How Do You Know

How Do You Know When You’re… Verse 1 How do you know when you’re lost in the crowd, Smiling on the outside, but your thoughts getting loud? How do you know when you’re chasing a dream, Or running from a life that ain’t what it seems? Every road got a sign, but the signs don’t speak, Every mountain looks tall when you’re feeling weak. You keep asking yourself, “Am I where I belong?” Maybe finding your way starts with moving along. Chorus How do you know when you’re finally free? When you stop being who they want you to be? How do you know when the moment is right? When you stop fearing wrong and start choosing your life. How do you know, how do you know? Sometimes you gotta walk that road alone. How do you know, how do you know? You feel it in your soul when you’re finally home. Verse 2 How do you know when the love is real? When somebody sees every scar that you feel? When they stay through the storms, not just sunny days, When they know all your flaws but they still choose to stay. No diamonds, no money, no words in the air, Can compare to somebody who genuinely cares. You can’t force a heart, you can’t fake that glow, Sometimes you just know what your heart already knows. Verse 3 How do you know when it’s time to let go? When holding on hurts more than watching it go? You gave everything, but the story still ends, Some people are chapters, not lifelong friends. Don’t carry the weight of what you can’t change, Don’t blame your own heart for somebody else’s pain. A closed door can hurt, but it opens a view— Sometimes losing what was makes room for what’s new. Chorus How do you know when you’re finally free? When you stop being who they want you to be? How do you know when the moment is right? When you stop fearing wrong and start choosing your life. How do you know, how do you know? Sometimes you gotta walk that road alone. How do you know, how do you know? You feel it in your soul when you’re finally home. Verse 4 So how do you know when you’re becoming your best? When you quit comparing your journey to the rest. When you fall seven times but you rise up eight, When you stop calling failure the name of your fate. Maybe there’s no answer, maybe that’s okay, Maybe life is a question we answer each day. So if you’re still wondering which way you should go, Take one more step forward—you’ll know when you know .Chorus How do you know when you’re finally free? When you stop being who they want you to be? How do you know when the moment is right? When you stop fearing wrong and start choosing your life. How do you know, how do you know? Sometimes you gotta walk that road alone. How do you know, how do you know? You feel it in your soul when you’re finally home.
