Used to shrink when the world got loud  
Now I walk with my head unbowed  
You can doubt me, I don’t mind  
Truth don’t need to hide behind  
No apologies, I’m standing tall  
Took my pain, now I own it all  
Let ‘em talk, I know my flame  
Every step, I bless my name  
Even in silence, I’m still loud  
My rhythm speaks, I’m soul and proud  
I’ve been broken, I’ve been bruised  
But I never once refused  
Now I rise, I claim my part  
With fire breathin' from my heart  
No apologies, I’m standing tall  
Took my pain, now I own it all  
Let ‘em talk, I know my flame  
Every step, I bless my name  
I shine softer, but I shine strong  
A quiet power all along
