[Verse 1]
Tears hit the floor, but I wipe ‘em quick
Used to be my anchor, now you just a brick
Carried your weight, didn’t see me drown
Now I’m on the rise, queen reclaim the crown
[Chorus]
You broke me down, but I’m buildin' still
Climbed out the rubble with a queen's will
Heartache’s a weapon, forged it in gold
Now I’m a story only strength has told
[Verse 2]
Used to call you mine, now I call you a phase
Lost in the shadows, but I set ‘em ablaze
Couldn’t dim my shine, even when you schemed
I'm waking up to life, living my dreams
[Bridge]
Say goodbye, boy, to the girl you knew
New chapter’s written, and it’s all true
I'm no phoenix, but I rise from ash
Your time's expired, spent all your cash
[Verse 3]
Flexin' my scars, they tell a tale
Battlefield survivor, can’t make me frail
Cooked up the pain, served it gourmet
Strongest on the menu, you can't take away
[Chorus]
You broke me down, but I’m buildin' still
Climbed out the rubble with a queen's will
Heartache’s a weapon, forged it in gold
Now I’m a story only strength has told
