[Verse]
I gave you my nights and my weary heart
Built you a throne with every broken part
You walked away like none of it was real
Left me in a haze with nothing to feel
[Chorus]
But I’m rising up from this shadowed place
Wiping the tears that stained my face
What you took won’t keep me down for long
I’ll build an empire you can’t belong
[Verse 2]
Sank in a sea where the sun didn’t glow
Buried beneath where no one would go
You laughed while I crumbled at your feet
But I’m a phoenix now ain’t that sweet
[Chorus]
And I’m rising up from this shadowed place
Wiping the tears that stained my face
What you broke won’t haunt me anymore
I’m reclaiming all that you ignored
[Bridge]
You thought I’d be your greatest regret
A boy left dim like a cigarette
But I turned my scars into a crown
Your memory’s fading as I own this town
[Chorus]
And I’ve risen up from this shadowed place
No tears remain to drown my space
What you left ignited my fire
I’m soaring now reaching higher
