Breathe Again
Rising from Darkness: Ethan Jewell's Anthem of Resilience
Lyrics
I was trapped and now I’m free
I have overcome a difficult situation and now feel liberated.
The door was locked, but I found the key
Despite challenges, I discovered a solution to my problems.
Crashing waves have kept me beneath my mental surface
Mental struggles have kept me submerged, like crashing waves.
But I’m coming back up, break the water and find my purpose
I'm resurfacing, breaking through difficulties to find my purpose.
Because I can breathe again
I can breathe freely again, symbolizing relief and renewal.
I can obtain that happiness despite where I’ve been
I can find happiness despite the challenges I've faced.
Because sometimes, I got myself messed up beyond my belief
I acknowledge making mistakes and being in disbelief about them.
But that’s just where we were, and I've found my relief
I've found relief from past difficulties.
Because I can breathe again
Reiteration of the renewed ability to breathe freely.
I can come up from that water
I can emerge from difficult situations, like rising from water.
Break the surface tension
Breaking through the tension and challenges in life.
Break my tension in my heart as I gasp for air
Overcoming emotional tension and breathing freely.
I can feel again, I can feel these things again
Regaining the ability to feel emotions.
And I’m going to be okay, because I’ve survived the awful days
Surviving difficult days and committing to moving forward.
And I'll keep on pushing, keep on fighting
Persevering and fighting through challenges.
Spread the dark away with lighting
Dispelling darkness with positivity and light.
I’ll make my own path from the dirt
Creating a new path and confronting inner demons.
Fight my demons right where they lurked
Facing personal struggles head-on.
Because I can breathe again
Reiteration of the renewed ability to breathe freely.
The dark grimy water is out of my lungs
Symbolic removal of negative influences from life.
And I can speak again, a language of joyful tongues
Regaining the ability to communicate joyfully.
Climb up this ladder, and damn right, I'll use every single rung
Ascending in life and utilizing every opportunity.
Because my heart is singing, my ears are ringing
Expressing happiness and a sense of self-discovery.
But it’s ringing of joy, a symphony of glee
Experiencing joy and positivity, distancing from darkness.
Away from the dark, find myself, once again, I'll find me
Finding oneself again after overcoming challenges.
I was in a pit, and I found my way out
Escaping a difficult situation and finding a way out.
I can do my own things, because I know what I’m about
Embracing independence and self-awareness.
Follow my dreams, and nobody can stop me
Pursuing personal dreams without hindrance.
A pair of binoculars, only ahead I can see
Looking ahead with clarity and focus.
Break free of the chain, dance in the rain
Breaking free from constraints and celebrating life.
My smile can stomp the frown
Spreading joy and overcoming sadness with a smile.
This dark water can't keep me down
Conquering challenges represented by dark waters.
Because I can breathe again
Reiteration of the renewed ability to breathe freely.
Mom, dad
A direct address to parents, expressing newfound freedom.
I can breathe again
Reiteration of the theme of freedom and renewal.
