Rise And Shine
Miguel Angel Oroyo Perez
I fell but here I stand
I lost but learned to understand
I wept but found my way to heal
Today, I'm born again
Friends who walked away
Left wounds along their path
But through this journey's trials
I found what truth can mean
Family's not just blood
It's who dries your tears
Who quietly stands beside you
Helping you to grow
Love that burned like fire
Slowly turned to ash
Promises dissolved in air
How hard it was to see
But now my heart
Though marked with scars
Knows that real love
Isn't born from duty
Rise up and shine
Life's too brief
To live it halfway
What doesn't break you
Makes you wiser
Stronger, more complete
Rise up and shine
Today's your moment
The world awaits your vision
Stumbles aren't failures
They're hidden stepping stones
Every darkest night
Ends with breaking dawn
Those who fall and rise again
Have stories worth their weight
Those who've never bled
Never knew what victory meant
Today I face my reflection
No longer seeking approval
My scars are treasures now
My fear drives me forward
Because at journey's end
The time it took won't matter
But how each wound you bore
Gave you the strength to dare
And if I fall again today
Tomorrow I'll rise once more
