If I Die

If I die, let the moon hold my name

Let the wind whisper softly through the silence and the rain

I've been walking through fire just to find some peace

With a heart full of scars that never found release

I gave love so pure, and I hope they still remember

Faced all my battles while the nights grew colder

Held on through the nights when I cried in my sleep

Still I smiled for the world, but the ache ran deep

If I die, don’t remember my pain

Remember the love I gave through the strain

Tell them I tried, even when I was tired

Tell them my soul burned, but never expired

I lived through the darkness with hope in my eyes

So if I die... let me still rise

They saw my strength, but not the battles I’ve won

Just an ordinary human who stood when everything came undone

I held my loved ones with courage in my veins

Still dreaming of love that could ease all my pains

And I don’t want your pity, just your truth

I was more than the wounds, more than lost youth

I fought for my life with a whisper, not a scream

Still chasing the light inside every dream

If I die, don’t bury my voice

Let it linger in hearts not a silence, a choice

Tell them I loved even when I was bruised

Tell them I rose even when I was used

I gave all I had and I gave it with pride

So if I die... let my soul shine wide

If I die, let me go with peace

Wrapped in the songs I never released

With love on my lips and fire in my chest

If I die... just know I gave my best
