Hi Guys

I would like your comments on the lyrics and music - the story, the flow and how it makes you feel. This demo was created in and with Soundtrap and Bandlab DAW’S. I was thinking about R & B/Soul. Thanks for commenting.

Happy Writing

I Wanna Be Your Why
©Schantell Wharton

Verse 1
I see the weight you carry on your back,
Fighting battles, trying hard to stay on track.
You say love’s a game that leaves you torn,
But I ain't here to play—I’m here to be reborn.

Pre-Chorus
You been running, been doubting, been keeping it safe,
Scared to let love come and take its place.
But baby, love ain't meant to be a goodbye,
I wanna be the reason you give it one more try.

Chorus
I wanna be your why, the light in your sky,
The voice in your dark when the tears start to rise.
The touch on your skin when the world feels so cold,
The heart that you hold when the stories get told.
I ain't just a moment, I’m your reason to fly,
Baby, let me be your why. Baby, let me be your why.

Verse 2
I know your past left echoes in your soul,
Broken trust got you scared to lose control.
But I see the man that’s buried deep inside,
And I’ll stand beside you, not just for the ride.

Pre-Chorus
You been healing, been dealing, been locking the door,
But love ain’t a prison—it’s so much more.
I’ll show you a love that don’t fade or lie,
I wanna be the reason you reach for the sky.

Chorus
I wanna be your why, the breath when you sigh,
The calm in your storm when the thunder is high.
The hand that won’t shake when your world falls apart,
The love that you trust when you open your heart.
I ain’t just a moment, I’m your reason to try,
Baby, let me be your why. Baby, let me be your why.

Bridge
I won’t ask you to run if you ain’t got the strength,
I’ll walk every mile, I’ll go every length.
Just take my hand, you ain’t got to explain,
I’ll hold you through fire, through heartache and rain.
Chorus – Repeat & Build
I wanna be your why, the sun in your sky,
The dream in your soul that will never run dry.
The love that stands steady when the world walks away,
The reason you stay when there’s nothing to say.
Baby, let me be your why. Baby, let me be your why.
