NO ONE IS COMING TO SAVE YOU

Lyrics

(Verse 1) I waited years for someone wiser To arrive and name the road Thought a hand would reach beneath me Lift the weight I couldn't hold I made altars out of waiting Built excuses out of pain Told myself the door was hidden While I stood beside the frame Every promise from another Kept me sleeping one more night Till I saw the cruelest comfort Was believing I'd be rescued by the light (Pre-Chorus) There comes a moment Sharp and clean When every borrowed answer ends And what remains Is your own breath Your own hands Your own next step (Chorus) No one is coming to save you No rider through the rain No perfect voice will carry What you refuse to name No one is coming to save you And that is not despair It means the key was never missing It was always in your care Stand up slowly Feel the ground Let your own weight make a sound No one is coming to save you So become the one who stays (Verse 2) I blamed the walls around me I blamed blood, time and fate Blamed the ones who never saw me Blamed the ones who came too late Some of it was real, completely Some of it had cut me deep But pain can turn into a kingdom When we build a throne from grief I learned sorrow needs a witness But it cannot choose my way There is mercy in remembering And power in what I do today I don't need to call it justice When I finally choose myself I can honour what was taken Without placing life upon a shelf (Pre-Chorus) There comes a silence After blame Where all the noise begins to thin And underneath The old excuses Something living starts within (Chorus) No one is coming to save you No rider through the rain No perfect voice will carry What you refuse to name No one is coming to save you And that is not despair It means the key was never missing It was always in your care Stand up slowly Feel the ground Let your own weight make a sound No one is coming to save you So become the one who stays (Verse 3) I found courage wasn't shining It was ordinary, small Making breakfast after heartbreak Answering when duty called It was leaving what was poison Though I still could feel the pull It was saying one clear sentence When my mouth was used to dull It was sleeping without chasing Those who never chose to remain It was breathing through the pressure Without turning hurt to blame It was learning self-respect Doesn't always roar or fight Sometimes it is simply choosing Not to disappear tonight (Bridge) There is no sacred hand above me Pulling every thread in place There are choices There are seasons There are wounds I have to face There are people who can love me There are guides along the road There are shoulders I can lean on But they cannot walk my soul Help is holy Love is needed Community can hold the flame But no one else can enter The exact place where I change (Breakdown) Take your anger Take your grief Take the truth beneath your teeth Take the promise You abandoned When survival became belief Put your feet back in your life now Feel the floor beneath the skin You don't have to know the ending You only have to begin (Verse 4) I used to think that being chosen Would repair what had been torn That the right love, right teacher, right moment Would reveal what I was for Now I know that love can meet me But it cannot make me whole Wholeness isn't someone's gift box Placed politely at my door It is built through every boundary Every truth I dare to keep Every time I choose awareness Over patterns running deep And the strange thing about freedom Is how quiet it can be No trumpet sounded when I noticed I was finally choosing me (Final Chorus) No one is coming to save you No miracle from afar No stranger holds the missing piece Of everything you are No one is coming to save you And now I understand Freedom isn't being carried It is learning how to stand Not alone Not without love Not pretending I don't need But awake enough to know Which step belongs to me No one is coming to save you So I stopped waiting at the door I became responsible For the life I asked for (Outro) The night did not become easier The road did not become straight The past did not rewrite itself And nothing changed by fate But something in me stopped waiting Something in me became clear I did not need a rescuer I needed to become present And remain here
