I'm Alive

Lights low, mirror knows my name
I breathe in, I'm not the same
No voice, but every move speaks loud
I disappear into the sound

I don't need to be seen to exist
Every step is a promise I keep
In the silence, I finally feel
Something real under my skin

I'm alive when I move
When the rhythm pulls me through
Every scar fades in the night
When I dance, I'm choosing life
I'm alive when I'm here
In this body I chose to wear
Don't touch me, don't define
I'm alive, and I'm mine

Eyes around me, I stay calm
Soft control, open palms
No lies, just shapes and time
I bend, I glow, I realign

They don't know what I survived
They don't hear what's in my mind
But I'm steady, I don't fall
I'm standing taller in the dark

I'm alive when I move
When the rhythm pulls me through
Every scar fades in the night
When I dance, I'm choosing life
I'm alive when I'm here
In this skin, crystal-clear
No permission, no disguise

I'm alive, look in my eyes

If this is a dream
Don't wake me yet
If this is escape
I earned every step
I don't owe the world my pain
I don't owe them explanations

I'm alive when I move
When I finally let go of you
I don't need to justify
Why I feel more real inside
I'm alive, I'm aligned
Every motion redefines
This is me, no alibi
I'm alive
I'm alive

Fade the lights
Hold the beat
Let me stay
Where I breathe
