[Intro]
Came the day, the end of the line,
Chains fell away, pain redefined,
Thought I was weak, but I found my might,
Leaving the shadows, stepping into light.
[Verse 1]
February 27th, a date to remember,
A fire ignited, burned through the ember,
Words like daggers, slicing through trust,
Told I was a burden, felt like dust.
Every whisper a wound, each silence a scream,
Living a nightmare, chasing a dream,
You called me a slave, an ATM for your needs,
But now I’m breaking free, planting my seeds.
[Pre-Chorus]
Like a hurricane spinning, I’m twirling around,
Heart slowly healing from the pain I found,
It’s hard to believe that I’m still alive,
With scars as reminders, I will survive.
[Chorus]
So here’s to the rise, from ashes I’ll soar,
No longer a prisoner, I’m opening doors,
With every breath, I reclaim my own voice,
I’ve found my power, I’ve made my choice.
[Verse 2]
Thought I was guilty, but you played the game,
Gaslit my heart, but I’m done with the shame,
Breathe in the freedom, exhale the despair,
I’ve shed all your lies, I’m calling it fair.
Dance in the rain, let the storm come through,
Each drop a reminder of the strength that I grew,
No more “I’m sorry,” I’m done with the blame,
You’re just a memory, I’m igniting the flame.
[Bridge]
No more shackles to hold me down tight,
I’m stepping into a future that’s burning bright,
The scars may linger, but they tell my tale,
Of battles I fought, of storms I’ll prevail.
[Chorus]
So here’s to the rise, from ashes I’ll soar,
No longer a prisoner, I’m opening doors,
With every breath, I reclaim my own voice,
I’ve found my power, I’ve made my choice.
[Outro]
Marching ahead, with my head held high,
No longer a shadow, I’m learning to fly,
Embracing the chaos, I’m ready to thrive,
From chains to wings, I’m truly alive.
