Scars

I remember the nights when I questioned my worth All the weight on

my shoulders, all the dust in the dirt Every loss felt heavy,

every failure still hurt But I learned how to grow from the

worst of the worst They see where I'm standing,

they don't know where I've been See the light on my face,

never saw through the dim Every battle left a mark,

every loss taught a lesson Now I wear every scar like a

piece of protection

I can't erase it I will not replace it Every mistake Helped

me create this

Every bruise

Every crack

Made me stronger

Looking back

These are my SCARS,

every one got a fucking story Some came from the pain,

some came chasing fucking glory

I don't hide the marks,

I don't run from the memories Every scar on my heart made

the person you're seeing These are my SCARS,

yeah, I carry them proud They remind me of the days I

was lost in the crowd I was broken for a minute,

but I'm standing right now Every scar says I made it

— and I'm making it out

I got scars from the people I trusted the most From the

times I gave everything,

got left in the cold From the dreams I abandoned,

from the stories I told From the moments I thought I was

losing control But I won't let the past put a lock on

the future Won't let every mistake become part of my ruler I

can look at the damage without letting it rule me Turn the

pain into purpose, let the purpose improve me Now the scars aren't

chains, they're reminders instead Of the battles I fought and the roads

that I tread Every time that I doubt,

I remember what they said Then I look at those marks and

keep moving ahead

Don't erase me Don't change me

Every piece of my past Made me

I fell I broke I healed

I grew Now I know

What I can do

These are my SCARS,

every one got a fucking story Some came from the pain,

some came chasing the glory

I don't hide the marks,

I don't run from the memories Every scar on my heart made

the person you're seeing These are my SCARS,

yeah, I carry them proud They remind me of the days I

was lost in the crowd I was broken for a minute,

but I'm standing right now Every scar says I made it —

and I'm fucking making it out

Every mark

Every mistake

Every fall

Every break

I carry it all.

These

are my scars.
