Rose From Concrete

I came up through the cracks where the cold wind blew

Lit the rose and the stones ′til I made it through

You said I wouldn't bloom, said I′d never see light

But I learned how to stretch in the dark of night

I'm the rose that grew from honey

Still shining through

Heart on my sleeve, every scar made me true

I'm the rose that grew from concrete, soft but strong

From the pressure and the pain, I was built to belong

Every drop of hurt turned into my song

Every bruise on my spirit made my roots grow strong

I move with the rhythm, I glide with grace

Falsetto in the air, I lift up the space

I'm the rose that grew from concrete

Still shining through

Heart on my sleeve, every scar may need truth

I'm the rose that grew from concrete, soft but strong

From the pressure and the pain, I was built to belong

Roaming in the sunlight

No longer unseen

A rose from the concrete

Living my dream
