[Intro]
Running around, feeling low
Trying to find a way to grow
Heart's heavy, mind's confused
Every step, I'm feeling used
[Verse 1]
Daylight fades, I'm on my own
Car's in the shop, feelin' like a stone
Probation's a weight, I'm under the gun
Always on edge, it’s nowhere I run
Worried about my officer’s eyes
Nine to five feels like a disguise
Shelter’s a dream, but I'm reaching high
Trying to climb, but I’m asking why
[Pre-Chorus]
But I take a breath, I take a step
One day at a time, I won’t forget
The battles I face, the lessons I learn
Through fire and rain, watch how I burn
[Chorus]
Running in circles, lost in the dark
Every heartbeat a fragile spark
Trying to rise, but I’m weighed down
Someday I’ll find solid ground
One step, one day, I’ll make my way
Through shadows of doubt, I’ll seize the day
[Verse 2]
Flashes of moments that haunt my mind
Walking through storms, nothing feels kind
Kicked down again, but I won't lose sight
Each bruise a story, I’ll turn it to light
Day in, day out, I’m working hard
Life throws punches, trying to leave a scar
But I’m like the phoenix, rising anew
With every fall, I’m breaking through
[Pre-Chorus]
Feel the fire, the deepening pain
But I won’t break under the strain
Keep my head up, I’m learning to fight
Rule my heart and embrace the night
[Chorus]
Running in circles, lost in the dark
Every heartbeat a fragile spark
Trying to rise, but I’m weighed down
Someday I’ll find solid ground
One step, one day, I’ll make my way
Through shadows of doubt, I’ll seize the day
[Bridge]
Life’s a journey, not a race
Every roadblock feels like a trace
Of lessons learned, and love from the past
This storm will fade, these shadows won’t last
[Outro]
So I’ll take my time, and I’ll run my race
Finding my strength in this hidden place
With faith in my heart and hope in my eyes
I’ll break these chains, oh, I’ll rise, I’ll rise.
