I fell but here I stand I lost but learned to understand I wept but found my way to heal Today, I'm born again Friends who walked away Left wounds along their path But through this journey's trials I found what truth can mean Family's not just blood It's who dries your tears Who quietly stands beside you Helping you to grow Love that burned like fire Slowly turned to ash Promises dissolved in air How hard it was to see But now my heart Though marked with scars Knows that real love Isn't born from duty Rise up and shine Life's too brief To live it halfway What doesn't break you Makes you wiser Stronger, more complete Rise up and shine Today's your moment The world awaits your vision Stumbles aren't failures They're hidden stepping stones Every darkest night Ends with breaking dawn Those who fall and rise again Have stories worth their weight Those who've never bled Never knew what victory meant Today I face my reflection No longer seeking approval My scars are treasures now My fear drives me forward Because at journey's end The time it took won't matter But how each wound you bore Gave you the strength to dare And if I fall again today Tomorrow I'll rise once more
