(Verse 1) I learned to shrink just to fit in the space, Quiet footsteps, avoid every trace, Smile on the surface, storm underneath, Living with a weight I could barely breathe. Every word had a shadow attached, Every moment felt like I was trapped, But something inside me refused to die, Even when I forgot how to cry. (Pre-Chorus) And I thought I was broken beyond repair, Like my voice disappeared in the air, But silence can’t last when the soul starts to rise, Even the darkest night eventually dies. (Chorus) I’m taking it back, I’m finding my name, No longer living inside the shame, Every step forward is breaking the chain, I won’t belong to that fear again. I survived what tried to define my pain, Now I stand in the light unashamed, What once held me down can’t hold me still, I’m more than what I was forced to feel. (Verse 2) It took time just to look in my eyes, See the truth hidden under disguise, Piece by piece I rebuilt what was mine, Learning healing takes space and time. I found my strength in the voice I reclaimed, In every boundary I finally named, And every “no” that I learned to say Was a step toward a better day. (Bridge) And if you’re walking where I used to be, Feeling lost in what they did to me, Know the damage is not where you end, It’s just where the rebuilding begins. (Breakdown) Stand up! Even if you shake! Stand up! For your own sake! Breathe in! Let the past release! You deserve more than survival — you deserve peace. (Final Chorus) I’m taking it back, I’m finally free, No longer defined by what happened to me, Every scar is proof I survived the storm, And I’m still here, and I’ve been reborn. I won’t be silent, I won’t be afraid, I won’t live in the shadow it made, Because I am not what I went through — I am the life I built after I grew.
