I looked in the mirror and didn’t see me
Just a sketch of who I used to be
Lines on my face, a colder glow
But deep inside, the fire still grows
I’ve built and broken a hundred times
Wore a smile just to say “I’m fine”
But the silence screamed my name
And I knew… I had to change
There are storms that don’t destroy
They come to clear the sky
And when the rain is done
You see colors you’d never find
It took the fall to rise again
Now I see who I’ve become
No longer hiding from the mirror —
I’m finally looking at someone
Tried to be perfect, tried to belong
Got so good at playing strong
But every mask begins to fade
When you're standing in your own way
The hardest war I ever faced
Was with the ghost behind my face
But now the cracks let in the light
And I’m not afraid to shine
There are storms that don’t destroy
They come to clear the sky
And when the rain is done
You see colors you’d never find
It took the fall to rise again
Now I see who I’ve become
No longer hiding from the mirror —
I’m finally looking at someone
I found myself in broken glass
In all the things I thought would never pass
I touched the pain, and let it stay
Till it slowly washed away
Some storms don’t come to break
They come to teach you how to bend
And after all the rain
You’ll see light you can't pretend
It took the fall to rise again
Now I know who I've become
No longer running from the mirror —
I'm proud of who I’ve become
