Dj.DamianR - Coming Home

Verse 1

I pour out grace like water

But I’m thirsty too

Speaking to silence, wonder

If you feel it too

Loyal to moments, not promises broken

I whisper my hurting

You stay unspoken

Fingers trace memories

That ache in quiet devotion

Pre-Chorus

Hope got me locked in motion

Faith drowning deep in emotion

Almost, someday, holy longing

But I’m learning I’m worth choosing

Hook / Chorus

Loving you is starting to feel like prison

Why am I chained to a hope that won’t listen?

Thought freedom lived in your arms but I’m missing

Pieces of me every time that I give in

Still I wait like salvation’s coming

Heart frozen, pulse barely running

Is this love or a cage I’m praying in?

(Whispered: praying in… praying in…)

Verse 2

I replay our echoes in shadows

Hands that held, then let go

I traced the lines in your smile

Like a map I couldn’t follow

I wanted heaven in your eyes

But only found questions, soft sighs

I loved in silence, too afraid to speak

My devotion kept me on my knees

Pre-Chorus 2

Hope got me locked in devotion

Almost, someday, holy longing

I’m learning to be my own salvation

Bridge

Glitches in my heart, rewinding

Thoughts collide, still finding

Pieces of me, scattered, realigning

Every pause, every sigh, redefining

Breathe in the ache, exhale devotion

No more running from the ocean

I am the wave, I am the tide

I am the altar where love resides

Hook / Chorus Repeat

Loving you is starting to feel like prison

Why am I chained to a hope that won’t listen?

Thought freedom lived in your arms but I’m missing

Pieces of me every time that I give in

Still I wait like salvation’s coming

Heart frozen, pulse barely running

Is this love or a cage I’m praying in?

(Soft hum outro: “I’m praying… I’m praying…”)

Outro / Whispered

Almost holy, almost chosen

Learning love is me first

Glitches fade, silence opens
