M500A - Part 1

Yeah… 
Been quiet so long I forgot how loud my mind gets 
Every thought’s a sermon, every breath—confess

Learning how to live with the noise inside 
How to stand my ground when my hands wanna hide 
How to sit in a room that won’t stop spinning 
Tell myself “it’s okay” and actually mean it 
Healing ain’t peace, it’s collision 
It’s finding calm without permission 
It’s losing what I thought I’d be 
And still saying—this is me

I been learning how to sit still, not quit 
Learning I can rest and still exist 
Took my solitude and called it school 
Turned my pain into something useful 
I don’t need applause to feel alive 
Just truth that cuts but doesn’t divide 
Yeah, I’ve been breaking, but not in vain 
Every scar I got’s a teacher by name

This body been through war I didn’t choose 
Every flare a memory I can’t refuse 
Some days I fight, some days I fold 
But I keep waking up—that’s gold 
Used to think moving proved I was fine 
Now I know stillness saves my spine 
It’s not surrender, it’s survival 
A quiet kind of revival

This ain’t isolation, it’s refinement 
Pressure been carving out alignment 
I stopped begging the storm to stop 
Now I breathe until the thunder drops

I been learning how to sit still, not quit 
Learning I can rest and still exist 
Took my solitude and called it school 
Turned my pain into something usable 
I don’t need applause to feel alive 
Just truth that cuts but doesn’t divide 
Yeah, I’ve been breaking, but not in vain 
Every scar I got’s a teacher by name

If this is what survival sounds like 
Then let the quiet hold the mic 
Yeah… I’m still listening.
I'm still listening...

I been learning how to sit still, not quit  
Learning I can rest and still exist  
Took my solitude and called it school  
Turned my pain into something usable  
I don’t need applause to feel alive  
Just truth that cuts but doesn’t divide  
Yeah, I’ve been breaking, but not in vain  
Every scar I got’s a teacher by name
