Invisible

[Verse]
I learned to speak in half-tones
To breathe without a sound
I learned how to be present
But never really found
They passed me like a shadow
On a wall they wouldn’t see
But I was always standing there
Still waiting to be me
 
[Pre-Chorus]
I kept my light behind my ribs
Afraid it’d burn too bright
But even hidden, even small
It kept me alive
 
[Chorus]
I was never invisible
I was just unheard
I was writing all my truths
Between the lines, between the words
If love is more than survival
If hope is more than pain
Then I will never become invisible
No more! I’m breaking every chain
 
[Instrumental]
 
[Verse 2]
I watched the world from a distance
Like glass between my hands
Every dream felt dangerous
Every "yes" unplanned
But silence has a breaking point
And fear can only last
So I stepped into the moment
And forgave myself the past
 
[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t need to be fearless now
I just need to be real
I don’t need to save the world
I just need to feel
 
[Chorus] 
I was never invisible
I was just unheard
I was writing all my truths
Between the lines, between the words
If love is more than survival
If hope is more than pain
Then I will never become invisible
No more! I’m breaking every chain
 
[Bridge]
Let them say I came too late
Let them say I missed my chance
I was busy becoming whole
I was busy learning how to stand
There’s no shame in moving slowly
There’s no shame in healing scars
Every step I ever took
Still brought me where we are
 
[Chorus]
I was never invisible
I was just unheard
I was writing all my truths
Between the lines, between the words
If love is more than survival
If hope is more than pain
Then I will never become invisible
No more! I’m breaking every chain
 
[Outro]
So when the lights go out again
And the night asks who I am
I’ll answer without a shred of doubt
I am
