[Intro]
Just a whisper in the night,
A shadow flickered in my mind,
A child’s heart beats too bright,
Telling truths we try to blind.
[Verse 1]
Worn down walls, echoes of pain,
I walked in blind, it felt insane,
A mask of love, a twisted guise,
But behind her eyes, the darkness lies.
Little boy, son, you saw it clear,
Tried to warn me, always near,
I chose to trust, ignored the signs,
Living through her crooked lines.
[Pre-Chorus]
The screams I silenced, buried deep,
With every bruise, I lost my sleep,
A voice unheard, a heart confined,
In chains of shame, I was maligned.
[Chorus]
But here I stand, I claim my name,
A fire burned inside my shame,
From ashes rise, I feel the light,
My voice is strong, I’ll win this fight.
I was broken, now I'm free,
Finding strength in honesty,
An angel came, she held my hand,
Taught me how to take a stand.
[Verse 2]
No longer shackled, no more fear,
I learned to listen, shed a tear,
Those haunting nights, they won't define,
With every word, I’ll draw the line.
The scars I bear, they tell my tale,
Of surviving storms, of learning to sail,
It's a truth I faced, no looking back,
I rise with purpose, no longer cracked.
[Pre-Chorus]
The past may hug me, but I won't bend,
The strength I found, a newfound friend,
I speak for children who felt alone,
With every breath, I’ve found my home.
[Chorus]
But here I stand, I claim my name,
A fire burned inside my shame,
From ashes rise, I feel the light,
My voice is strong, I’ll win this fight.
I was broken, now I'm free,
Finding strength in honesty,
An angel came, she held my hand,
Taught me how to take a stand.
[Bridge]
With every tear, with every sigh,
I've learned to laugh, and learned to cry,
This journey's tough, but I’ll embrace,
The power of love, a warm embrace.
[Outro]
Listen close, don’t let it fade,
The truth is loud, no need for shade,
If you hear the whispers, trust the sound,
In every heart, strength can be found.
