Learning to Rise Again

[Intro]  
Every morning's a battle, I rise from the storm,  
A mind full of echoes, in a world that feels warm.  
Brian Penn, I'm learning, to navigate this maze,  
Beneath the shadows, I’ll break through the haze.  
[Verse 1]  
Some days I’m a warrior, ready to fight,  
Other days I'm a ghost, fading out of sight.  
The questions keep clawing, like a thief in the night,  
In the silence I wonder, where’s the end in this plight?  
[Pre-Chorus]  
Triggers like thunder, they shake through my core,  
Memories flood back, I can't settle the score.  
Just learning each moment, to stand then to fall,  
I’m searching for answers, but I’m hitting the wall.  
[Chorus]  
Why me? I ask the mirror, as the shadows play,  
When you’re loved by a monster, it dims the light of day.  
But I’m rising like a phoenix, from the ashes of pain,  
Each step I’m reclaiming, there’s strength in the rain.  
[Verse 2]  
I recall the whispers, the lies that they weave,  
Every punch and the silence, I couldn’t believe.  
They took all my courage, locked it deep inside,  
But through the cracks of this heart, there’s a spark I can't hide.  
[Pre-Chorus]  
Every day is a lesson, a chance to ignite,  
With hope painted darkly, I’ll find my own light.  
The battle is real, but I’m learning to fight,  
In this journey for freedom, I’ll embrace the night.  
[Chorus]  
Why me? I ask the mirror, as the shadows play,  
When you’re loved by a monster, it dims the light of day.  
But I’m rising like a phoenix, from the ashes of pain,  
Each step I’m reclaiming, there’s strength in the rain.  
[Bridge]  
Who I was, what I’ve done, it's only a part,  
I'm building a fortress, brick by brick in my heart.  
Each tear’s a reminder, each scar tells my story,  
Through the darkest of nights, I'll walk towards my glory.  
[Chorus]  
Why me? I ask the mirror, but I’m finding my way,  
The echoes of yesterday won’t hold me at bay.  
I’m a warrior rising, I’ll embrace who I am,  
Through the fire and fury, I'll make my own stand.  
[Outro]  
So here’s to tomorrow, with each breath I take,  
I’m healing within, and I won’t break.  
From Brian Penn to the skies, watch me soar and break free,  
In this fight for my soul, I’ll finally be me.
