You can burn each thorn
And pick off every petal
I will get through the storm
No matter the kind of weather

I admit, you got the best of me
But it’s not over, you see
I will rise towards the sky
Like a lotus wins its fight
I will not be denied the light
Like the lotus, I will survive

I thought you had me buried
Instead, I was growing steady
The mud could not beat my soul
Which means, I finally let go

I admit, you got the best of me
But it’s not over, you see
I will rise towards the sky
Like a lotus wins its fight
I will not be denied the light
Like the lotus, I will survive

I made the past look picture perfect
But it was just one act, here’s to what’s next

I admit, you got the best of me
But it’s not over, you see
I will rise towards the sky
Like a lotus wins its fight
I will not be denied the light
Like the lotus, I will survive
