Lyrics

Mm...
Nobody teaches you
How to outgrow your old self...
Mm...
I had to lose who I was
To become who I am
I had to walk through the dark
With no map in my hands
I had to break every wall
I built out of fear
Now the silence inside me
Finally sounds clear
Aya malembe
Aya malembe
Eh ya le
Eh ya le oh
There was a version of me
Who needed approval
To feel valuable
Who confused attention
With love
Who stayed too long
In places that felt empty
Because loneliness
Looked heavier than pain
And maybe that's how we lose ourselves
Not all at once
But slowly
By ignoring what hurts
Until we no longer recognize
Our own reflection
Every wound I avoided
Returned louder
Every truth I escaped
Waited for me in silence
I had to lose who I was
To become who I am
I had to walk through the dark
With no map in my hands
I had to break every wall
I built out of fear
Now the silence inside me
Finally sounds clear
Healing isn't beautiful every day
Sometimes it looks like isolation
Like distance
Like ending conversations
You once begged to keep alive
Sometimes growth feels like grief
Because becoming someone new
Requires mourning
Who you used to be
And still...
You continue
Because somewhere beneath the pain
You can feel your soul returning
No more pretending now...
No more shrinking...
No more asking permission to exist...
The hardest part wasn't losing people
The hardest part
Was learning not to abandon myself anymore
Still rising...
Still healing...
Still becoming...
Still here...
I had to lose who I was
To become who I am
I had to walk through the dark
With no map in my hands
I had to break every wall
I built out of fear
Now the silence inside me
Finally sounds clear
And for the first time...
I no longer fear who I'm becoming...
