Woke up to the usual chorus in my head again
Every little whisper telling me where I don't fit in
Not smart enough to speak up when the room gets loud
Not bright enough to ever really make them proud
Measuring my worth in mirrors that distort my face
Chasing some perfection I can never quite replace
Every step I take feels like I'm falling short somehow
Like I should be more than who I am right now
But the noise gets tired if you let it run
And the truth sounds quiet when it finally come
I don't have to be shining
Don't have to win the race
I don't have to fix every broken piece in me today
Maybe it's enough breathing
Maybe it's okay to say
I'm not amazing not a mess I'm doing okay
Used to count my failures like they proved my name
Like every little stumble was a brand of shame
Not strong enough to hold it all without a crack
Not calm enough to keep my spinning mind on track
But maybe I'm just human in a human skin
Trying my best with the place I'm in
Maybe almost isn't something I should fear
Maybe good enough belongs right here
I don't need to silence every doubt I hear
Just let it pass like weather through the year
I don't have to be glowing
Don't have to save the day
I don't need to prove I'm more than who I am today
Maybe it's enough trying
Maybe it's okay to say
I'm not perfect not broken I'm doing okay
There's a middle ground between the highs and lows
Where the quiet kind of self-respect grows
Not a victory not defeat
Just steady breath and steady feet
And maybe peace isn't fireworks in the sky
Maybe it's just not asking yourself why
You aren't more than you can be
Right now just letting yourself be
I don't have to be brighter
Don't have to outrun the gray
I don't need to love myself in some impossible way
Maybe it's enough living
Maybe it's okay to say
I'm still learning still here I'm doing okay
Not everything is beautiful
Not everything's in pain
Some days are just quiet
And I'm doing okay
