We’ve all got our rough days (mmm, ohh)
But they don’t last forever, no, they fade
The weight feels heavy,
but you’re stronger than you know
Every step’s a little closer to the glow
Keep your head up, don’t let it fall
You’ve got this, you can have it all
The night might whisper,
"You’re too far gone"
But the morning says you’re where you belong
You’re closer than you think,
just reach out
The light is right there,
breaking through the clouds
Every shadow fades when you believe
You’re stronger than the fear you leave
(oh-oh-ohhh)
You’re closer than you think
Let go of the doubt,
it’s not your friend (not your friend)
The storm won’t stop you,
it’s just the wind
The mirror only shows what’s on the outside
But your heart’s got the fire,
burning bright inside
Take a deep breath, it’s a brand-new start
You’ve got the courage, it’s in your heart
The world’s not perfect,
but it’s full of light
And it’s waiting for you to step inside
You’re closer than you think,
just reach out
The light is right there,
breaking through the clouds
Every shadow fades when you believe
You’re stronger than the fear you leave
(oh-oh-ohhh)
You’re closer than you think
After the rain (ohh),
there’s always a sky (mmm)
Every tear you’ve cried (every tear),
made you stronger inside
You’re not alone, you’re never too late
Your story’s still waiting—turn the page
You’re closer than you think,
just reach out
The light is right there,
breaking through the clouds
Every shadow fades when you believe
You’re stronger than the fear you leave
(oh-oh-ohhh)
You’re closer than you think
Closer than you think (ohhh, mmm)
It’s closer, yeah, it’s closer
Oh-oh-ohhh,
you’re stronger than you know
Closer than you think
