LYRICS
They told me
I’d never get to tell my story
Too many bullet holes
It would take a miracle
These voices
Inside my head like poison
Trying to steal my hope
Silencing my soul
But my story is only now beginning
Don’t try to write my ending
Nobody gets to sing my song
This is the sound of surviving
This is my farewell to fear
This is my whole heart deciding
I’m still here, I’m still here
And I’m not done fighting
This is the sound of surviving
These pieces
The ones that left me bleeding
Intended for my pain
Became the gift you gave me
I gathered those pieces into a mountain
My freedom is in view
I’m stronger than I knew
And this hill is not the one I die on
I’m going to lift my eyes and
I’m going to keep on climbing
I’m still here
Say it to the ache, lying there awake
Say it to your tears
I'm still here
Say it to the pain, say it to the rain
Say it to your fear
This is the sound of surviving
This is my farewell to fear
This is my whole heart deciding
I’m still here, I’m still here
And I’m not done fighting
No, I'm not done fighting
And I am still rising
Rising, I'm still rising
And I'm not done fighting
This is the sound of surviving

I don't normally comment on KZbin, but this song is the story of my life. I am a 14-year-old girl from Australia and I used to think about killing myself. Last year, I felt like I had no friends and the whole world was against me. At the beginning of this year, on New Year's Eve, I realized that, no matter what, God would be my rock and shelter. By God's grace and the Holy Spirit, I became a new person- my faith was renewed and I had such a strong faith. I realized that even when I don't have any friends, Jesus is there, right by my side. "I'm not done fighting! This is the sound of surviving!" Thank you, Jesus! This is my farewell to fear!

[@breelynn8810]

hi,....i don't usually comment on KZbin either, but Abigail I can relate alot to your story,I'm 15 now and when I was 12 years old I struggled with depression and wanting to kill myself,and not having friends.....and it got really bad to the point that the only thing I thought about was how to end it (take my life) and I felt so alone,like no one liked me,or wanted to be my friend....it was hard,but I decided to make God my main focus and trust him,that everything would be ok.....so I just want to say,ya life is ruff and honestly it stinks at times but you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you!! God loves you and always will!

Dear young one, Hang in there! You have made the very best choice: HE will NEVER forsake you and will always be there for you.

The best is to come with the love He will pour out on you.

I lost my husband almost 7 years ago. I almost died of a broken heart syndrome. I have a small hole in my heart. I got audited by IRS, but they couldn't find a thing. I found out that I had breast cancer. After surgeries, Chemo and Radiation, it was defeated. I received 100 letters from lawyers on foreclosure for my home. I sold my home and paid off all my debts. I lost my dad, and two sisters to cancer and pneumonia. I just found out because of the steroids and chemo, I now have Diabetes type 2. But, for some reason, I am still here. I LOVE Jesus and I am surviving! I shall live and not die and declare the works of the Lord! All Glory to God! . . . all this in the last 7 years!

Your comment alone is a huge encouragement. I went through almost 10 years of verbal abuse. I left, and ended up in another emotionally abusive relationship for another three years. It wasn't until after that, that I started having trust issues, mental breakdowns, disassociations, PTSD flashbacks and deep, dark depression which caused me to dread falling asleep at night and waking up in the morning. I had to go through all five stages of grief before I even started healing. Thankfully, I have some wonderful friends who've given me a place to stay and have encouraged me in the very areas my abusers had gone to great lengths to discourage me from. I'm not the least bit angry at my abusers anymore. I've moved on with my life and have my own place to stay, my own car and many wonderful places to go. I feel happy, alive and free. Never, ever give up on life. After every storm comes a ray of sunshine. It may take a while, but it will come.

Don't dismiss yourself... surviving the fight in your own head is still fighting and winning! It's a lot harder that people know unless they've been there. ❤❤

[@talyamcguire6317]

Never belittle your experience. I suffer from anxiety as a side of my PTSD from abuse. It's hard. And I'll tell you what, no matter how much you go through, it will always feel like "It's not that bad. Theirs was worse", but it's our hardship and our pain and it's big to us. That's what matters. Surviving anxiety and depression is huge. Don't let any tell you otherwise.

