Full Hands

Verse 1
Life is strange, it starts so bare
No gold in your pocket, no crown to wear
You chase the wind, you climb the hill
But the higher you go, the more you feel still
Pre-Chorus
The world will tempt you with glitter and flame
But none of it lasts, none of it stays
Chorus
So make sure your soul gains more than your hands
Let love be the treasure, not castles or plans
When the curtain falls and the silence stands
Only grace will echo, not your demands
Verse 2
You gather trophies, you build your name
But the mirror won’t lie, it sees through the fame
The heart grows richer when it learns to give
Not in what you own, but in how you live
Bridge
You came with nothing, you’ll leave the same
But the soul can shine like a holy flame
So plant your kindness, let mercy grow
That’s the only wealth you’ll ever truly know
Final Chorus
Make sure your soul gains more than your hands
Let truth be your shelter, not shifting sands
When the stars go dim and the hour expands
Only love will carry what life demands
