This song is about going through something big and life changing and coming out stronger. For me it was fighting cancer. Only just over a year ago I was diagnosed and it has been quite a battle so far. But looks like I am winning! Hopefully some people out there can get something positive out of these lyrics.
Lyrics:
[Verse]
Shadows fell but I stood tall
Faced the fight and gave my all
Every scar a badge I wear
Proof that I was always there
[Verse 2]
Nights were long but I held tight
Chased the dawn to find the light
Every tear a river wide
But it carved the strength inside
[Chorus]
I rise again like the morning sun
A battle fought a war I’ve won
Through the pain I found my way
Stronger now I’m here to stay
[Bridge]
The mirror shows a face renewed
A warrior’s heart that can't be subdued
What tried to break me made me whole
It forged the fire in my soul
[Verse 3]
The wind still whispers tales of fear
But I’ve outgrown what kept me here
I walk the path with steady pace
Each step a triumph I embrace
[Chorus]
I rise again like the morning sun
A battle fought a war I’ve won
Through the pain I found my way
Stronger now I’m here to stay
[Bridge]
The mirror shows a face renewed
A warrior’s heart that can't be subdued
What tried to break me made me whole
It forged the fire in my soul