[@leng3195]

I am a survivor of domestic abuse. When I was 11 years old I was choked with a curtain until my vision went dark and as everything faded from view I thought to myself, "This is it, I'm going to die" Only I didn't die that day because just before I passed out he let go of the curtain and I could breathe again. For years after that I lived as if I had died that day struggling with ptsd. I couldn't understand why God let me live and I was convinced he abandoned me constantly thinking "I should have died that day" It happened while I was on a bus. A public bus and I felt so alone because either no one heard me when I yelled at him to stop. Or nobody cared. While I was reading through Revelation I saw the number 7 many times throughout the pages of text. 7 churches. 7 angels. 7 seals. 7 trumpets. 7 stars. 7 days in a week. And I made the realization that even in the darkest moment God had not abandoned me because the number of the bus I was riding on? 7. Even while the rest of the world abandoned me God stayed by my side. To this day I still struggle but I trust in God knowing that he was with me then and he continues to walk with me now on my path to recovery. A few years ago I never could have imagined going public with my story but today I have been able to share my story with my friends and small group leaders because God has put it on my heart to tell others my story. And to anyone out there who has been a victim of domestic abuse? Let this be an encouragement to you. Your story is worth sharing. God has put it on my heart to share so that others can do the same. You don't have to struggle alone, take comfort in knowing God is with you. He always has been and He always will. Even if you aren't a follower of His, God is still looking out for you and I pray over anyone in this comment section who is going through trial to have faith in God that He will get you through it. Thank you God for never giving up on me even when I pushed you away, I am not done fighting. God thank you for getting me to where I am right now, a place I never even dreamed of being possible a few years ago. You've made me a survivor so use my life for your glory God. 🙏

I needed this song today. Fighting an illness for over twenty years. I'm so tired. Tired of the pain. Tired of the medication. Tired of the doctors. Tired of just surviving. Tired of the unknown. Tired of the fear. Tired of waiting on His promise. Tired of the enemy's lies. Saying, "Your unloved." "You deserve this." "He no longer sees you as his daughter." I take a deep breath. There will be no explanation other than God's complete miracle. Every step is closer to that promise. I'm still in the potter's hands.

But I'm not done fighting. Deep down, I still believe God has a good plan for this.

I’m so glad you’re still here! When I was just 12 I started with the same thoughts that you were speaking about. When I did try twice, I almost succeeded both times. The first time I was cut down the second time I didn’t realize the gun had a safety so I couldn’t get the shot off. After that I decided I wouldn’t let the torments of child sexual abuse and the ones who caused it to kill me. I would live in spite of their evils. I went back to school got my GED became an EMT/FIREFIGHTER then became a geriatric caregiver all my jobs consisted of helping others. Never ever give in to those thoughts because you will never know the beautiful things that are in store for you! When u feel alone talk to God in Jesus name he is always a prayer away. He will calm your heart, you matter and you’re loved!

Please pray for me today, some tough memories from my pregnancy with my daughter are coming back. Long story short I went through emotional and verbal abuse from my inlaws that included demanding a paternity test and intnese name calling. The part that was hard is no matter what I did I was wrong. Anyways I couldn't keep food down becuase of the intense stress and my duaghter was born at almost 38 weeks at 4 pounds 11 oz. She was a miracle child and she still is. I need prayer today becuase the memories came back and I haven't thought of them in forever. We had to cut them out of our lives becuase the abuse was really bad and I we couldn't put our kids aroubd them. I'm saying this becuase despite the space the memory came back today.

For when I am weak, then I am strong." I picture a child being lifted onto his/her father's shoulders.

I'd encourage you to seek out a naturopathic doctor who is experienced with this & can help you. I believe this can also help with getting the hormones, depression and anxiety under control. Our bodies are wonderfully made & capable of amazing things. I also think the new song, "I am not a victim" would encourage you. Seek it out. Praying for you.

This year 2022 I'm finally setting us free from them and cutting them entirely out of our lives. Their own guilty conscience is what fuels them to act as if I'm the same kind of parent.

[@Valentina4ever2]

This song means so much to me. I married into an abusive family....my husband is not abusive...anyways I had reached rock bottom where I didn't even know who I was anymore--I couldn't even breathe. They were kind in person till you got behind closed doors and then rage would be seen---they saved that for their select few. I remember trying to make peace and somehow always being seen as the problem. They would twist scripture to gain control. I LOVE Jesus and I had moments where HE was all I had. No one can understand the pain of covert narc abuse unless they go through it. When I was pregnant with my daughter the abuse was the worst and my daughter was born 4 pounds 11 oz and we almost miscarried her. It was the most painful experience. When you marry into a family people assume that you are causing issues and you just need to put up and shut up because you are exaggerating at least that is what I experienced. Today we are under no contact and our daughter is a healthy toddler --they still try to play mind games and they still try to manipulate us but we do not answer. The hardest thing is when people that don't even understand what we are going through try to shame us when they cannot possibly understand--they never walked in out shoes. Since no contact we've given birth to a healthy son who was born 7 pounds 9 oz is is 7 months old. I never wanted to be in a situation like this but it drew me even closer to Jesus and I got to learn more about how awesome my husband is through all of this. My husband is for no contact as he saw everything as it was and honestly I have so much to be thankful for like my husband and our 2 healthy kids--things could have turned out worse like we could have miscarried but by God's Grace we have our 2 healthy children today and for that I'm thankful. This is my story and I am a survivor. This is my sound of surviving!!! May my story help someone else

