(Verse 1)
Leather jackets and the scent of the road
Racing bikes where the wild things go
Just a young girl with the wind in her hair
Sun on the water, not a single care
Then the lights went down and the bass got loud
Finding my soul in a warehouse crowd
Illegal rhythms and underground beats
Living for the pulse of the city streets.
(Chorus)
From a girl to a woman, I’ve walked through the fire
Chasing the dreams and the heart’s desire
I’ve been to the edge, seen the world turn black
In a dark, dark hole with no way back
But I clawed my way out, I’m standing tall
Through the rise, the rhythm, and the heavy fall
Yeah, that’s the story of my life.
(Verse 2)
Raised a daughter first, then the twins came along
Building a family, staying steady and strong
Five little grandchildren now in my wake
The beautiful life that we managed to make
But the shadows came knocking, they took their toll
Tried to quiet the music inside of my soul
I nearly lost it all in the depth of the night
Fighting the demons just to reach for the light.
(Bridge)
On the mend now, feeling the glow
Stronger than any wind that can blow
The warehouse is silent, the bikes have all passed
But the fire inside was built to last.
(Chorus)
From a girl to a woman, I’ve walked through the fire
Chasing the dreams and the heart’s desire
I’ve been to the edge, seen the world turn black
In a dark, dark hole with no way back
But I clawed my way out, I’m standing tall
Through the rise, the rhythm, and the heavy fall
Yeah, that’s the story of my life.
(Outro)
Chasing the dreams...
Fighting the demons...
Stronger than ever.
That’s the story of my life.
