Both Can Be True

from Root (2026)

Somebody's praying for the life I complain about

Somebody's losing hope while I'm figuring mine out

One heart breaks and calls it the end

Another finds strength to begin again

Same rain falling from the sky

One curses it, one watches flowers rise

Funny how the world can change

Without moving at all

Maybe truth depends

On the eyes we're looking through

Both can be true

You can hurt and still heal too

You can lose and still find meaning

In the breaking coming through

Both can be true

Life can ache and still be beautiful

Every storm can hold a sunrise

Every ending something new

Maybe that's the hardest lesson

Nothing's only black or blue

Sometimes opposite emotions

Both can be true

The rich still search for peace at night

The poor still laugh beneath hard lives

The young rush toward tomorrow fast

The old just want one moment back

We spend so much time reaching out

For greener grass on distant ground

While missing all the little things

Still alive around us now

Maybe wisdom is learning

Not to choose one side

Both can be true

You can grieve and still feel love too

You can fear the road ahead

And still walk it like you do

Both can be true

Life's not simple, people aren't too

Every scar can carry sorrow

And still carry beauty through

Maybe healing starts the moment

We stop demanding one clear view

And let the contradictions

Both be true

Maybe strength isn't pretending

Everything is fine

Maybe peace is simply learning

How to hold the dark and light

The grief and gratitude

The joy and missing too

Maybe being human means

Both can be true

Both can be true

You can break and still renew

You can feel completely lost

And still become somebody new

Both can be true

Every night still leads the moon

Every ending leaves a doorway

For another life to bloom

Maybe that's the beauty in it

Nothing stays the way we knew

And maybe that's what makes us human

Both can be true

Maybe healing isn't choosing one feeling…

Maybe it's learning to hold them all….
