Intro Static in my bloodstream Slow burn, quiet violence Verse 1 I wake up with yesterday on my skin Every word I buried still digs within I’ve been dragging ghosts through a restless mind Trying to outrun what I left behind Verse 2 Every mirror feels like borrowed truth Every promise breaks a little too soon I learned how to smile while I suffocate Learned how to fall without tempting fate Pre-Chorus I’ve been circling the truth Like it might pull me under But I’m done being afraid Of the weight I carry Chorus I won’t break, I won’t bend I won’t drown in my own head When the dark says “this is the end” I rise again, I rise again Post-Chorus Rise… again Verse 3 I’ve worn the armor, I’ve played the role Built these walls just to feel in control But every crack lets the daylight bleed Into the parts of me no one sees Pre-Chorus If I fall, I fall forward If I burn, let it show Chorus I won’t break, I won’t bend I rise again Bridge Strip me down to bone and breath Let me feel the fear instead Ashes mean I’m letting go Final Chorus I won’t fade, I won’t fold I was forged from broken bones When the night takes full control I rise again Outro Still standing in the fire.
