Tomorrow Will Know My Name

"Tomorrow Will Know My Name"

By Mercy Chali

Verse 1

I was just a little girl, searching for the light,

Mama left too early, and the days turned into nights.

My siblings stood beside me, with tears we couldn't hide,

But Mercy Chali kept believing there was hope on the other side.

Kind hands took me in and helped me learn to grow,

I thought I'd found forever, a place to call my own.

When they turned their backs on me, I refused to lose my way,

Because Mercy Chali believes in a brighter day.

Pre-Chorus

Every scar became a lesson,

Every tear became a prayer.

When the world forgot Mercy Chali,

God was always there.

Chorus

My name is Mercy Chali,

And I won't give up the fight.

Though I've walked through pain and heartache,

I'll keep reaching for the light.

I'm a small girl with big dreams,

Faith is all I need.

One day the world will know Mercy Chali,

Because I was born to succeed.

Verse 2

Now I'm walking into college with hope inside my soul,

Every step I take reminds me I am closer to my goal.

They may have left me all alone,

But they could never stop my flame.

The future is waiting for Mercy Chali,

And nothing stays the same.

Bridge

Mama, can you hear me?

I'm trying to make you proud.

Your little girl is stronger now,

I'll stand above the crowd.

I'll carry all your love with me,

In everything I do.

The dreams you left inside my heart,

I'll make them all come true.

Final Chorus

My name is Mercy Chali,

And this is not the end.

Every tear became my strength,

Every broken heart can mend.

I'm a small girl with big dreams,

And I'll keep reaching high.

One day the world will sing Mercy Chali,

A girl who chose to fly.

Outro

Remember the name... Mercy Chali.

A girl with scars, a heart full of dreams,

And a future brighter than yesterday.
