I rise from ruins, forged in bitter flame, A shadow bending but refusing to break. The ashes whisper softly of my name, And I clutch the pieces that grief could not take. The scars I carry gleam like sharpened steel, I’ve walked the dark and let the night congeal, Each one a story etched into my skin. But light returns where loss had been. The echoes of despair no longer bind, They twist into a song I can command. I leave the shadows that I feared behind, And forge my path with steady hand. The grief that once devoured now fuels my stride, A river carving canyons deep and wide. I rise anew, reborn against the tide, A heart renewed I no longer hide. I’ve been broken, I’ve been burned, I’ve returned, my soul affirmed, But every wound has taught me more. Stronger than I was before. I rise through grief and fire and pain, Like sunlight breaking after rain. The pieces that once held me remain, But I emerge, unbroken, whole again. Screams blend with melody, a storm of sound, The night dissolves beneath my feet. I lift my voice, let the grief resound, And find the strength in every beat. No longer shadow, no longer lost, I carry the fire, I pay the cost. Alive, reborn from wreckage and pain, The storm has passed... I rise again I rise through grief and fire and pain, Like sunlight breaking after rain. The pieces that once held me remain, But I emerge, unbroken, whole again. I rise through grief and fire and pain, Like sunlight breaking after rain. The pieces that once held me remain, But I emerge, unbroken, whole again.
