Being on Your Own Team (Gentle Indie)

[Verse 1] The mirror whispers truths I can’t unsee Who’s that stranger staring back at me Cracks in the armor Lines in the sand I’ve been my own critic My harshest hand [Prechorus] But the battle’s over The war is done Why fight myself when I’ve already won [Chorus] Being on your own team It’s a quiet kind of dream No more running No more schemes Wrap yourself in your own esteem Being on your own team [Verse 2] The world is heavy And it’s hard to stand But I’ll catch myself Lend my own hand A kind word A soft place to fall It’s not weakness It’s strength after all [Chorus] Being on your own team It’s a quiet kind of dream No more running No more schemes Wrap yourself in your own esteem Being on your own team [Bridge] Every scar is a map of where I’ve been Every flaw’s a tale of battles within I’ll wear them proud Let the light stream Through the cracks of my self-esteem
