A song that hopefully makes you rethink purpose...

What Will I Be Giving Back?

Verse 1

I believed I had to fix it all

Stand Strong and hold the weight

To do something big with all I had

To make the world a better place

Even when I said it was for good

The focus was always on me

Now I’m wondering if I ever asked—

Who Am I really meant to be

Chorus

He gave me light, gave me breath

Not just for work, but soul and depth

Not to bury, not to waste

But to grow with love and grace

And when I’ve run my final track—

What will I be giving back?

Verse 2

I’ve been proud, boisterous and loud

I’ve been wrong, and let it slide

I’ve chased for things that failed to fill

And often put others on the side

I said the right things, played the part

While hiding pieces of my heart

Now I’m asking with clearer eyes—

Did I let my soul come alive?

Chorus

He gave me light, gave me breath

Not just for work, but soul and depth

Not to bury, not to waste

But to grow with love and grace

And when I’ve run my final track—

What will I be giving back?

Verse 3

I’ve wrestled with meaning, questioned the plan

Tried to make sense with the mind of man

Maybe it’s not answers we’re here to find

Maybe it’s soul we’re meant to refine

Now I feel it deep in my chest

This life ia a forge, not merely a test

And when it’s time to leave this place

I’m to offer a soul shaped by grace

Final Chorus

He gave me light, gave me breath

Not just for skills, but soul and depth

Not to build a name for show

But to let my soul ignite and grow

And when I stand at the edge at last—

Maybe that’s what I’ll be giving back

Outro

I’ll give back a soul lived full and true,

Rooted in light, and refined by truth.

Not just survived, but that learned to grow—

Ready to shine where eternity flows.
