I’ve been wearing all my heartbreak like a badge I never earned,
Saying I’m fine while the edges burn.
Tried to drown my doubts in the noise downtown—
But the quiet always finds a way to pull me down.
I’m a mess in the mirror, but I’m owning it now,
Every crack in the glass still shows me how.

Yeah, I’m not fixed, but I’m still here—
Learning how to stand past the fear.

I’m bruised but believing,
Still fighting even when the world hits hard.
Yeah, I’m scarred but I’m breathing,
Every heartbeat banging like a brand-new start.
I don’t know where I’m heading,
But I’m stronger than the shadows in my chest.
I’m bruised but believing…
And I swear I ain’t finished yet.

I’ve been dragging all my failures like a weight around my bones,
Letting old mistakes turn my heart to stone.
But I’m tired of the replay, tired of the shame—
Time to give myself a break from the blame.
Yeah, the road’s been rough, but I’m climbing again,
Every scar on my skin is proof I lived.

I may fall down, but I rise slow—
Even broken things can still glow.

I’m bruised but believing,
Still fighting even when the world hits hard.
Yeah, I’m scarred but I’m breathing,
Every heartbeat banging like a brand-new start.
I don’t know where I’m heading,
But I’m stronger than the shadows in my chest.
I’m bruised but believing…
And I swear I ain’t finished yet.

Maybe grace don’t show up fast—
Maybe it builds when the worst times pass.
And if tomorrow needs a bit more faith,
I’ll give it what I’ve got today.

I’m bruised but believing,
Not perfect, but I’m learning how to rise.
Yeah, I’m scarred but I’m breathing,
And I’m done letting doubt take up my life.
I don’t know where I’m heading,
But I’m showing up with whatever strength is left.
I’m bruised but believing…
But I’m stronger than I’ve ever been yet.

Bruised…
But still believing.
