Standing Tall

Verse 1 I would rise after each fall, I broke through every single wall, Even when they left me with nothing at all, Here I am, still standing tall. Every night I fought my way, Turned the shadows into day, Took the pain they tried to lay, And I burned it all away. ⸻ Chorus Took every scar and turned it to gold, My silence louder than the stories they told, They tried to chain me, tried to control— But I own my story, I carved out my role. Now I’m standing, standing tall, Even with my back against the wall. ⸻ Verse 2 They can’t erase what I became, I wear the fire inside my veins, I built a kingdom out of the flames, And I’ll never be the same. Storms came and I didn’t hide, I let the thunder be my guide, Tears that fell became my pride, Now the truth is on my side. ⸻ Chorus Took every scar and turned it to gold, My silence louder than the stories they told, They tried to chain me, tried to control— But I own my story, I carved out my role. Now I’m standing, standing tall, Even with my back against the wall. ⸻ Bridge I won’t be broken, I won’t be tamed, The fire inside me, it can’t be contained. Every wound healed, every loss gave me soul, Now I’m unstoppable, I’m taking control. ⸻ Final Chorus / Outro Took every scar and turned it to gold, My silence louder than the stories they told, They tried to chain me, tried to control— But I own my story, I carved out my role. Now I’m standing, standing tall, Yeah, I’m standing, standing tall.
