Still Rising

But every scar across my skin reminds me where I've already been,
And every mile behind these eyes taught me how to survive.
The road got rough, the years got long,
But somehow I'm still holding on.
I'm still rising, higher than before.
Every time life knocked me down, I found another door.
Still rising.
Still rising.
The fire never left my soul.
Hold on.
Still rising.
I've seen dark nights stretch for miles,
Felt the weight behind my smile.
But the man I am right now was built by every fall somehow.
