Rising on My Own

Holding on, but feeling low,

Wondering why we let it go.

In a world that's cold and gray,

Gonna find my own way.

People talk but never hear,

Words fall silent, disappear.

Promises break, like shattered glass,

All the moments that couldn't last.

Caught in cycles, spinning 'round,

Building walls, not making sound.

I’ll break free from this routine,

Rise above, chase the unseen.

I’m on my own, but I'm not alone,

With every step, I'm finding home.

Tears won't chain, and doubts won't win,

Pushing past the hurt within.

Inconsiderate, they’ll never change,

It’s a game I'll rearrange.

Sympathy, it weighs me down,

No more lost, I’ll wear my crown.

Caught in cycles, spinning 'round,

Building walls, not making sound.

I’ll rise above, and take my stand,

Creating dreams with my own hands.

I’m on my own, but I'm not alone,

With every step, I'm finding home.

Tears won't chain, and doubts won't win,

Pushing past the hurt within.

So hear me now, I’m breaking chains,

Trusting skies after the rain.

With every heartbeat, I'll ignite,

A flame that grows, burning bright.

I’m standing tall, I will not fall,

In this fight, I’ll give it my all.

People may be blind, but I can see,

I’m all I need, I’m finally free.
