[Verse 1] I was born with the sun in my hair, Laughed like the breeze without a care, But time took its toll, and the winds grew cold, Left me with stories that hurt to be told. Lost my love in a blaze of fight, Mama and papa faded into night, I wandered the road with a smile worn thin, Wonderin’ where my real life had been. [Chorus] But there’s gold in the ashes, light in the pain, The storms that I weathered carved out my name. And though I’ve gone quiet, I still stand tall, For the ones that I’ve found—I will give it all. [Verse 2] Used to dance in the fields with the daisies and flame, Now I count every step, every face, every name. I ain’t lost my fire, just learned how it burns, And the road only teaches through twists and turns. They think I’m colder, but I know I care, Every heartbeat I guard like a whispered prayer. I ain’t the girl who chased every song, But I’ll fight for my own, all the way ‘til dawn. [Chorus] ‘Cause there’s gold in the ashes, hope in the scars, I’ve walked through the dark beneath quiet stars. And the ones by my side, they’re my shelter, my call, For the ones that I love—I will give it all. [Bridge] I found a family I never knew, In firelight laughter and midnight truth. They see the cracks, and they still believe, So I wear my heart where the world can see. [Final Chorus] Oh, there’s gold in the ashes, truth in the fall, Even shattered hearts can still hear the call. So I carry the light, through the worst and the small— For the ones that I love… I will give it all.
