Can you hear me through the smoke…?
Every word they tried to burn
Now returns, a lesson learned
Voices buried in the flame
Calling back my stolen name
I was silent, I was still
But the fire broke my will
Through the ashes, I arise
Truth is written in my cries
I scream from the ashes of my voice
Broken, bleeding, still my choice
Tore me down, but I became
The echo you can’t contain
Glass and stone beneath my feet
Shattered paths I had to meet
Every cut, a melody
Singing out the real in me
I won’t bow, I won’t erase
Every scar has found its place
Through the silence, I ignite
I was made to stand and fight
I scream from the ashes of my voice
Broken, bleeding, still my choice
Tore me down, but I became
The echo you can’t contain
They tried to write me out
But I turned the page with a shout
I don’t need their praise
Just the truth I blaze
I scream from the ashes of my voice
Every fall became my noise
Can’t forget, can’t be denied
I’m the fire they couldn’t hide
Can you hear me now…
Through the smoke?
