Built This Heart Myself |
Lyrics"Built This Heart Myself"Written by Yves Stilmant © 2025 [Verse 1A] I've been knocked down more times than I can count But I get back up, that's what I'm all about I've patched the cracks with grace and grit Still got some scars, but I'm proud of it [Verse 1B] I learned to fight without a war I found my peace, but wanted more Built from fire and from rain And I'd do it all again [Pre-Chorus] You don't break a woman made of flame She'll rise up, never be the same [Chorus] I built this heart myself Out of hurt and hope and hell Took every tear and trial And made 'em worth the while I wear my soul out loud Ain't afraid to stand my ground You can't fake what I felt 'Cause I built this heart myself [Verse 2A] I've loved and lost, but never lost my way Held on to faith when I had none to say I danced through nights I thought I'd break Made peace with every choice I make [Verse 2B] Took the long road, didn't run Found my strength in what I've done I'm still here, and I'm still strong Been a fighter all along [Pre-Chorus] (repeat) You don't break a woman made of flame She'll rise up, never be the same [Chorus] (repeat) I built this heart myself Out of hurt and hope and hell Took every tear and trial And made 'em worth the while I wear my soul out loud Ain't afraid to stand my ground You can't fake what I felt 'Cause I built this heart myself [Verse 3A] I've heard the doubt behind closed doors They don't see the strength I store But I keep rising through the smoke A quiet flame that never broke [Verse 3B] Built from truth and built to last I ain't defined by my past Every bruise became a crown And I still won't let life drag me down [Pre-Chorus] You don't break a woman made of flame She'll rise up, never be the same [Chorus - Final] I built this heart myself Out of truth and time and hell Turned the ashes into gold And let my story unfold I wear my soul out loud Ain't afraid to stand my ground You can't fake what I felt 'Cause I built this heart myself |
