Prayed For Peace
Rising from Silence: Empowering Journey Through Painful Redemption
Lyrics
I could cry right now
I am emotionally overwhelmed and could express my sadness through tears at this moment.
Curl up and scream on the floor
I feel the urge to curl up and scream in distress while lying on the floor.
I'm not yours right now
Currently, I don't belong to you or anyone else.
I don't even miss you anymore
I've reached a point where I no longer miss you.
The silence is pleasing
The absence of noise is comforting to me.
Coz' I prayed for peace
I find solace in the quiet because I prayed for inner peace.
You buried me while
While you thought I was defeated, I rose to my feet.
I got you on your feet
You played a role in burying me, but I overcame it and stood strong.
Is that your reward
Is that the reward you expected for your actions?
Do you feel like a man
Do you feel like a man for what you've done?
Coz' I stayed
I stayed in the face of adversity when I should have run away.
When I should've ran
Now I am free from the constraints of the past.
And now I'm free
My voice is heard when I express myself loudly.
And I'm heard when I scream
Despite challenges, I don't easily break and bleed.
And I don't bleed
My past wounds don't define who I am.
My scars don't define me
I discovered my true self.
Myself I found
I feel ashamed of my association with you now.
I'm embarrassed by you now
There was a time when I was afraid, but I've grown stronger.
And once I was afraid
I prioritize myself above all else.
But I'm stronger than that now
I no longer recognize the person I used to be.
I'll always put me first
If you seek the girl you harmed, you'll need to search for her elsewhere.
I don't even recognise me
Repeat of line 21.
If you want the girl you hurt
If you want the girl you hurt, you'll have to go and find her.
You'll have to go and find her
Repeat of line 23.
You'll have to go and find her
-I could write so many wrongs
I have the ability to correct many mistakes.
I made it out on my own
I successfully navigated challenges on my own.
I guess I'm one of the lucky ones
I consider myself fortunate to have overcome difficulties.
I was told, so many times
I was warned multiple times that this person would bring harm into my life.
That this boy will end your life
I didn't believe it until I attempted to end my own life.
I didn't believe until I tried to end mine
Repeat of line 16.
Myself I found
Repeat of line 17.
I'm embarrassed by you now
Repeat of line 18.
And once I was afraid
Repeat of line 19.
But I'm stronger than that now
Repeat of line 20.
I'll always put me first
Repeat of line 21.
I don't even recognise me
Repeat of line 22.
If you want the girl you hurt
Repeat of line 23.
You'll have to go and find her
Repeat of line 24.
