FACE THE FEAR

I’ve been running from the mirror,

From the man I couldn’t stand,

Every scar became a warning,

Every failure took my hand.

I built walls around my heart,

Called them strength so I could hide,

But the things I feared the most

Were the things I kept inside.

I hear that voice saying,

“You’re never gonna make it,”

But I’m done believing

Every lie my fear created.

So I’ll face the fear,

Even when my hands are shaking,

I’ll stand right here,

Even when my heart is breaking.

I’ve spent too many years

Running from the person I could be,

Now I’m staring down the darkness

And it’s staring back at me.

If I fall, I’ll rise again,

If I break, I’ll learn to heal—

I’m not running anymore…

I’m gonna face the fear.

There were nights I felt defeated,

Like the world had passed me by,

Questioning if I was strong enough

To ever change my life.

But every tear became a lesson,

Every loss became a scar,

And I finally understood

I survived just being who I was.

Maybe courage isn’t fearless,

Maybe courage means you’re scared,

But you take another step

Because you know that you still care.

So I’ll face the fear,

Even when my hands are shaking,

I’ll stand right here,

Even when my heart is breaking.

I’ve spent too many years

Running from the person I could be,

Now I’m staring down the darkness

And it’s staring back at me.

If I fall, I’ll rise again,

If I break, I’ll learn to heal—

I’m not running anymore…

I’m gonna face the fear.

Maybe I’m not who I was,

Maybe I’m not who I’ll become,

But I’m still here breathing

When I thought I’d come undone.

And if the future scares me,

Let it come and test my soul—

I’d rather fight for who I am

Than die afraid of losing control.

I’ll face the fear,

Let it scream inside my head,

I’ll face the years

That I thought were better left dead.

I’m done hiding from my shadow,

Done pretending I’m not scared.

The darkness doesn’t own me—

I’m the one who’s standing there.

If I fall, I’ll rise again,

If I break, I’ll learn to heal—

This time I’m not running…

I’M GONNA FACE THE FEAR.

The fear is still here…

But so am I.