[@emmag.5230]

Wow, I’m left in tears! I have been a victim of all types of abuse and I am still young. People have hurt me since I was six. Your song really resonates with me. I was able to feel my deep sadness and hope all at the same time. I didn’t know that was possible. I’m still here!!! Thank you.

I discovered this song in 2019, was going through transition from high school to college, got depressed and nearly ended it all but this song saved me. She’s truly a messenger from God.

[@helenmorishmonikatudu3974]

So encouraging !!💞Fighting my mental health....!Almost conquered...!God is so good to me!

[@BelleFlower15]

These new songs by Nichole Nordeman have been the first Christian music I've been able to listen to since the end of 2015. Her voice takes me right back to my faith.

[@itsjooooo.]

I survived abuse, one car accident, and all the little battles inside me. I am proud of myself for surviving those days of my life. Now i have PTSD, but it’s fine ‘cause i believe in the process of healing ✨

[@mozartpereira1239]

Nichole Nordeman God works through you, in such beautiful ways. Your songs are filled with spirit - the lyrics are truly a Godsend. May the Creator of the universe bless you always.

[@sujiz8362]

I am not done fighting but I have overcome many obstacles. God is my strength.

[@Eclipticsleeps]

I remember hearing this playing when I went to the hospital and I found out it was being played by a cancer survivor's daughter and husband

[@debrahange8209]

[@shari6891]

Never give up..God is always with you! Praise and rejoice in another chance to survive. Never stop fighting!

[@yeeyee7149]

I had severe OCD, depression, and anxiety. My OCD used to control me, torture me 24/7, I was fighting against my mind every second every minute. And I'm not done fighting, this is the sound of surviving.

[@dawnlapka3782]

Nobody gets to sing my song before Jesus. Just me. Damn Straight!!!! Amen, Amen, Amen!!!!!

[@elledee3602]

This song is a treasure. I feel like the world should hear about this. Such a courageous song, vulnerable, bare but brave. Such a shame it's not given much attention and lots of nonsense songs are famous.

[@karisahjeanette7577]

🌾Only by the help, strength and the Grace of God🔥👣🔥💙💛💖🌾

[@victoriadries1915]

I have been going through anxiety/depression/anger disorders for almost 5 years now, I have survived an almost broken arm, I have survived very harsh bullying, I have survived many things and I'm still alive... I'm still alive... But I still feel too many holes in me because of my anxiety, depression and anger disorders

[@contentment_nonmaterialistic]

Blessed are those who are persecuted, because of God...we are going with Him no matter what the world will do to us. Thank You Lord Jesus

[@LucyGaid]

I"M A WARRIOR AND I AM NOT BACKING DOWN!!!

[@BlueBirdArtworks]

Whole my life I was blindly fighting against mental illness. I´m not done fighting! Now I know about and I´m still surviving. To all who are still fighting, every day you are living you are still surviving.

[@patriciacole8773]

Research melancholy personality type. It helps to understand it.

[@nicolahodges2]

Beautiful song 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@MamaofaWrestler]

I pray so much that my son who is a Heroin addict realizes that he is still here, and he can survive!😢

[@peggyoneill9933]

Praying for your son and your family .

[@jlfromm37]

Just what I needed to hear today. My daughter was stillborn four months ago. I still cannot look at other newborns, pregnant women, or any baby who looks about the age my daughter should be without getting a massive lump in my throat and tears welling up in my eyes. Every day I miss her terribly and some days are way worse than others. She was born on March 30, and each month, I've written a little something on Facebook and I can tell that my friends have started unfollowing me. Our families have also distanced themselves from us. My husband and I are a wreck still and no one else even mentions her name anymore. It kills me inside! Some days it feels as though we just barely survived the day. Losing your perfect baby for no reason at all is just the worst. We have found comfort and support in our church and I especially have been able to reflect while listening to music such as this song. I'm adding it to my KZbin playlist for my daily walks.

