Not My Enemy

Not My Enemy [Verse 1] I feel it rising in my chest tonight Like a quiet voice that won’t stay still Every thought is racing through my mind But I know it’s trying to shield me still It’s not here to tear my world apart It’s just guarding every fragile part [Pre-Chorus] Maybe I don’t have to run away Maybe I can learn from what it says [Chorus] Anxiety, you’re not my enemy You’re a sign that I care deeply Every fear is just a light Trying to guide me through the night I will breathe, I will stand Even when I don’t understand I’m not weak, I’m aware Finding strength in every scare [Verse 2] Every step feels heavy on this road But I’m moving, even if it’s slow There’s a message in the pain I feel Something in me is learning to heal I don’t have to silence every doubt I can listen, I can figure it out [Pre-Chorus] Every time I choose to stay and fight I grow stronger on the other side [Chorus] Anxiety, you’re not my enemy You’re a sign that I care deeply Every fear is just a light Trying to guide me through the night I will breathe, I will stand Even when I don’t understand I’m not weak, I’m aware Finding strength in every scare [Bridge] I don’t need to be fearless I just need to be brave Take a step in the darkness Even when I’m afraid Every moment I face it I become who I need A little stronger than yesterday’s me [Final Chorus] Anxiety, you’re part of me But you won’t take control of me Every fear, I’ll walk it through I am stronger than I knew I will rise, I will grow Through the highs and through the lows I’m not weak, I’m aware And I’m stronger than despair [Outro] So I’ll keep on moving, step by step With every breath, no regret I’m learning who I’m meant to be And that strength lives inside of me
