Lyrics (translation)
[Verse 1]
The tide pulls me under, it’s drowning my soul The world’s out to break me, but I won’t let go Born from the dust, I’m carved in the storm I’ll fight through the waves, I’ll rise and transform
[Pre-Chorus]
The current’s against me, but I’ll never sway My heart’s still beating, I’ll carve my own way
[Chorus]
Against the tide, I’ll rise, I’ll break through the storm From the dust I’m forged, in the fire reborn No fate can bind me, no wave can consume I’m the spark in the dark, I’ll shatter the gloom
[Verse 2]
The odds stack against me, the skies turn to gray But I’m tearing through chaos, I won’t fade away Each scar’s a defiance, each wound fuels my fight I’m the rebel in the dust, I’m the dawn in the night
[Pre-Chorus]
The current’s against me, but I’ll never sway My heart’s still beating, I’ll carve my own way
[Chorus]
Against the tide, I’ll rise, I’ll break through the storm From the dust I’m forged, in the fire reborn No fate can bind me, no wave can consume I’m the spark in the dark, I’ll shatter the gloom
[Verse 3]
They said I’d drown, that the tide’s too strong But I’m building my will, I’ll prove them all wrong Each step through the flood, I’m claiming my ground I’m the king of my fate, in the ashes I’m crowned
[Pre-Chorus]
The current’s against me, but I’ll never sway My heart’s still beating, I’ll carve my own way
[Chorus]
Against the tide, I’ll rise, I’ll break through the storm From the dust I’m forged, in the fire reborn No fate can bind me, no wave can consume I’m the spark in the dark, I’ll shatter the gloom
[Bridge]
No tide can hold me, no fate can restrain I’m the fire in the flood, I’m the roar in the rain I’ll tear through the heavens, I’ll rewrite the stars This fight is my own, I’ll bear all the scars
[Final Chorus]
Against the tide, I’ll rise, I’ll break through the storm From the dust I’m forged, in the fire reborn No fate can bind me, no wave can consume I’m the spark in the dark, I’ll shatter the gloom
[Outro]
From the dust I was born, through the tide I endure My fire’s eternal, my spirit is pure
