Built From Broken

Yeah I was built from broken pieces Turned the pain into a reason Let’s go I’ve been down in the dark where the cold thoughts live Had a smile on my face but my soul went missing Everybody wanna talk when the shine looks bright But they never saw the nights when I had to fight I was running from myself, I was losing my breath Had a war in my mind, had a weight on my chest They said “Calm down”, but they don’t know pressure I was digging through pain just to find some treasure I don’t need your pity, I don’t need your praise I just need one shot, I just need my lane I’ve been knocked down, dragged out, left in the rain Now I walk through the storm like I own that place I got scars, yeah, but scars don’t lie They remind me every day that I didn’t die I got fear in my blood, got fire in my eyes If I fall one more time, I still rise I hear the voices in my head They tell me I’m not enough But I’ve been fighting with my demons Now I’m calling their bluff I was built from broken Made from the ashes Heart wide open Still I’m standing You can’t break what’s already been shattered You can’t kill what’s fighting for answers I was built from broken Now I’m unbreakable I don’t flex for the crowd, I don’t chase no trend I’m just tryna make peace with the kid within All the doubt, all the shame, all the nights I hid Turned the pain to a flame, now I live like this I’ve been quiet too long, had to sharpen the blade Not a weapon in my hand, just the words I say Every line that I write got a piece of me Every song that I drop is a victory I remember being lost with no map, no guide Looking up at the stars like “Am I alive?” Now I’m aiming at the sky with a heart full of rage Turn the cage to a stage, turn the fear to a wave You don’t know what it took just to breathe today You don’t know what I lost on the way But I’m here, still loud, still locked in If the world goes cold, I burn from within I hear the voices in my head They tell me I’m not enough But I’ve been fighting with my demons Now I’m calling their bluff I was built from broken Made from the ashes Heart wide open Still I’m standing You can’t break what’s already been shattered You can’t kill what’s fighting for answers I was built from broken Now I’m unbreakable I don’t run from the pain now I let it speak I don’t hide from the rain now It made me clean Every cut, every loss Every night I couldn’t sleep Was a step, was a cost Was the price of being me I was built from broken Made from the ashes Heart wide open Still I’m standing You can’t break what’s already been shattered You can’t kill what’s fighting for answers I was built from broken Now I’m unbreakable Yeah Built from broken But I’m still breathing Still fighting Still here