[@hopeshete9594]

I pray that you find the comfort you need.

[@pratimadwivedi601]

God will bless you with a more beautiful angel soon. Tc

[@juliehedges999]

That's despicable what ppl put down and give out on you who are hurting. They don't deserve your pain story OR your success story. Don't let them off the hook for abandoning you. I can't imagine worse pains to carry. May Jesus wrap his arms around you. Let you know why you're carrying this. And give you hope. Maybe seconds at a time. Maybe a day at a time. Say your baby's name loud. And forever. She/He is a person of your heart and deserves Love on Earth as in Heaven. May you be reunited in glory one day!

[@siphilisiwendlovu951]

may you be comforted through out this trying time. You are not alone. Together in prayerd

[@deedeeshaw5647]

I used to listen to this song over and over through my tears! With God by my side I am still here!

[@candyzhere1773]

I just lost my daughter of an overdose. I am just trying to remember to breathe. I’m still here.

[@emmilyn362]

And you are not alone, we are thinking of you

[@patriciacole8773]

The comfort God provides in the Holy Spirit is our lifeline. I learned the hard way that being thankful in all things brings us through. I know it sounds strange. But like especially small things. Thankful for a roof over our heads. Indoor plumbing. Soup. Heat. A friend. That heaven brings hope of reuniting. Songs like this. Even KZbin. Especially for Creation. Forgiveness. Sabbath rest. Truth. Genesis 2:2&3. God never changes.

[@candyzhere1773]

random name Thank you for letting me know that I am not alone. And that you and others are thinking of me. Your profile name is interesting to me. As a survival mechanism I held onto a fairytale way of thinking during the more traumatic experiences of this journey called life. A ray of hope believing in and looking for the happy ending. A way to get through the trauma. I guess the random mysterious name make me think that my daughter hears my heart’s longing. For we were very connected. I believe that if she could communicate, she would. Silly. I know but fairytales do come true, sometimes. Thank you for taking the time to encourage someone you don’t even know. ❤️

[@candyzhere1773]

Patricia Cole Thank you for your words of encouragement. I agree with you that God never changes. And I appreciate the reminder of the power of a grateful heart. To the One True Living God of Love, Light, Compassion, Creation and all that exists, Be the Glory Forever and Ever! So be it. Amen!🙂❤️❤️

[@candyzhere1773]

Patricia Cole I’m pretty open about my daughter and my life. It doesn’t serve me or anyone to be an island. The story of My daughter goes back to when she was a little girl. As does all of our stories. She was a little girl that was void of her daddy’s love. Her father an separated because of his use of alcohol and illegal drugs. She was under two years old. I remarried when she was 4. Though he wanted to love her and fill that void, I don’t believe he did. He had daddy issues himself. Between these two relationships I had a revelation of my need for God and I gave my life to Christ. That is where is met my ex husband. She was raised in a Christian home. We attended a nondenominational Church more than regularly. We were extremely active and on staff for several years. She knew the Bible and knew God. But when she was 15 she was a victim of a violent crime. Which contributed to the destruction of my marriage and family relationships. We didn’t have the skills to handle the trauma. And we were too busy to learn them. ☹️

[@itsdsanti3784]

This gives me chills just listening to this ❤ sending so much love to anyone going through anything

[@daniella._.6282]

Thank God for everything You've done to me, I feel broken, but not lost or alone, cause You're here by my side and I feel You.

[@samanthawhite4697]

My ex shot me with a 12gauge shotgun. It was full of buck shot. I took four rounds of BUCKSHOT. I still have two bullets in me. I live in VICTORY everyday! I am free of him. I have learned how to live with my fears my history. I have overcome ptsd, survived four gunshots, survived years of depression, the loss of a child, multiple miscarriages. And I'm blessed happy alive in love and engaged to the most understanding loving person I've ever met!

[@lisat3658]

Thank you Jesus ❤❤❤

[@darmsfive]

I finally figured out it wasn't the abusers that hurt me it was me allowing it. Having no sense of self and feeling incredibly alone and lost leaves a OPEN door for abusers.Only God can fill you with worth and offer you the right open door to life.

[@patriciacole8773]

Great observation. Thanks for sharing it

[@kimberlymahovsky1827]

Definitely my new walk in song. I love life and I am grateful to god and my angelic guardians on earth and in heaven. Here I come world!!!

I didn't think I would be able to get through these trials in my life. The pain feels too great to handle. This song has been a blessing. Thank you.
