I may never know why I had to face this pain But, these scars let the world know That we're gonna stand again Now I'm walking through the ashes of the fire That took me down but didn't take me out It just made rise up I fought on Now we made it (yeah yeah) We made it I'm not afraid Took me down but didn't take me out I'm not afraid Now we made it (yeah yeah) We made it Sometimes my past plays tricks on my mind And I watch the tape rewinding Man I got scars and try not to show Too scared to go down that road But what if my healed wounds become signs of hope To a world that's about to give up Some young kid about to take his life Puts the knife down and stands up Call me crazy call me crazy Call me what you'd like Man if Jesus died from me Tryn' to save my life I can never play it down Even if they take me out I'ma rise up a fighter And with Him I'm walking through the ashes of the fire That took me down but didn't take me out It just made rise up I fought on Now we made it (yeah yeah) We made it I'm not afraid Took me down but didn't take me out I'm not afraid Now we made it (yeah yeah) We made it I'm falling hard in the dark Dying to be free I saw your light illuminate Every part of me I walk this road I'm torn in two like I'm weak I'm strong I fight for my life Hits me hard but I'll still live it up I'm never letting go Sometimes I be walking through it I'm falling through it Through the valley of the shadow of death I be sitting on the fence Don't know if I'm winning or sinning' But I know I can't pretend So it's time to go I found my flow I wrote this song for the kids who were down alone And now I know every time I show these scars There's a reason that you ever found a hope This pain take this hurt And every time they drag my name through the dirt I know that he uses it all for a purpose So I'm still out here putting in the work I know what it's like to be looking at a grave Then you can't find the words, you wanna break Still I know He's holding my hand And giving me the strength to say I'm not afraid I'm not afraid Took me down but didn't take me out I'm not afraid Now we made it (yeah yeah) We made it I'm not afraid Took me down but didn't take me out I'm not afraid Now we made it (yeah yeah) We made it I may never know why I had to face this pain But, these scars let the world know That we're gonna stand again
