[Verse 1]
Packed my bags on a Tuesday night
Left a note that said I'd be alright
Every corner held a ghost of my past
Every sunset felt like it wouldn't last
I was building walls I couldn't see
Till the walls started building around me
[Drop]
It sways and it swings and it bends
Till you make it your own
And the road keeps winding on
But I'm not the one who's lost
Every battle that I've won
Was worth the cost
[Verse 2]
Traded comfort for a suitcase and a train
Found a rhythm in the strangers I met
Every goodbye was a chance to reset
And the more I wandered, the more I knew
The only home I needed was the one I grew
[Chorus]
There's only so much you can learn in one place
The more that you wait, the more time that you waste
I'll work and I'll fight till I find a place of my own
It sways and it swings and it bends till you make it your own
[Verse 3]
Built a life from the dust and the stone
Learned to stand in the wind all alone
Every scar is a story I chose
Every door that I closed led to somewhere I rose
Now the ground underneath me is mine
And the world that once felt so unknown
Is the kingdom I built on my own
[Chorus]
There's only so much you can learn in one place
The more that you wait, the more time that you waste
I'll work and I'll fight till I find a place of my own
It sways and it swings and it bends till you make it your own
[Bridge]
And when the night feels endless and cold
I remember the stories I was told
That a heart can be a home if you let it be
And the only chains I wear are the ones I set free
So I'll stand in the storm, I'll dance in the rain
I'll turn every loss into something I gain
'Cause the place that I found wasn't waiting for me
It was built from the ashes of who I used to be
[Chorus]
There's only so much you can learn in one place
The more that you wait, the more time that you waste
I'll work and I'll fight till I find a place of my own
It sways and it swings and it bends till you make it your own
[Outro]
Let it go, let it go, let the silence break
Every step that I take is a choice I make
Let it go, let it go, watch the old world fade
I am not afraid, I am not afraid
