[Verse 1 – Soft, intimate, reflective]
I walked through storms I swore I’d never survive,
Drowning in the echoes of love that didn’t thrive.
Every word I whispered, every tear I tried to hide,
Built the cage I thought was love—but it was my own pride.
[Pre-Chorus – Warmer, rising]
And now I see the cracks where I once let him in,
I’m learning that the strongest love begins within.
Every scar, every fall, a spark that leads me in…
[Chorus – Full voice, uplifting, soulful]
’Cause I’m rising from the rain—
No more shadows of his games.
I’m claiming all the fire
That he tried to put to shame.
I won’t dim my light, I won’t apologize,
I’m a phoenix in the rain,
Breaking free from someone else’s lies.
[Verse 2 – Smooth, smoky, reflective]
I taste the air again, unchained and unafraid,
The girl I lost in him is finally unscathed.
I laugh at the nights I thought love meant sacrifice,
I’m learning joy, I’m learning how to rise.
[Pre-Chorus – Build, confident]
And every shadow fades when I step into the sun,
I’m more than the battles lost, more than what’s been done.
Every heartbeat sings the story of the one I’ve become…
[Chorus – Bigger, empowering]
’Cause I’m rising from the rain—
No more shadows of his games.
I’m claiming all the fire
That he tried to put to shame.
I won’t dim my light, I won’t apologize,
I’m a phoenix in the rain,
Breaking free from someone else’s lies.
[Bridge – Soft, smoky, intimate]
I don’t need a crown to know my worth,
I don’t need his love to define my earth.
Every drop that fell only made me see,
The woman I am is all I need to be.
[Final Chorus – Triumphant, slow-burn, soaring]
’Cause I’m rising from the rain—
Stronger than I’ve ever been.
I’m claiming all the fire,
I’m alive, I’m whole again.
I won’t dim my light, I won’t apologize,
I’m a phoenix in the rain,
Finally free from someone else’s lies.
[Outro – Gentle, satisfied, smoky]
I walked through storms, but I survived…
Now I rise, I rise alive.
