[Intro]
Yeah
I know what I carry
[Verse 1]
I got old pages folded in the back of my mind
Some names I hurt, some doors I left behind
I won't dress it up, I won't claim I was right
But I walked through the wreckage and I faced that night
Now I move with a purpose they can't confiscate
Every scar taught a lesson, every loss made me wait
You can count up my wrongs, put a file on my name
Still the hand over my life ain't yours to claim
[Chorus]
I'm chosen, still standing, covered when I move
You can judge from the sidelines, I got nothing to prove
Keep your hands off my path, keep my name out your mouth
If you come to wreck my life, yours may fall apart now
Mind your business, let me walk my road
I answer to the One who already knows
[Verse 2]
You can talk to the crowd, you can sharpen your case
But a borrowed little throne is a dangerous place
I don't need your approval, I don't fear your review
I know what I did, and I know what I grew through
Mercy met me plainly, not a pass, not a lie
Just a chance to stand honest and keep reaching the sky
So don't make me your target, don't mistake me for weak
Some doors close on the ones who won't let others breathe
[Chorus]
I'm chosen, still standing, covered when I move
You can judge from the sidelines, I got nothing to prove
Keep your hands off my path, keep my name out your mouth
If you come to wreck my life, yours may fall apart now
Mind your business, let me walk my road
I answer to the One who already knows
[Bridge]
I own what I did, I don't live on my knees
I can ask for forgiveness and still set boundaries
No threats from my lips, no revenge in my plans
But don't pull at a thread you don't understand
[Final Chorus]
I'm chosen, still standing, covered when I move
You can judge from the sidelines, I got nothing to prove
Keep your hands off my path, keep my name out your mouth
If you come to wreck my life, yours may fall apart now
Mind your business, let me walk my road
I answer to the One who already knows
[Outro]
Mind your business
I know who holds my road
