I walked the edges of a memory you left in fire
Your shadow carved into the walls like a warning choir
Every lie you whispered tasted sweet until it bled
And I carried every shard of you inside my head

But the night broke open
Like a vow you shattered first
And from the fractures
I found something even worse
The truth that freedom
Always rises from the hurt

So watch me rise through the ruins
With every heartbeat turning steel
You tore me down, but I'm reborn
Stronger than you ever dared to feel
I'm the thunder you created
I'm the storm you couldn't kill
I rise
Through the ruins, through the fire, and I will

You left the door wide open to the dark you ran from
Thought I'd crumble in the silence after you were gone
But pain becomes a kingdom when you learn to take the throne
And I forged a crown from everything you broke

Now the night still trembles
At the echo of your name
But I'm the echo
That refuses to remain
I turned the ashes
Into fuel within my veins

So watch me rise through the ruins
With every heartbeat turning steel
You tore me down, but I'm reborn
Stronger than you ever dared to feel
I'm the thunder you created
I'm the storm you couldn't kill
I rise
Through the ruins, through the fire, and I will

All the ghosts you left behind
Tried to chain me to the ground
But I burned their shadows clean
Til nothing could hold me down
And now the sky bends to my roar
I'm everything you feared I'd be
Unbroken
Awakened
Finally free

So watch me rise through the ruins
Carving light from where I've bled
You wrote my ending in the darkness
But I rewrote it in red
I'm the thunder you created
I'm the storm you couldn't kill
I rise
Through the ruins, through the fire
And I still will
