LYRICS:
Iβve seen the photographs; Iβve seen the women on my screens.Β
Itβs heavy on my mind why they seem happier than me.Β
And Iβve been running βround,Β
Chasing down who I think I should be,Β
Who I should be.Β
It keeps me up at night.Β
These expectations always seemβ―
Too heavy, how can Iβ―Β
Find truth when itβs so hard to see?Β
Cause itβs like trying to findβ―Β
A drop inside an ocean far too deep.Β
HmmΒ
But then I hear YouΒ
When I feel alone.Β
Your voice can heal me,β―Β
Save me from myself.
You take my weightβ―Β
And carry it away.Β

And I rememberβ―Β
Iβm beloved. Iβm divineβΒ
Divine in nature,Β
And Iβm perfectly designed.Β
When I donβt feel wanted,Β
You call me beloved.Β
I tune the noises out,
And in the silence I can seeΒ
You love me more than life,Β
And Your love is all the hope I need.β―Β
The proof is in the starsβ―Β
And in the scars You took for all of me.Β
Sometimes I hear YouΒ
When I feel alone.Β
Your voice can heal me,Β
Save me from myself.Β
I know who I amΒ
No matter where I go.Β
