This Is Where You Rise

You've been the shadow, you've been the flame
You've been the whisper, you've carried the blame
Every no, every door slammed in your face
Became the fire that taught you your grace

They didn't see the nights you prayed
Or every silent war you made
But you kept your head up through the rain
And nothing will ever be the same

You don't need their eyes to see your worth
You've been enough since the day of your birth

This is where you rise, higher than the storm
This is where your scars turn into gold
Every tear was building you a crown
They can't break you now
This is where you shine, brighter than the pain
This is where you dance in the pouring rain
You've been down, you've been low
But I know, I know
This is where you rise

You've been the silence they tried to erase
But your voice found light in the darkest place
Every fall taught you how to stand
Now you're stronger than you ever planned

For the dreamers told they're too much
For the broken hearts afraid to trust
For the quiet souls who still believe
I'm singing so the world can see

You don't need a stage to change the world
The loudest song is the truth you hold

This is where you rise, higher than the storm
This is where your scars turn into gold
Every tear was building you a crown
They can't break you now
This is where you shine, brighter than the pain
This is where you dance in the pouring rain
You've been down, you've been low
But I know, I know
This is where you rise

Hands up for every fight you've won in silence
Hands up for every soul that chose defiance
You are the fire, you are the proof
You're beautiful, unbreakable truth

This is where you rise, higher than the storm
This is where your scars turn into gold
Every tear was building you a crown
They can't break you now
This is where you shine, brighter than the pain
This is where you dance in the pouring rain
You've been down, you've been low
But I know, I know
This is where you rise
