Rise Again

I grew up where silence screamed louder than words,
A house without shelter, a heart that always hurt.
Every night was another war I couldn't escape,
A child trapped inside a never-ending maze.

The hands that should have protected me
Left scars no eyes could ever see.
Months were stolen, innocence erased,
My soul learned fear before it learned grace.

You broke the child, but not the will.
You buried my voice, yet it's beating still.
I'm a soldier who rises again.
Every wound became my strength.
Every tear became my flame.
You couldn't destroy the person I became.

I carry ghosts beneath my skin,
But I refuse to let them win.
The darkness follows where I go,
Yet I keep marching through the cold.

I hate you forever, Mother.
Those words will never fade away.
You took my childhood, you took my trust,
But you'll never take the man I've become.

I'm a soldier who rises again.
From broken bones and endless pain.
I stand alive where hope was slain—
A soldier who rises again.
