[Intro]
I start from the dust, with a stubborn flame inside
Counting small wins, letting hope be my guide
[Verse 1]
From cracked sidewalks to late-night grind, I learned to stand
Notebook dreams in my pocket, faith holding my hand
Doubt tried to whisper, but I answered with a stride
One step, then two, I refused to hide
[Pre-Chorus]
When the road got long and the nights felt cold
I reminded my heart: you’re worth more than gold
[Chorus]
I’m rising up, I’m leveling up, we rise as one
From every setback to the wins we’ve won
We’re in this together, push and pull, we’re shining bright
Together we climb, together we light the night
[Verse 2]
I spoke my truth aloud, watched fear shrink in the light
Believed in the work I do, kept aiming for the height
Whispered prayers in the dark, then moved toward the dawn
Progress is progress, even when the moments are long
[Bridge]
Dream big, stay bold, keep faith in your core
Each small triumph opens another door
[Chorus]
I’m rising up, I’m leveling up, we rise as one
From every setback to the wins we’ve won
We’re in this together, push and pull, we’re shining bright
Together we climb, together we light the night
[Verse 3]
Now I carry the story of where I began
Humility in my pocket, courage in my hands
Future’s not a distant shore, it’s this breath I own
From humble roots to a brighter throne
[Chorus]
I’m rising up, I’m leveling up, we rise as one
From every setback to the wins we’ve won
We’re in this together, push and pull, we’re shining bright
Together we climb, together we light the night
[Outro]
Dreams became steps, and steps became a life
I walk in gratitude, strength guiding my stride
