[Intro]

I rise above

Through the fire and pain

I rise above

Through the tears and the chains

I rise above

With the scars as my crown

I rise above

And I'm never coming down

[Verse 1]

They pushed me to the edge

Tried to tear me apart

Left me bleeding in the dark

But I’ve got a stronger heart

Every lie they fed me

Every scar that they made

Fuel for fire

Turning pain into my blade

[Chorus]

Shout it out loud

I'm the leader of this fight

I've survived

Now I’m reaching for the light

No more chains

No more shadows in my way

I ascend

And now you know I'm here to stay

[Verse 2]

Blegh!

You turned your back on me

Let me face the storm

But I'm forging my path

I'm breaking the norm

Every wound you gave me

Every false embrace

[Chorus]

Shout it out loud

I'm the leader of this fight

I've survived

Now I'm reaching for the light

No more chains

No more shadows in my way

I ascend

Now you know I'm here to stay

[Bridge]

You thought you’d break me

You thought I’d fall

But I'm a phoenix

Rising from it all

[Verse 3]

You tried to shatter

You tried to bring me low

But I’m a warrior

I've got my own glow

You tried to shatter

You tried to bring me low

But I'm a warrior

I've got my own glow

[Chorus]

Shout it out loud

I’m the leader of this fight

I've survived

Now I'm reaching for the light

No more chains

No more shadows in my way

I ascend

Now you know I'm here to stay

[Outro - muffled]

Shout it out loud

I'm the leader of this fight

I've survived

Now you know I'm here to stay
