"Setting Myself Free"

It's been a long time trying to keep my head up
I won't let the tears fog up my mind
I'm going to stand up from the ground
I don't fear my trials by fire

I'm setting myself free
If you'll help me now
I'm not just the victim in this story
The sky's too high for me to reach for you
I feel alive just living day by day now

I will hold my head high when they think I am gone
So I will never show any fear of living through the fire
I will set myself free
They're gonna break me down but I'll defeat them

I have found the little place in my head
Where I go when the darkness creeps in
And every day there just might be less to find

And you'll be close by my side
I am setting myself free from the worries of life
I will survive through the challenges that life will give me.
