Verse 1]
I wore a smile they handed to me,
Played the part they wanted to see.
Every “no” became another scar,
Funny how they never saw my heart.
Built me up just to watch me fall,
Measured every step, counted every flaw.
Now I’m standing where they said I’d break,
Guess they underestimated what pain can make.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every bruise became a spark.
Every ending lit the dark.
You can try to pull me under…
I’ll come back louder.
[Chorus]
Watch me rise—
Like a phoenix through the fire.
Every flame takes me higher.
I don’t run.
I become.
Everything they said I’d never be.
Hear that bass?
That’s my heartbeat.
Breaking every chain they put on me.
Turn it up.
Let it shake the sky.
I’m alive.
[Verse 2]
No more shrinking just to fit the room.
No more apologizing for the truth.
If my light is blinding,
Close your eyes—
I’m done making myself small.
I learned my name
From the ashes,
Not from people
Who never knew me.
[Bridge]
I don’t need another crown.
I don’t need another throne.
If I built myself from nothing…
Then nowhere
Feels like home—
Because everywhere
Is mine.
[Final Chorus]
Watch me rise—
Higher than the fear I carried.
Higher than the words they buried.
Every scar became a constellation.
Every loss became my invitation.
Hear that bass?
That’s my heartbeat.
Echoing through every street.
I’m not surviving.
I’m becoming.
Watch me rise.
