Stronger Than The Storm

Some days I'm drowning Can't catch my breath A heavy heart A life of regret The kids are crying The bills are late It feels like I'm trapped By the hands of fate But when I stop And take a glance I see the shadow Of a second chance This wasn't the life I thought I'd see But I'll rise above I'll break free I'm stronger than the storms I face I'll find my light in the darkest place Every wrong turn Every mistake Built the fire it takes to remake I'll keep climbing I won't let go There's a version of me The world doesn't know I played the fool I took the fall Chose the short road And hit the wall But through the cracks The sunlight streams I'm holding tight To forgotten dreams I can't blame the world For what I've done It's up to me to overcome The weight is heavy But I won't bend This is the fight that'll never end I'm stronger than the storms I face I'll find my light in the darkest place Every wrong turn Every mistake Built the fire it takes to remake I'll keep climbing I won't let go There's a version of me The world doesn't know The person I'm meant to be Is waiting Every step forward I'm recreating I've been through the worst But I'm still here I'll trade my doubt for faith Not fear I'm stronger than the storms I face I'll find my light in the darkest place Every wrong turn Every mistake Built the fire it takes to remake I'll keep climbing I won't let go There's a version of me The world doesn't know So here I stand My head held high No more"what ifs" Or wondering why Each new day's A chance to begin To fight for the person I've always been
