Reborn Here, Now Without Baggage

Reborn here, now without baggage
Antithesis of a storm's wind
Peace inside, she can now salvage
Conversations with her old friend

Time has elapsed, where has it gone?
Reborn here, now without baggage
Smile on her face, chatting 'til dawn
Amazed by her strength and courage

First step, she finally managed
Escaped a hellish existence
Reborn here, now without baggage
Her future, little resistance

Stand tall girl, be free from it all
Behind you is all the damage
Endured the abuse, you didn't fall
Reborn here, now without baggage
