Reborn (Debut Version) Lyrics

I see the cracks in your smile, but you don't even know

The weight you left behind, still burning my soul

You thought you had me cornered, you'd break me down

But now I stand tall, no chains, and I wear your crown

Your lies were a lesson, yeah, they taught me well

I'm rising from the ashes, I'm escaping your spell

I'm building my empire by hand, brick by brick

While you're stuck in the past, unsure what to pick

But in the hurt between us, I can see the truth

That somewhere deep inside, I'm still missing you

I thought I could be stronger, could carry it all

But now I realize, I left you behind, let you fall

Revenge or reconciliation, what will we decide

But I'll rise like a phoenix, reborn with fire inside

You say you're sorry, but what if it's too late

I'll rise or forgive, you know that I won't wait

This war within burns, It's tearing me apart

But when I'm reborn, I'll heal my heart

I can feel the scars you left, they run so deep

But I'm still holding on to a love I wanted to keep

You want to make things right, but the time's been lost

Now I wonder if the pain was worth what it cost

You speak of change, but then the silence is deep

You say you're sorry, that I'm what you wanted to keep

I've fought my demons, but I'm tired of this fight

Do I move on, or wait for you to find the light

You've turned your back, I know I should walk away,

But the hope still burns, is there a world where you stay

You want to fix what we broke, but that takes trust

You tore us apart, turned what we built to dust

Revenge or reconciliation, what will we decide

But I'll rise like a phoenix, reborn with fire inside

You say you're sorry, but what if it's too late

I'll rise or forgive, you know that I won't wait

This war within burns, It's tearing me apart

But when I'm reborn, I'll heal my heart

In this limbo, know that we're both so lost

Torn between the future and the past we've crossed

But I can't pretend that I'm not still scarred

And I can't pretend that it hasn't been hard

Maybe healing starts with a simple choice

Hear me out, follow the sound of my voice

Revenge or reconciliation, now I see

We both have to heal, and it starts with me

I'll rise above the pain, but I'll never forget

We were both broken, but we're not done yet

This war between us, yeah, now it's fading away

we'll heal the pain, but it's on our terms, our way

So let's step forward, side by side

With the past behind us, no more lies

Revenge and reconciliation, maybe we'll find, (maybe we'll find)

The middle ground, and leave it all behind (behind, behind)

In this limbo, know that we're both so lost

Torn between the future and the past we've crossed

But I can't pretend that I'm not still scarred

And I can't pretend that it hasn't been hard
