[Verse 1] Grew up where sirens sing. Concrete dreams and broken swings. No silence, no peace. Just sleepless nights. Learning to heal under street lights. I stood out like chalk on stone. Didn’t blend in. Just stood alone. They laughed at my voice. Called me strange. But I built a world they couldn’t change. [Pre-Chorus - Spoken] Every insult carved a line. Every bruise became a sign. They said I’d fall, they said I’d fade. But I learned how diamonds are made. [Chorus] The dark never broke me. It made me louder. It tried to drown me. I built a tower. They said I’d fail. But I lit the wire. Now every scar’s a live amplifier. [Verse 2] Lost some dreams along the way. But I still rise at the break of day. Body was shaken. But my soul stayed true. Turning old pain into something new. She held my hand through every scar. My northern star. They said I’d lose. But she saw gold. And that belief turned pain to soul. [Bridge] I don’t hate the ones who made me bleed. They watered the roots of what I’d be. Now I rise from the rain. Turned every echo into refrain. [Final Chorus] The chaos never broke me. I burned right through it. Built my strength in the fire. Learned how to use it. Every scar lit fire. Every tear defined. I turned the dark into a flame that’s mine. [Outro - Spoken / Soft Whisper] You can call it pain… I call it the start of everything I became.
