Lyrics
"Hang In Therel"
By Yves Stilmant © 2025
Verse 1a
I left with a dream and a secondhand map,
Waved goodbye, never looked back.
Tears in my eyes, hope in my chest--
Said, "I'll figure it out, I'll give it my best."
Verse 1b
The city was loud, the silence was worse,
I missed those nights in Mama's church.
Called her crying, rent past due--
I said, "Mama, I don't know what to do."
Pre-Chorus
She said, "Take a breath, my brave young girl,
You've got what it takes to face this world."
Chorus
Hang in there, girl, you're gonna shine,
You've got a fire they'll never find.
You're smart, you're strong, you've come so far,
You're beautiful just as you are.
The world gets tough, but don't you bend--
You've got this now, and you will win.
Hang in there, girl... you're gonna rise again.
Verse 2a
I've fallen hard, I've cried alone,
Spent nights out drunk just to feel known.
But every scar and every bruise
Taught me something I could use.
Verse 2b
Dad told me, "Baby, don't lose your grace--
You've got your mama's heart and your granddad's pace."
I wiped my tears, stood up tall,
Said, "I guess I had to stumble to learn it all."
Pre-Chorus
Now I see the mirror with gentler eyes--
I'm not broken, I'm just alive.
Chorus
Hang in there, girl, you're gonna shine,
You've got a fire they'll never find.
You're smart, you're strong, you've come so far,
You're beautiful just as you are.
The world gets tough, but don't you bend--
You've got this now, and you will win.
Hang in there, girl... you're gonna rise again.
Bridge
I'm learning still, and I've got more to do,
But I'm proud of me for pushing through.
Final Chorus (Double)
Hang in there, girl, you're gonna shine,
You've got a fire they'll never find.
You're smart, you're strong, you've come so far,
You're beautiful just as you are.
The world gets tough, but don't you bend--
You've got this now, and you will win.
Hang in there, girl... you're gonna rise again.
Yeah, hang in there, girl... you're gonna rise again.
