Through the storm
I'm taking back the power I had
I'm reclaiming bits of me
I'm rebuilding what once was
But this time, I'll build something stronger
I'm taking back the command I had
I'm claiming what has always been mine
I'm stacking up the confidence I had
But this time, I'll not give them a chance to have me doubt
For what made me unique was my resilience
The same resilience that got me standing
The same resilience that even when I was down
I kept moving cause I had to reach my destination
I'm taking back the determination I had
I'm remaking it to fit in this new shell
I'm making sure it's a great fit
But this time, I'll make it to my specifications
I'm taking back the strength I had
I'm recreating the battles I faced
I'm going through the storm to piece it all back
But this time, I'll stay longer in the storm so that I learn
For what made me great has waned
But I'm going back and changing that
The same person that walked into the storm
Is the same person i'm going after, cause I'm taking control
