Lyrics

Verse 1:
Every darkness
feels like its upon you now
You can’t go back

Every hardness
breathes upon your shoulder
Can’t change the past

Pre-Chorus:
Must walk on
There isn’t any other way that leads
To something good coming out of this

Chorus:
You’re strong
You’re good
You’re important
And you’re needed in this world
You’re strong
You’re good
You have something to make the world a better place

Verse 2:
Every suffering
That you’ve had to face
Weighs heavy on your heart today

Every torment
The things they put you through
What they’ve done to you, weights on your mind

Run don’t walk this path
Get out
Get out of this fire

Chorus:
You’re strong
You’re good
You’re important
And you’re needed in this world
You’re strong
You’re good
You have something to make the world a better place

Bridge:
What you desire
Is so far away
Getting through the hardship
Is everything today

What you believe
Seems so remote
Where is the light?

Chorus:
You’re strong
You’re good
You’re important
And you’re needed in this world
You’re strong
You’re good
You have something to make this world a better place
