Break the Ceiling Down

[Verse 1]
I kept the fire underneath my tongue
Counting every mile I never ran
I wore the lock like it was armor
Now I’m breaking through with both hands

[Pre-Chorus]
No more waiting for permission
No more folding at the edge
Every fear that built a prison
Turns to fuel beneath my steps

[Chorus]
I’m not holding back now
I’m not turning down
I came too far to bury this
I’m taking every inch of ground
Raise your hands, let the whole room know
I was born for the overflow
I’m not holding back now
Watch me break the ceiling down

[Verse 2]
I had a notebook full of almost
And a calendar full of someday
Now the ink runs past the margins
Now the door is coming off its frame

[Pre-Chorus]
Let the doubt keep talking louder
It can’t steer me anymore
I can feel the pressure flowering
Like a storm behind the door

[Chorus]
I’m not holding back now
I’m not turning down
I came too far to bury this
I’m taking every inch of ground
Raise your hands, let the whole room know
I was born for the overflow
I’m not holding back now
Watch me break the ceiling down

[Bridge]
If I fall, I’ll hit the pavement running
If I bend, I’ll bend toward the sun
Every scar is proof I kept becoming
Every breath says I’m not done

[Breakdown]
No leash
No brakes
No borrowed shape
My name
My flame
I choose the way

[Final Chorus]
I’m not holding back now
I’m not turning down
I came too far to bury this
I’m taking every inch of ground
Raise your hands, let the whole room know
I was born for the overflow
I’m not holding back now
Watch me break the ceiling down

[Outro]
No more almost
No more someday
I’m wide awake
And I’m on my way
