[Verse 1]
I was quiet in the chaos
Learned to breathe without a sound
Every crack they tried to open
I just held it all inside
I was bending, never breaking
But I almost disappeared
Built a home inside the silence
Out of every single fear
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
Now the weight don’t feel the same
I don’t carry all that pain
⸻
[Chorus]
I’m not just a survivor
I’m the fire they couldn’t kill
Every scar turned into armor
Every wound became my will
I was lost in the shadows
Now I’m done hiding inside
I didn’t just survive it
I came back alive
⸻
[Verse 2]
They don’t see the reconstruction
All the nights I had to fight
Every piece I put together
In the dark without a light
Now I’m standing in the open
Nothing left for me to prove
I don’t run from where I’ve been
I just choose the way I move
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t shake, I don’t fold
I turned breaking into gold
⸻
[Chorus]
I’m not just a survivor
I’m the fire they couldn’t kill
Every scar turned into armor
Every wound became my will
I was buried in the silence
Now I finally feel the rise
I didn’t just survive it
I redefined my life
⸻
[Bridge] (strip it down, almost whisper → explode)
You can take the past
You can keep the pain
It don’t own me now
I don’t wear those chains
(beat builds…)
Watch me take it back
Watch me take my name
⸻
[Final Chorus] (full power)
I’m not just a survivor
I’m the storm that I became
Every scar turned into power
Now they’re gonna know my name
I was lost in the shadows
Now I’m burning through the night
I didn’t just survive it
I learned how to fight
