I wrote the note, turned off the phone
No one knew, No one saw
I just wanted the pain to stop
Seventeen, lost in silence
Smile so fake, it became defiance
Locked in a room with a mind at war
Asking God: What am I living for?
He hides the cuts with long sleeves on
Prays at night, but hope feels gone
Mama's crying, daddy's cold
And friends stopped calling months ago
He stares at the bottle, the edge, the fall
One text away from ending it all
But something inside starts to speak
A whisper rising through the grief
Just breathe, I'm not done with you
This pain won't be the end of truth
I took the cross to carry yours
There's still a door, there's something more
Hold on, don't let go yet
Your story's not over with one more breath
Next morning, he wakes with tears
The Bible's open, first time in years
Reads of a Man who walked through pain
Who bled for love, who knew his name
He whispers: Jesus, if You're real
Then take this weight I cannot feel
And in the silence, light breaks through
A heart once numb starts beating new
To every soul feeling too far gone
He's right beside you all along
No blade, no lie, no weight too strong
His love is loud, and it goes on
Just breathe, He's not done with you
This storm will pass, His word is true
He took the cross to carry yours
There's still a door, there's something more
Hold on, don't let go yet
Your story's just starting with one more breath
One more breath
And I chose to live
