Rising From the Shadows

Silent shadows in the hallway, whispers fade away

Caught in a mirror's trap, reflections led astray

Lost in a maze of empty praise, your voice a fading echo

Standing in the wreckage, trying not to let go

The ruler of a kingdom built on lies, I’m just a ghost inside

Holding onto fragments of a love I can't redefine

But I see through the smoke, I hear the distant cry

Breaking free from the chains, I’m learning how to fly

Rising from the ashes, finding my own light

Raising hope within her eyes, breaking through the night

Addiction’s grip was brutal, but I’m reclaiming who I am

For her to grow in freedom, I’ll be her steadfast stand

Shattered promises like glass, scattered on the floor

Battles fought in silence, I can't take it anymore

Daughter’s innocent laughter, a spark of new dawn

Filling all the empty rooms, where love was once withdrawn

But I see through the smoke, I hear the distant cry

Breaking free from the chains, I’m learning how to fly

Rising from the ashes, finding my own light

Raising hope within her eyes, breaking through the night

Addiction’s grip was brutal, but I’m reclaiming who I am

For her to grow in freedom, I’ll be her steadfast stand

No more shadows, no more fear

Step into the sunlight, make the darkness clear

Her future’s ours to shape and hold

A story of resilience, brave and bold

Walking hand in hand, towards a brand new day

Love reborn, stronger now, come what may

She’s the reason I keep fighting, love’s unbreakable chain

Raising her with hope, breaking free from the pain
