Lyrics

Life was good, filled with joy, I had started my family
Then one day, my rainbow changed
to a dark cloud that poured over me
Doctors told me I was sick, it all happened so suddenly
Still so young and full of dreams to be faced with my mortality

We all have our fears we hide from and this one
stared into my eyes
And I vowed this would make me stronger, not be my demise
I've got life to live, I've got work to do and it's not my time
Found my strength deep inside and it kept me
alive through the fight

From this struggle I rise
Take my wings and I fly
Through the darkness I shine
I'm a warrior, this can't take me down

From this struggle I rise
Take my wings and I fly
Through the darkness I shine
I'm a warrior, this can't take me down

Through this journey so much
was revealed through it still seems a great mystery
Why this darkness came into my life,
I suppose it's a lesson for me
Our character is defined by the way that we deal with adversity
So I chose to reflect on the ways
I was blessed no not dwell on my suffering

From this struggle I rise
Take my wings and I fly
Through the darkness I shine
I'm a warrior, this can't take me down

And I just prayed for the grace to rise up in the face
of this difficulty
And I never once doubted that
I had the power to rule my destiny
Life is full of so many surprises aint nothing predictable
But one thing I know is we all have the courage
to fight for our survival
