Foundations of Trust

In the cradle of life's embrace
We learn to trust or hide our face
Some find warmth in loving arms
While others face unseen harms

But when that trust is hard to find
It leaves a void within the mind
A missing piece, a constant doubt
A life where fears are hard to rout
But when that trust is hard to find
It leaves a void within the mind
A missing piece, a constant doubt
A life where fears are hard to rout

Oh, the weight of mistrust
Heavy as mountains, cold as dust
(Where's the ground beneath my feet?)
Every step a challenge, every day incomplete
(oouu)
Without that foundation, it's hard to endure

Some build walls to keep safe inside
Their hearts locked up, their truth to hide
Brick by brick, they seal their fate
A fortress that keeps love at bay

Yet hope remains, a flickering light
For trust can grow, win back the fight
It takes time and courage too
To open up, to start anew

Oh, the strength of trust restored
Light as feathers, warm as sunlight poured
(the earth beneath my feet)
Each day a little easier, life feeling more complete
(Slowly)
With this foundation, there's so much to explore

It's not easy to let go of fear
To reach out when no one seems near
But every small step that we take
Is a choice for trust, a new path we make

So let's build bridges, not walls
Open our hearts, heed trust's calls
For in connection, we find our way
To a life where love and trust hold sway

Oh, the power of trust embraced
Solid as bedrock, sweet as grace
I stand tall on solid ground
Each day a new adventure, life's melody found
(Finally feeling secure)
With this foundation, our spirits can soar

Trust may waver, but never forget
It's the key to a life without regret
In every moment, we have
To build that trust, to find our voice
