Breaking the Shadows

[Verse 1]
Walked these empty hallways, shadows whisper lies
Lost in a storm, no one there to rise
Holding onto hope, when all I feel is pain
Rising from the ashes, fighting through the rain

[Pre-Chorus]
Every scar a story, every tear a fight
Learning to be stronger, dreaming of the light

[Chorus]
I am breaking free tonight, beyond the hurt and fear
Rising from the darkness, finding my own year
No more shadows pulling me down, I’ve got my wings to soar
Growing into strength, I am more than before

[Verse 2]
Mom’s words like thunder, tears that fell like rain
Built a wall of courage, to escape the pain
Every broken piece, a step towards the sun
Healing in my heart, a new journey's begun

[Pre-Chorus]
Every scar a story, every tear a fight
Learning to be stronger, dreaming of the light

[Chorus]
I am breaking free tonight, beyond the hurt and fear
Rising from the darkness, finding my own year
No more shadows pulling me down, I’ve got my wings to soar
Growing into strength, I am more than before

[Bridge]
From the ashes, I will rise
Find my place in open skies
No more chains to hold me back
Forward, on my own track

[Chorus]
I am breaking free tonight, beyond the hurt and fear
Rising from the darkness, finding my own year
No more shadows pulling me down, I’ve got my wings to soar
Growing into strength, I am more than before

[Outro]
Shadows fade away, I see the morning bright
Standing tall and brave, ready for the fight
Growing up, I heal and grow anew
This is my story, my truth,
My breakthrough
