(Ooooh—I survived…)
Hit the ground hard,
heard the whole world crack,
Lost what I had,
had to build it all back.
They were counting me out while I counted each scar— Funny thing
about falling: now I know who you are.
I survived the fall!
(Survived it!) Lost it all— (Still rising!) Hit that ground,
came alive, Found out falling ain't the same as dying.
I SURVIVED THE FALL!
I SURVIVED IT ALL!
Thought the bottom was the end— Turns out that's where I learned
to crawl. Had nights with the ceiling staring back at me,
No plan B, no guarantee.
Friends disappeared when the shine got weak,
Learned silence says things that mouths won't speak.
Broke down, got up,
broke twice, stood tall,
Learned more from losing than having it all.
Every closed door put strength in the wall,
Every ‘you can't’ made me want it more.
I don't romanticize pain—I remember the cost,
Every sleepless night, every piece that I lost.
But you can't scare a man with the thought he might fall
When he's already been down there and survived it all.
You call it falling— (We call it flying.) You call it over—
(We call it timing.) You saw the ending— (We saw the climb.)
Then watch me rise.
I survived the fall!
(Survived it!) Lost it all— (Still rising!) Hit that ground,
came alive, Found out falling ain't the same as dying.
I SURVIVED THE FALL!
I SURVIVED IT ALL!
Thought the bottom was the end—
Turns out that's where I learned to crawl.
Now I walk different 'cause I know what breaks,
Know who's real when there's nothing to take.
Know one bad year ain't a lifetime fate,
Know sometimes losing is an exit gate.
No cape, no miracle,
nobody came, Just stubborn little steps through the wind and rain.
Dirt on my shirt,
doubt in my brain,
Dragged my name through the fire and came out again.
Nah—better. More scars, less fear,
Less worried who disappears.
If tomorrow drops me from the atmosphere,
Tell gravity I've already been here.
(HE'S BEEN HERE!)
The fall didn't kill me.
The fall introduced
me. (To
yourself…)
I SURVIVED THE FALL!
(SURVIVED IT!) I SURVIVED IT
ALL! (STILL RISING!) Hit that ground,
came alive, Found out falling ain't the same as dying.
If
the world knocks me down tomorrow—fine.
I already know how
to rise. (RISE! RISE!
RISE!)
I survived the fall.
