Lyrics ✍️

Verse
I walked through fire and the ashes stayed
A million storms but my soul never swayed
In the shadow of doubt I built my frame
Every scar a story every tear a name

Chorus
We’re not alone no the night won’t win
I’ll carry the light let the healing begin
Through the chaos and cracks there’s a spark to ignite
Together we rise we’ll find our guiding light

Verse 2
I know the sting when the truth’s denied
When love feels like a battlefield inside
But I’ve climbed from the wreckage I’ve seen the sky
There’s hope in the rubble where dreams never die

Chorus
We’re not alone no the night won’t win
I’ll carry the light let the healing begin
Through the chaos and cracks there’s a spark to ignite
Together we rise we’ll find our guiding light

Bridge
The world may bend but it won’t break me down
Through the noise of despair I hear a stronger sound
It’s the beat of our hearts it’s the rhythm of hope
In this dance of survival we’ll learn to cope

Chorus
We’re not alone no the night won’t win
I’ll carry the light let the healing begin
Through the chaos and cracks there’s a spark to ignite
Together we rise we’ll find our guiding light

A Note From My Heart to Yours

Clinical Insight

This song was born in the space between complete brokenness and sacred becoming. It’s my tribute to the love that found me when I didn’t know how to ask - that showed me love isn’t earned but transforms.

The “podium of love” is where we stand when we finally understand: the love planted in us is a light that guides us home. Every note carries my promise to parse this gift and give it back through music.

This song operationalizes Complex PTSD recovery through musical narrative. The progression from “breathed poison” to “I protect the light” demonstrates boundary embodiment.

In my deepest sorrow, I found the strength to continue the battle to freedom. This rising is my weapon of gratitude.

Through this process, and with the help of AI tools like ChatGPT, I started to explore concepts that gave language to my experience. I stumbled upon ideas I never knew existed, like Complex PTSD and the profound Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) methodology. actmindfully.com.au

The music you find here is the result of that journey. It’s my soul’s expression of finding resilience. My only goal is to share my voice and my spirit, hoping it helps you feel that you are not alone in this. This is about connection, not treatment.
