[Verse 1]
I was Superman on the stairs, flying with a scream
Till the fall caught my wings, broke both of my dreams
Right hand first, then the left came next
Skateboard on my foot, yeah, blood in every step
Garlic and alcohol, mama’s healing touch
Pain in my bones, but I never gave up much
[Pre-Chorus]
Hit by a truck, walking like a ghost
Scratches and bruises, yeah I took the most
They called me crazy, I just kept going
'Cause pain never stopped where my fire was flowing
[Chorus]
I’ve been hurting, but now I’m strong
Every fall became a verse in my song
Could’ve stayed down, could’ve cried out loud
But I rose like thunder, broke through the clouds
From the floor to the fire, I walked alone
Yeah, hurting made me strong, and now I’m grown
[Verse 2]
Jumped off a bus before it stopped, tried to fit in
But I hit the ground hard, couldn’t fake a win
Zombie steps, bleeding knees, but I smiled
Said, “I’m okay,” though I hurt for miles
Big spike in my hand, tears like rain
Hospital lights, students learning my pain
[Bridge]
Five stitches deep, every poke a war
Needle through my hand, like a battle scar
Could’ve screamed, could’ve froze in place
But I walked it off with that warrior grace
This ain’t just pain—it’s proof I’m alive
Every bruise a story of how I survived
[Chorus]
I’ve been hurting, but now I’m strong
Every scar’s a reason I belong
Could’ve stayed down, could’ve cried out loud
But I rose like thunder, broke through the clouds
From the floor to the fire, I walked alone
Yeah, hurting made me strong, and now I’m grown
[Breakdown]
You decide if you freeze or move
Let the world see what pain can prove
Ain’t no shame in the fall, just rise
With the power in your hands and fire in your eyes
[Final Chorus]
I’ve been hurting, but now I’m strong
Every moment shaped where I belong
Could’ve stayed down, could’ve cried out loud
But I stood tall, even broken and proud
From the floor to the fire, I walked alone
Yeah, hurting made me strong—this pain built my throne
[Outro]
So if you're down, get back on your feet
Even with scars, you’re still complete
Pain don’t stop the ones who rise
I kept walking... now I own the skies.
