wings (Intro)

I was drowning in the silence
Fell in love with all my fears
Built a cage of doubt around me
Held my breath for all these years

Tried to shine but I kept falling
Tried to run but lost my way
Now I'm done with all the stalling
I was meant to fly, not stay

They told me dreams were make-believe
But I was born to break and breathe

Now I got wings, I'm rising higher
Past the smoke, beyond the fire
Every scar became my song
Every fall just made me strong
No more chains, no more strings
I believe in my own wings

Used to wish that I was braver
Used to hide behind a smile
Now my heart’s my only savior
And I'm walking every mile

They said my light was way too dim
But I was never made to dim

Now I got wings, I'm rising higher
Past the smoke, beyond the fire
Every scar became my song
Every fall just made me strong
No more chains, no more strings
I believe in my own wings

Even in the storm, I soar
I'm not afraid like I was before
Took the pain, turned it to power
Now I'm blooming every hour

Now I got wings, I'm rising higher
Watch me blaze like wildfire
Every scar became my song
Every fall just made me strong
This is me, spreadin’ my wings
I believe, I believe in my own wings
