Lyrics
Intro (Soft Soul Vocal)
For a long time...
I thought healing meant forgetting.
Turns out...
Healing meant surviving without becoming bitter.
Hook (Soul Vocal)
I sent your name upward
Not because you deserved it
But because I was tired
Of carrying the weight of it
I set the hurt down gently
And let heaven sort it through
The greatest freedom I ever found
Was finally releasing you
Verse 1 (Soul-Rap)
There was a season
When anger rented space in my chest
Paid no bills
Contributed nothing
Yet somehow occupied every room
I replayed conversations
Like courtroom evidence
Searching for justice
In memories that couldn't testify
Meanwhile life kept moving
Sunrises kept arriving
And I was standing still
Guarding old wounds
Like they were family heirlooms
That's when I realized
Pain can become an identity
If you don't challenge the lease
Hook (Soul Vocal)
I sent your name upward
Not because you deserved it
But because I was tired
Of carrying the weight of it
I set the hurt down gently
And let heaven sort it through
The greatest freedom I ever found
Was finally releasing you
Verse 2 (Soul-Rap)
Forgiveness gets misunderstood.
People think it means approval.
It doesn't.
It means refusing
To let somebody else's actions
Own real estate in your future.
I know women
Who rebuilt entire lives
From emotional rubble.
Women who learned
That closure isn't always delivered.
Sometimes it's constructed.
Brick by brick.
Boundary by boundary.
Prayer by prayer.
And that's sacred work.
Bridge (Soul Vocal)
I stopped asking
Why it happened.
And started asking
Who I wanted to become afterward.
Breakdown (Soul-Rap)
That question changed everything.
Because survival was never the finish line.
Transformation was.
Final Hook (Big Soul Vocal)
I sent your name upward
And watched my spirit breathe again
The storm finally loosened
Its grip against my skin
I can't rewrite the chapters
Or erase what I've been through
But I can choose the woman
Who steps forward when they're through
Outro
I wish healing on me.
I wish healing on you.
I wish peace on every heart
Still carrying what it should've released.
And tonight...
I'm finally light enough
To fly.
