(Verse 1)
U didn’t choose ur poison ’cause u wanted to fall,
U chose what matched the weight u carried thru it all.
Pain taught u how to hustle,how to survive,
Taught u to keep moving when u barely felt alive.
If u ran to blow or meth, it wasn't for the thrill,
Tryna outrun the noise that never stood still.
Busy felt safer, silence felt loud,
Speed felt like breathing when ur thoughts got too proud.
If u leaned on weed, u weren’t weak, u were drowning,
Mind heavy, world too loud, pressure always surrounding.
U needed softer edges, space to unwind,
Needed something that could quiet the riot in ur mind.
If alcohol was comfort, u weren’t tryna get lit,
U were tryna drop the weight u carried every minute of it.
Permission to feel,to speak,
Permission to stop being strong every day of the week.
(Pre‑Hook)
Now u’re learning how to breathe not running from the truth,
Standing tall like u never could in youth.
U ain’t broken, u’re who u’re meant to be,
& every step u take, proof u’re breaking free.
(Chorus)
Run it back again, u’re stronger than all that tried to break u,
Every step u take is proof that nothing’s gonna shake u.
Lift ur head, u’re built for every battle u’ve been facing,
Now ur heartbeat’s screaming louder than the demons u’ve been chasing.
Keep your head up, u’re the comeback they don’t see,
Every tear u dropped became the fuel that sets u free.
When the past knocks, tell it u ain’t movin’ back —
U’re the light inside the darkness & u’re built for ur attack.
(Verse 2)
Nobody told u: survival ain’t shame,
U did what u had to just to stay in the game.
But living’s something different, it can be lived without the pain,
It’s learning to live with what used to drive u insane.
Recovery ain’t about judging what u used,
It’s about finding new ways not to end up bruised.
It’s learning how to breathe, not running from the truth,
Rebuilding what u lost in ur youth.
Pain taught u a language — healing teaches another,
U sit still, learn to feel & rediscover.
Strength ain’t hiding, ain’t numb,
Strength is facing yr fears & refusing to succumb.
This is ur comeback, ur rebuild, ur climb,
Ur moment to rise from the wreckage of time.
U ain’t ur past, u ain’t ur mistakes,
U’re the 1 that survived everything it breaks.
(Bridge)
Hold tight, ur heart’s been fighting battles no one sees,
Scars became a map that leads u where u need.
U ain’t falling, u’re evolving, rewriting every page,
& the strength u’re growing daily is the reason that u’re saved.
(Final Chorus)
Run it back again — u’re stronger than all that tried to break u,
Every step u take is proof that nothing’s gonna shake u.
Lift ur head
u’re built for every battle u’ve been facing,
Now ur heartbeat’s screaming louder than the demons u’ve been chasing.
When the past comes knocking, tell it u ain’t movin’ back —
U’re the light inside the darkness & u’re built for ur attack.
