This year's for me

Verse 1

I walked through fire, came back from the edge,

Broke free from the chains that held me instead.

Left the darkness, faced down the pain,

And promised myself I’d never go back again.

Verse 2

Held my mother’s hand in her final days,

Watched her fade as memories slipped away.

Whispered "I love you" as she found peace,

Letting go, but her love never ceased.

Chorus

This year’s for me, it’s time to break free,

From all of the heartache that’s been holding me.

I’ve walked through the fire, I’ve battled the rain,

Now I’m building my life and my strength again.

Verse 3

Started a business, made it my own,

From the ground up, built a place I can call home.

I know you love me, and I love you too,

Though my life gets busy, I’m trying to see this through.

Chorus

This year’s for me, it’s time to break free,

From all of the heartache that’s been holding me.

I’ve walked through the fire, I’ve battled the rain,

Now I’m reclaiming my life once again.

Outro

Happy birthday to me, a new chapter’s begun,

For every battle fought and every race run.

I’ll hold onto love, I’ll honor the past,

And finally, this year—it’s mine at last.
