age 8

[Intro] 8 years old, stood on the edge, Felt like the world was crushin' me, no pledge, Took a leap of faith, but it wasn't in the air, Tryna escape the pain, but I didn't know I'd care. [Verse 1] Darkness surrounded me, like a never-endin' night, Felt like nobody heard me, like I was fightin' a lonely fight, The wind rushed past me, as I fell to the ground, But somehow I got up, and I didn't back down. [Chorus] I was broken, but I'm mendin' my pieces, Puttin' myself back together, like a puzzle that releases, I'm findin' my strength, in the darkest of places, And I'm risin' up, with a newfound face. [Verse 2] It's been a long journey, but I'm still here today, I'm still fightin' the battles, but I'm findin' my way, I'm learnin' to love myself, and to let go of the pain, And I'm findin' my voice, to speak up and to claim. [Outro] Now I'm standin' tall, and I'm feelin' alive, I'm still healin' the wounds, but I'm ready to thrive, I'm takin' back control, and I'm makin' my move, And I won't let the darkness, define the way I move.
