My Story, My Time

I've carried the weight of a thousand nights.
Worked through the dark, prayed for the light.
Calloused hands and a withered face.
Still standing strong — I won't lose this race.

The world won't wait, the hour is near.
The moment is calling, and it's crystal clear.
I've been down before, but I won't stay.
This is the fire that leads the way.

This is my story,
my mountain to climb.
From the ashes I'm rising,
it's my turn, my time.
Every scar is a sign,
every tear is a sign.
I won't waste another heartbeat
standing in line.

This is my story, my voice, my fight.
I'm breaking the chains, and I'll shine tonight.

I've seen the years deep in my skin.
Every loss taught me where to begin.
Dreams don't fade when the spirit is strong.
I've waited too long — it's time to be alone.
