[Verse 1]
In the dim blinds of a room where memories stay,
I trace the scars of storms that learned my name.
A broken road hums under a streetlamp's gaze,
I whisper to the night, I won't break today.
The rain writes my prayers on a windowpane,
Every breath weighs heavy, but I call it sane.
I lost some light but kept a stubborn flame,
I won't surrender to the dark's cold claim.
[Verse 2]
The clock keeps time with a tired, patient hand,
I carry old wounds like weathered marks on skin.
If fear is a shadow, I'll learn its name and stand,
Step by step I march through the grit and sin.
The blues seep deep, but resolve runs higher,
I guard a heartbeat that refuses to retire.
When sorrow stings, I breathe and rebuild,
I choose the fight, and keep my stubborn shield.
[Chorus]
it's necessary to bow down and pray, it's necessary
To keep the flame alive when the rain refuses to clear
I lace my fear with stubborn, iron will
I'll rise again, even when the shadows leer
[Bridge]
If sorrow is a sea, I learn to swim with pain
I tell my heart, stay steady, hold the line
The horizon smolders, but hope returns again
This is the turning, the stubborn climb toward light
[Chorus]
it's necessary to bow down and pray, it's necessary
To keep the flame alive when the rain refuses to clear
I lace my fear with stubborn, iron will
I'll rise again, even when the shadows leer
[Outro]
The night keeps its blues, but I keep my fight
Morning finds me standing, weathered but bright
