whole

I learned how to stay
Without asking for more
I learned how to love
Without bleeding on the floor

I don’t need to be chosen
To finally belong
I learned how to stay
Inside my own song

My hands stopped shaking at endings
My voice found its tone
I don’t fear empty rooms now
They feel like home

Some loves pass through your life
Just to show
That the deepest one
Is the one you grow

I don’t rewrite my story
I let it breathe
Every scar became language
Every flaw stayed with me

I learned how to stay
When the lights go low
I learned how to care
Without needing control

I don’t beg for forever
I live what is true
I learned how to stay
Being me, fully me

I am not late
I am not broken
I am not half of anything
I am the love
I kept giving away

I learned how to stay
When love comes and goes
I learned how to walk
Without losing my soul

If no one is watching
I still sing along
I learned how to stay
Inside my own song

I learned how to stay
When love comes and goes
I learned how to walk
Without losing my soul

If no one is watching
I still sing along
I learned how to stay
Inside my own song (my own song)

Still here
Still alive
Still mine
