Rise Against the Shadows

Lost my friends along the way, they've turned to dust and dreams,

Parents' love, a distant echo, unraveling at the seams.

Every scar tells a story, every tear a silent scream,

Facing demons every night, searching for a glimmer beam.

But I won’t fade away, I’ll rise up from the ground,

With every battle fought, I won't let me drown.

The weight upon my shoulders feels heavy as a stone,

Yet I’ll echo in the darkness, I won't fight this fight alone.

So give me strength to carry on, through the fire and the storm,

I’ll stand against the shadows, let my heart keep me warm.

With every step I take, I’ll conquer the pain,

In this struggle for survival, I will break every chain.

There's a whisper in the silence, a ghost that haunts my mind,

A figure lurking in the shadows, with evil intertwined.

But I gather all the courage, stitch my wounds with hope,

Facing fears that haunt my nights, I’m learning how to cope.

But I won’t fade away, I’ll rise up from the ground,

With every battle fought, I won't let me drown.

The weight upon my shoulders feels heavy as a stone,

Yet I’ll echo in the darkness, I won't fight this fight alone.

So give me strength to carry on, through the fire and the storm,

I’ll stand against the shadows, let my heart keep me warm.

With every step I take, I’ll conquer the pain,

In this struggle for survival, I will break every chain.

And when the shadows chase me, I’ll stand my ground and roar,

I’ll play the song of courage, unlocking every door.

Each heartbeat gives me power, each breath a brand new start,

The flames might try to burn me, but they’ll never touch my heart.

So give me strength to carry on, through the fire and the storm,

I’ll stand against the shadows, let my heart keep me warm.

With every step I take, I’ll conquer the pain,

In this struggle for survival, I will break every chain.

With hope, I’ll face tomorrow, and I won’t stand down today,

In the battle for my life, I will find my way.

I will rise, I will fight, I will scream into the night,

With strength as my companion, I’ll emerge into the light.
