I Followed Through

लिरिक्स

[Verse 1] Yeah, I came from the nights when the streetlights flickered, Dreams in my pocket but the world's hands quicker, Everybody talking like they know my story, But they never saw the nights I was chasing glory. I had doubts in my head, had weight on my chest, Had a thousand little voices saying I ain't the best, Still I stepped through the door when they told me don't enter, Turned the coldest December into heat in the winter. [Pre-Chorus] I remember being broke, counting coins on the floor, Now I'm building something they can't ignore. Every closed door taught me where to knock, Every hard year put a flame in the clock. [Chorus] I kept moving when the road got steep, Held my promise when it cost my sleep. You can call it luck, but you weren't there When I stitched my courage from a threadbare prayer. Now I stand tall with the past in view, Not because it was easy—because I followed through. [Verse 2] I learned patience from the bus ride home, Learned to make a meal from what I had alone. Friends came close when the numbers got right, But you stayed beside me through the longest night. I keep old receipts in a box by the bed, Little proof of the life I was trying to mend. If the fear starts talking, I answer back: I have crossed worse miles with a lighter pack. [Bridge] So if you see me quiet, I'm not falling apart, I'm protecting the work that I carried by heart. No borrowed crown, no shortcut route, Just one more step till the doubt burns out. [Chorus] I kept moving when the road got steep, Held my promise when it cost my sleep. You can call it luck, but you weren't there When I stitched my courage from a threadbare prayer. Now I stand tall with the past in view, Not because it was easy—because I followed through. [Outro] I followed through, I followed through, One more step, then another one too.
