“Rise in Shadows”
(Verse 1)
They cast me down in shadows, in chains they tried to bind,
But I walked through fire, left the past behind.
Scars on my skin, a tale in every line,
Building up a kingdom where the broken shine.
(Pre-Chorus)
I’m forged in darkness, steel in my veins,
Swallowed my fears, turned the losses to gain.
I’ll shatter the silence, let the echoes ignite,
With every wound, I reclaim the fight.
(Chorus)
I’ll do what it takes, rise up from the dust,
I’ve bled and I’ve broken, but I still stand just.
With fire in my veins, a storm in my soul,
I’ll rise in shadows, to make myself whole.
(Verse 2)
I’m a paradox, a spectacle, they’d call me cynical,
Don’t need the hypothetical, I’m breaking every syllable.
A fracture in their system, but a flame in their dark,
An apostrophe standing, a life etched in marks.
They can’t see the weight of the burdens borne,
Of innocence lost, of promises torn.
I’m a piece of the system, yet outside it all,
A spark and a symbol, refusing to fall.
(Pre-Chorus)
I’ve been the hypocrite, I’ve been the muse,
An apostrophe in the verses they refuse.
In the night’s quiet breath, I see my path clear,
Each scar a testament, I won’t live in fear.
(Chorus)
I’ll do what it takes, rise up from the dust,
I’ve bled and I’ve broken, but I still stand just.
With fire in my veins, a storm in my soul,
I’ll rise in shadows, to make myself whole.
(Bridge)
I am the keeper, the heart and the spine,
Unbroken and ruthless, crossing every line.
Empires will fall, kingdoms fade away,
But I rise eternal, and here I’ll stay.
(Chorus)
I’ll do what it takes, rise up from the dust,
I’ve bled and I’ve broken, but I still stand just.
With fire in my veins, a storm in my soul,
I’ll rise in shadows, to make myself whole.
(Outro)
When I’m gone, let my spirit remain,
A symbol of power, carved from the pain.
I am the heartbeat, the whisper, the flame,
A soul undying, remember my name.
