DON'T SEND ME BACK

Verse 1
I've walked through storms that nobody could see,
Carried my sickness like a shadow on me.
I've given my heart till there wasn't much left,
Kept on breathing when I felt bereft.
Everybody smiling, but who's really true?
So many masks, I don't know who is who.
I've cried to Heaven, “God, can You hear?”
I'm tired of fighting year after year.

Chorus
If I reach Heaven, God, don't send me back,
I've carried too much on this long, lonely track.
Let me rest somewhere the pain can't find,
Somewhere there's peace for a troubled mind.
But if You say, “Child, you've got more to do,”
Then give me the strength to make it through.
I don't want to leave—I just want the pain to end,
I want to find myself and breathe again.

Verse 2
I see people hungry, living in poverty,
While somebody profits from somebody's misery.
They tell us what to eat, what to watch, what to do,
But who is watching when the poor can't make it through?
Diseases spreading, people losing their lives,
And some are counting dollars while another survives.
I don't know all the answers, but I know what I feel:
A world full of wounds that we pretend aren't real.

Bridge
And if I ever stand before the Devil down below,
I'd tell him every battle that nobody came to know.
I'd say, “I wasn't weak—I was wounded and tired.
I kept looking for a reason when my hope had expired.”
And God might answer, “You were never alone.
There was still a road you had not yet known.”

Final Chorus
So don't send me back to a life without light,
But if I must stay, help me survive tonight.
Take this anger, take this sorrow,
Give me strength to face tomorrow.
I don't want death—I want freedom from pain,
I want to see sunshine after all of this rain.
If Heaven is peace, let me find peace right here,
Before I leave this earth, let me conquer my fear.

Outro
I'm still here…
Still breathing…
Still searching…
Maybe there's a reason
I haven't stopped dreaming.
