Rising from the Ashes
Rising Beyond Shadows: A Journey of Healing and Strength
Lyrics
Traumatised I need a place to hide
Trauma has left me seeking refuge
Lacking trust its been roughed up
My trust has been significantly damaged
With no apology in sight
There's no sign of an apology
Left deep in a fright
Deeply frightened and unsettled
At the thought of noone by my side
I fear being alone
Need a place to run to
I'm searching for a safe haven
Need someone to look to
I need someone for support
Wondering where I'll go to
Uncertain about my destination
If not you
Wondering what will happen if I don't have you
Rising from the ashes
Recovering and emerging stronger
Rising to the sun
Progressing towards brighter times
Thought that I was broken
Previously thought to be damaged, but now transformed
Now look what I've become
Look at the positive change I've undergone
Rising from the ashes
Continuing to rise despite hardships
Rising to the sun
Heading towards positivity and growth
Thought I wasn't coping
Believed I couldn't handle it, but now I have
Now look what I have done
Witness the achievement despite initial doubts
One step at a time
Taking gradual steps forward
Got to break these patterns
Breaking old, negative habits
Switching up bad habits
Changing detrimental behaviors
So trapped up in these toxic cycles
Stuck in harmful cycles of toxicity
My future refuses to be so tragic
My future won't be as bleak
Coz I hold the power, I hold the magic
I possess the ability and strength
So how can I let go
Struggling to release
This place I built was once a home to me
This place used to feel like home
Now it's feeling so damn cold to me
Now it feels cold and unwelcoming
Sucking up my hope and energy
Draining my optimism and strength
When the nightmares fade away
As the nightmares fade, so does the pain
Along with it goes the pain
Relief comes with the fading of nightmares
But somedays it's okay to not be okay
Accepting that some days it's okay not to be okay
Need a place to run to
Seeking refuge again
Need someone to look to
Searching for someone to rely on
Wondering where I'll go to
Uncertain about where to turn
If not you
Contemplating the consequences of losing you
Rising from the ashes
Recovering and growing despite adversity
Rising to the sun
Progressing towards brightness and hope
Thought that I was broken
Previously felt damaged, now transformed
Now look what I've become
Reflecting on the positive change
Rising from the ashes
Continuing to rise above challenges
Rising to the sun
Heading towards a better place
Thought I wasn't coping
Once thought I couldn't handle it, now I have
Now look what I have done
Recognizing personal growth and achievement
One step at a time
Progressing gradually
