[Verse]
From the ashes, I rose, phoenix with a plan,
Shaky hands, but I’m steady where I stand.
Mirror used to haunt me, now it’s a friend,
Battles I fought? They came to an end.
Scars on my soul, trophies of my war,
Once locked out, now I’m breaking the door.
Family held me down, lifeboat in the storm,
Kept me warm, even when I wasn’t the norm.
[Chorus]
Grateful for the climb, for the ones who stayed,
For the love they gave, when my skies were gray.
Grateful for the climb, for the battles I won,
The darkness I faced, now I stand in the sun.
[Verse 2]
Addiction had me chained, dungeon of despair,
Thought I’d die there, gasping for air.
But love pulled me up, like roots through the ground,
Held me close, till my peace was found.
Family my fortress, love my cure,
Through the hardest nights, they made me sure.
No genre defines this, it’s life in a verse,
Grateful for the climb, the blessing and the curse.
[Chorus]
Grateful for the climb, for the ones who stayed,
For the love they gave, when my skies were gray.
Grateful for the climb, for the battles I won,
The darkness I faced, now I stand in the sun.
