Brandy

I’ve walked through the heavy, the heartache, the loss

Holding my tears, no matter the cost

Fell apart on the inside, behind closed doors

Trying to find what the hurting was for

I saw the true colors of people I knew

When the shadows fell, they faded from view

But I'm still standing strong, after all of the grief

I became my own shelter, my own relief

When there's nobody else that I can lean on

I look in the mirror and I keep pushing on

Yeah, the silence was loud, but it helped me to see

The only one Brandy can count on is me

It’s a lonely awakening when the room goes dark

Trying to heal up a shattered heart

I had to go through the struggle alone

Navigating a path that I’d never known

I saw what I meant when the chips were all down

Looked for a hand, there was no one around

But the pieces of me that were falling apart

Just built a new armor right over my heart

But I'm still standing strong, after all of the grief

I became my own shelter, my own relief

When there's nobody else that I can lean on

I look in the mirror and I keep pushing on

Yeah, the silence was loud, but it helped me to see

The only one Brandy can count on is me

So here's to the woman who weathered the rain

Who carried the weight of the loss and the pain

I don't need a savior to rescue my soul

I gathered the fragments and made myself whole

'Cause I'm still standing strong, after all of the grief

I became my own shelter, my own relief

When there's nobody else that I can lean on

I look in the mirror and I keep pushing on

Through the heartbreak and loss, I finally see

The only one Brandy can count on is me
