RAP. . Song: Rising From the Dust.

Can't sleep, mind racing
Heart pacing, thoughts chasing
What if, what when
Again and again

Standing at the edge of everything I've known
Feeling like I'm drowning but I'm still alone
Clock keeps ticking, time keeps slipping through my hands
Can't understand these shifting sands

Tell me how to breathe when the air gets thin
Tell me how to win when I'm caving in
Need to find my way back to who I am
Before I break, before I can't

Rising up, rising up
From the dust, from the rust
Rising up, rising up

Started feeling heavy in my chest today
Words unsaid, they weigh me down in every way
You keep asking if I'm fine, I say I'm good
But underneath, misunderstood

Mirror shows a stranger staring back at me
Questions in her eyes I cannot guarantee
Answers to the riddles that keep spinning round
Lost but not completely found

Every door I open leads to something new
Terrifying beauty in the morning dew
Pressure in my temples when I think too hard
About the distance, near and far

You said I was stronger than I think I am
Maybe you were right, maybe this is the plan
Walking through the valley of uncertainty
Learning who I'm meant to be

Seasons change and so do I, that's just the truth
Finding power in the pain of growing youth
Every scar tells a story of survival
Every breath is my revival
Used to think that certainty was what I needed
Now I see that doubt can be what feeds it
Strength inside the struggle, light inside the storm
This is how a warrior is born

Standing at the edge of everything unknown
But this time I'm not scared to stand alone
Fire in my belly, steel inside my spine
The path ahead is mine, is mine

Can't sleep, mind racing
Heart pacing, but I'm braving
What if, what when
I'll rise again and again
