I've been wearing shadows like a second skin
Carrying the voices I let settle in
Every chain I forged was molded out of fear
But my soul won't die in the dark down here

So I burn the name that I thought was mine
Step through the shadows into the light

I'm not who I was, I'm who I decide
The fire in my soul is the light that guides
Every road I walk is a choice I make
I live in truth, I will not break
I am
I am
I am free

All my yesterdays tried to hold me down
But I'm the architect of the life I've found
No one writes a script that I can't rewrite
I'm a spark in the dark turning into light

And I burn the bridge they built for me
To walk the world they said I'd never see

I'm not who I was, I'm who I decide
The fire in my soul is the light that guides
Every road I walk is a choice I make
I live in truth, I will not break
I am
I am
I am free

Every scar's a star, a constellation
Every wound a seed, a revelation
And if I fall, I'll still rise in flames
I won't answer when they call my name

I'm not who I was, I'm who I decide
The fire in my soul is the light that guides
Every road I walk is a choice I make
I live in truth, I will not break
I am
I am
I am free
