Lyrics
[Verse 1] This is to you, who made the hardest choice, the bravest choice, when you found your voice. You walked away with shaking hands, not knowing where the road would end. You left behind what broke your heart, and carried every piece out of the dark. One more step. One more day. You chose. You lived. You carried on. [Pre-Chorus] Dark nights. Blinding lights. Still you fight. Piece by piece, you found your ground, rebuilt hope, learned to stand. [Chorus] I chose myself. I chose to stay. I found my strength along the way. Through the fire. Through the rain. You tried to break me. I rose again. I lost myself. Then found my way. You couldn't take the light away. Still here. Still breathing. Still becoming. I chose myself. [Verse 2] There were nights you couldn't sleep, when every memory ran too deep. You looked back and saw the scars, counted every battle from afar. You thought the past would pull you under. You thought your fear would last forever. But every scar became a story. Every wound left something behind. You weren't broken. You were changing. You were learning to reclaim your life. [Pre-Chorus 2] Feed your power. Feed your fire. Remember what you've made it through. When the ground begins to shake, hold on to every step you've made. [Bridge] Life can be a mirror, reflecting all the scars you thought defined you. But what you see is not who you are. Look through the cracks. Look beyond the scars. There's a fire underneath. There's a heart that still believes. "I am not the person you tried to make me." "I am still here." [Build] No more waiting. No more hiding. No more running from what kept me fighting. Every breakdown. Every failure. Every night I thought I'd never see daylight. Every door that closed. Every hand that let me go. Every time I hit the bottom taught me how to grow. I remember. I remember who I was. And I won't go back. I won't go back. I won't go back. [THE BOOST] Still here! Still breathing! Still burning! Still believing! I fell! I broke! I lost my way! But I got up another day! I RISE! I RISE! I RISE AGAIN! Through the fire! Through the rain! You couldn't take my soul away! STILL HERE! STILL HERE! Hear me now! I am alive! I am alive! [Final Chorus] I chose myself. I chose to stay. I found my strength along the way. Through the fire. Through the rain. You tried to break me. I rose again. Still here. Still breathing. Still becoming. I chose myself. [Outro] You made the hardest choice. You made the bravest choice. You chose. You lived. You became yourself. The road didn't save you. It was you.
