[Intro]
I lace my courage like a brand-new pair of heels, bold and loud
City lights flicker on her silhouette, I’m marching through the crowd
[Verse 1]
She walked out the door with a whisper turned roar, a story untold
Mother’s hands on her shoulders, taught her to break the mold
Grades in the books, debts in the air, but her head stays up
Body says pause, heart says push, she fills her cup
In the mirror, she sees futures she’s building from the ground
Chasing the horizon where limits are myths to be found
Voices tried to drown her, but she learned to roar over the doubt
Turning every setback into a script where she writes her own route
[Chorus]
I am the flame in a city of glass
I rise, I fight, I refuse to pass
I own my scars, they map what I am
Watch me light the night, bold as I can
[Verse 2]
She talks back to the noise, with a grin that says I belong
Entrepreneurial fire in her eyes, she bet on the long
Hometown whispers, she packed them in a suitcase of plans
Now she stamps her name on futures with confident hands
Systems may shake, timelines may warp, but she stands tall
Networks connect, mentors reflect the power in her call
Every setback a lesson, every setback a proof
That resilience is a weapon, and she wears it as truth
[Chorus]
I am the flame in a city of glass
I rise, I fight, I refuse to pass
I own my scars, they map what I am
Watch me light the night, bold as I can
[Bridge]
From quiet streets to boardroom sheets, she breaks the ceiling crack by crack
Voices that said no met a louder no: watch me come back
[Chorus]
I am the flame in a city of glass
I rise, I fight, I refuse to pass
I own my scars, they map what I am
Watch me light the night, bold as I can
[Outro]
She walks forward, not the same, a compass in the rain
Story etched in every step, power learned through the strain
