Carve My Own

Letra

[Intro] They thought I’d stay where they left me But I found a door in the wall [Verse 1] Every time I reach, the floor gives way Back at the starting line, same old place Half-done dreams in a cardboard box Still got both feet, still got a pulse They put a course on my life, tried to steer me wrong Tried to make me doubt every prayer I’m on But I learned real power doesn’t need a throne When God walks with me, I’m never alone [Pre-Chorus] I’m tired, but I’m not finished Bruised, but I’m still in it They can write their plans in stone I’ll carve my own [Chorus] Back to back, I’m coming through One more wall, one more breakthrough What was meant to bind my hands Falls apart when I take my stand No curse can outlast this faith No dark design can seal my fate I won’t quit, I won’t crawl With God beside me, I’ll break it all [Verse 2] I carried words that were never mine Turned every wound into a warning sign Mama, I release what you tried to send But I won’t let your poison write my end You may have wished I would lose my way You may have prayed I would fade away But every setback taught me how to climb Every closed door sharpened this mind [Pre-Chorus] I’m tired, but I’m not finished Bruised, but I’m still in it They can write their plans in stone I’ll carve my own [Chorus] Back to back, I’m coming through One more wall, one more breakthrough What was meant to bind my hands Falls apart when I take my stand No curse can outlast this faith No dark design can seal my fate I won’t quit, I won’t crawl With God beside me, I’ll break it all [Bridge] I forgive what I can’t forget I choose the life I haven’t lived yet No more waiting for permission No more kneeling to superstition If I fall, I rise with proof If I’m tested, I become the truth [Final Chorus] Back to back, I’m coming through Every loss made me bulletproof What was meant to bind my hands Falls apart when I take my stand No curse can outlast this faith No dark design can seal my fate I won’t quit, I won’t crawl With God beside me, I’ll break it all [Outro] I’m not going back to the start line I’m crossing every finish line God with me That’s the answer
