[Verse 1] I saw who I am and knew I’d grow to something In all that I face, I’ll rise and overcome Tempered by pressure, awakened by love Broke free of the chains I was tired of [Pre-Chorus] Pushed down by doubt, the shadows pulled closer Tried to dim my light, even as I grew bolder I thought perfection was what was required I burned through my fears, igniting my fire I found my own voice, embraced my own light Shine bright as a star that burns thru the night [Chorus] Dust I become Dust I become I’ll live forever I’ll do what I must From ashes to ashes And dust to dust Dust I become Dust I become With power in all that I move through Finding freedom is my true comfort [Verse 2] I stayed distant in heart, still I bloomed inside Holding every dream that I once pushed aside Opened up my hands, letting hope rise I learned to live for my own self [Pre-Chorus] I named what I am, thought I could control me Didn’t hear their love, while I stood there lonely Friends by my side, they uplift my new way Now all of that weight, I’m casting away Now I have a voice, I claim my own light I’ll build my dreams, I’m done with those fights [Chorus] Dust I become Dust I become I’ll live forever I’ll do what I must From ashes to ashes And dust to dust Dust I become Dust I become With power in all that I move through Finding freedom is my true comfort [Bridge] I brought the truth to light and spoke what I knew Stopped wearing my blame like it proved what was true I honor my gifts, let them burn like a fire With work and devotion, I’ll grow even brighter [Final Chorus] Dust I become Dust I become I’ll live forever I’ll do what I must From ashes to ashes And dust to dust Dust I become Dust I become With power in all that I move through Finding freedom is my true comfort Dust I become Dust I become My look says it all, as I walk my way I trust what I feel, I rise in my name Dust I become Dust I become
