Verse 1

The guns went quiet, but the days feel long

I built these walls, now I’m walking on

A new world waits past the broken gate

I’m done letting boredom decide my fate

I want a girl who can laugh with me

Who sees the man I’m still learning to be

No crown, no script, just an honest start

Two steady hands and an open heart

Chorus

I’m alive, I’m here, I’m ready to begin

With the dust behind me and the dawn within

I’ll make a place where the good days grow

And find someone real as we learn to let go

I’m alive, I’m here, I’m reaching ahead

For a life with meaning, not a life I dread

Verse 2
