Rising Through Stillness

(ooh-ooh-ooh) I wore the weight of yesterday,

Like shadows stitched into my skin.

Every road that turned away

Still whispered, "You can rise again."

When the sky forgets your name,

Be the fire. Feed the flame.

After the storm, I found the sun,

Not because the race was won.

But every tear became the sea,

That carried hope back into me.

I won't break. I won't hide.

I'll wear these scars with pride.

Every ending lights the dawn— I'm still here.

I'm moving on.

Broken dreams can still take flight,

If your heart refuses night.

Every whisper, every fall,

Built the strength to face it all.

If tomorrow calls my name,

I'll answer louder than my pain.

The world may bend,

the winds may roar—

I'll open every locked door.

After the storm, the stars appear,

Brighter than my deepest fear.

Every heartbeat, every breath,

Turns goodbye into the next.

I'm not waiting anymore.

I'm

becoming something more.

This is not where dreams grow old—

This is where they turn to gold.

The storm was never the end...

It was the beginning.
