rise high with a sober mind

I rise from the ashes, like a phoenix in flight, Battlin' demons, but I'm holdin' on tight, Momma bear's strength, got my heart in the fight, Through the struggle and pain, I embrace the light. These streets tried to claim me, but I found my way, Every step that I take, I’m breakin' the gray, Got my kids in my vision, they’re the reason I stay, With love in my heart, I’m learnin' to play. Addiction's a monster, but I’m takin' it down, Worn from the battles, but I’m wearin’ my crown, Every tear that I shed, I’m turnin' around, In this journey of life, I’m reclaimin' my sound. No more shadows lurkin’, I’m chasin' the sun, With my family beside me, I know we’ve just begun, Through the storms and the trials, I’m risin’ as one, Stayin' alive for my kids, the fight is never done Fell deep in the void, where the shadows reside, Lost sight of my purpose, almost slipped and died, Pills in my system, they were feeding my pride, But the thought of my kids pulled me back from the tide. Fighting demons daily, yeah, the struggle was real, Had to break the chains, now I’m learning to heal, Used to drown in the bottle, now I'm chasing the light, Every step that I take, man, I’m ready to fight. Gave up the vices, traded nights for the dawn, Now I’m building a future, got my armor on strong, Sober mind, clear vision, yeah, I’m on a new path, Every moment I breathe, I’m embracing the math. Count the blessings I’ve gained, yeah, I’m rich in my soul, Rewriting my story, now I’m taking control, For my kids, for my life, I’m a warrior bold, Turning pain into power, watch my legacy unfold.
