[Verse 1]
I was broke down, counted out, left in the cold
Dreams in my chest, but nobody told
Me I could rise, so I fought with the pain
Carved out a name in the middle of rain
No hand to hold, no one believed
They threw their stones while I quietly bled
But I kept walking, storm in my soul
Fire in my heart, yeah, losing control
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
They said I’d never make it, just a name to forget
But I’m still standing taller, with no regrets
⸻
[Chorus]
Look at me now — what you gotta say?
Built from the bottom, made my own way
Used to be the ghost, now I’m the sound
Turnin’ all that doubt into battlegrounds
What now?
Yeah — what now?
⸻
[Verse 2]
I took every no, every laugh, every lie
Stacked ’em like bricks, made a throne in the sky
Silence was heavy, the nights were long
But I found my strength where the weak don’t belong
Now I’m the storm that they tried to contain
Echoes of doubt, get washed in my rain
Lessons in losses, the hurt made me wise
Now I see the world through a warrior’s eyes
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
They said I’d never make it, just a name to forget
But I’m still standing taller, with no regrets
⸻
[Chorus]
Look at me now — what you gotta say?
Built from the bottom, made my own way
Used to be the ghost, now I’m the sound
Turnin’ all that doubt into battlegrounds
What now?
Yeah — what now?
⸻
[Bridge]
This is for the days when nobody cared
For the nights I prayed, for the cross I bared
I’m the proof you rise from the dirt, from the pain
Let ’em talk — I’ll just dance in the rain
⸻
[Final Chorus]
Look at me now — what you gotta say?
Built from the bottom, made my own way
Used to be the ghost, now I’m the sound
Turnin’ all that doubt into battlegrounds
What now?
Yeah — what now?
[Outro]
What now?
Tell me, what now?
