[Verse 1]
I wore my failure like a badge
Took every cut and called it fate
Same old room, same rusted clock
Same dead weight on every plate
I let the dirt get in my teeth
Let every word sink through my skin
But I can feel the blood come back
I’m not the man I was back then
[Pre-Chorus]
Pull me out
Pull me through
I’m done living
Like I’m through
Break these walls
Break these chains
I’m not made
For this cage
[Chorus]
I’m cutting out the rot
I’m burning through the shame
I’m done with all the static
I’m changing up my name
I rise, I rise
Out of the blackened mess
I rise, I rise
Into something better
[Verse 2]
I fed the doubt until it grew
A fist around my hollow chest
Every lie I told myself
Kept me buried with the rest
Now I’ve got scars that point the way
Now I’ve got fire in my hands
I’m tearing down the hell I built
And making ground I understand
[Pre-Chorus]
Pull me out
Pull me through
I’m done living
Like I’m through
Break these walls
Break these chains
I’m not made
For this cage
[Chorus]
I’m cutting out the rot
I’m burning through the shame
I’m done with all the static
I’m changing up my name
I rise, I rise
Out of the blackened mess
I rise, I rise
Into something better
[Bridge]
I was the pain
I was the wreck
I was the hand
Around my own neck
Now watch me move
Now watch me stand
I’ll build a future
With my bare hands
[Breakdown]
Say it loud
I’m not the same
Say it loud
I break the chain
Say it loud
I want the light
Say it loud
I choose my life
[Final Chorus]
I’m cutting out the rot
I’m burning through the shame
I’m done with all the static
I’m changing up my name
I rise, I rise
Out of the blackened mess
I rise, I rise
Into something better
I rise, I rise
I’m done with the blame
I rise, I rise
I’m changing up my fate
