[Intro]
I walk through the night where the streetlights sting like ice
Footsteps echo truth I’ve learned to face twice
[Verse 1]
I found the echoes of you in a room that wasn’t mine
Whispers in the hallway, glass left trembling on the line
I wore your secrets like a blade, bright and cruel and cold
Heart in a vise of disappointment, breaking, taking hold
[Pre-Chorus]
And I asked the mirror, who am I after the lie?
The answer burned, but I heard it: I’m not broken, I’ll recover, I’ll rise
[Chorus]
You won’t own my breath or the beat of my name
I’m reclaiming the night, I’m ending this game
I march to your door, I’m drawing back the frame
From ashes to power, I rise, I reclaim
[Verse 2]
I stood on your threshold where the truth spills like rain
Knuckles white, I spoke your truth back with a louder name
I met her doubt with my own resolve, I cut the cord clean
I chose my worth over the shadows of what might have been
[Pre-Chorus]
The room grew loud with courage I forgot I had
I found a stronger voice, a will I used to dab at tears with glad
[Chorus]
You won’t own my breath or the beat of my name
I’m reclaiming the night, I’m ending this game
I march to your door, I’m drawing back the frame
From ashes to power, I rise, I reclaim
[Bridge]
Pain is a fire, but I am the spark that stays
I’ll stitch the scars into banners, wear them like sunlit blaze
No more whispers of doubt, I’m louder than your lies
I’m the truth you cannot erase, I’m waking with open eyes
[Chorus]
You won’t own my breath or the beat of my name
I’m reclaiming the night, I’m ending this game
I march to your door, I’m drawing back the frame
From ashes to power, I rise, I reclaim
[Outro]
The door closes softly on what I won’t bear again
I walk toward tomorrow, with courage as my friend
