[Verse]
The old scars trace my skin
Maps of battles fought within
Not marks of shame but growth's hymn
Through the ash I begin again
[Verse 2]
Whispers of pain in the night
Fuel for the spark of my fight
Shadows dance but can't take flight
I am the dawn chasing light
[Chorus]
The past ain't chains that bind my soul
It's the fire that forged me whole
Echoes of the flame they sing
From the dark I pull my wings
[Verse 3]
The cracks don't break they define
Paths to the summit I climb
Each stumble's a verse in time
Turning dirt into gold's fine line
[Bridge]
The ghosts they linger but they teach
A language only growth can preach
Not a prison but a beach
Waves of change within my reach
[Chorus]
The past ain't chains that bind my soul
It's the fire that forged me whole
Echoes of the flame they sing
From the dark I pull my wings
