I've been armored up hard in a cage Livin' my life like I'm stuck on a stage

Every emotion, I tucked it away Smilin' outside, but I'm breakin' each day

I thought bein' strong I never would've been Holdin' it in like it made me defend

But strength ain't silence, I see it now I'm layin' it down, I'm learnin' how

To feel without fear, to cry without shame To open my heart without playin' a game

I'm soft again, I'm breathin' in Lettin' my guard fall down, lettin' love in

I don't gotta fight, it's too existent I'm soft again, I deserve this

I've been survivin, not really alive Afraid if I feel, I might not survive

But healin' is gentle, it's patient, it's slow It's lettin' the parts of me finally show

I don't have to be hard to be worthy I don't have to suffer to grow

I'm soft again, and I'm finally home
