Unshakeable Spirit

I learned the weight of a closing door

Counted

every crack in the concrete floor

They took my days,

tried to take my name

But a locked-up room can't hold a flame

Now the morning hits

like a siren call

I was bent, not broken,

I remember it all

I’m walking out with my head held high

No more living underneath their sky

They can keep the chains,

they can keep the blame I came back breathing,

I came back changed You can’t bury a heart that knows its

worth

I’m taking my place on this wide,

wide earth

I got scars where the silence grew

And a

long list of things I’m gonna do

Every mile is a piece of me

Every breath

is a new decree

I won’t ask the past

to let me go

I’ll leave it standing where

the shadows grow

I’m walking out with my head held high

No more living

underneath their sky

They can keep the chains,

they can keep the blame I came back breathing,

I came back changed

You can’t bury a heart that knows its worth I’m taking my

place on this wide,

wide earth

If they see the number,

let them see the truth There’s more to a life than the

worst thing you do

I paid my debt,

but I’m not my debt

I’m not finished, not even yet

I’m walking out with my head held high Feel the whole horizon

opening wide They can keep the chains,

they can keep the blame I came back breathing,

I came back changed

You can’t bury a heart that knows its worth I’m taking my

place on this wide,

wide earth I’m taking my place,

I’m taking my place
