Rise of the Swan - Rising From the Pain

Verse 1 Once an ugly duckling, outcast and alone, Different from the others, in a world unknown, Mocked and rejected, felt like he was thrown, But deep inside, a fire brightly shone. Chorus Ugly duckling, rising from the pain, From the stormy weather, and the pouring rain, One day you'll fly, spread your wings so wide, From the darkest moments, to the other side. Verse 2 Feathers gray and tattered, didn't fit the mold, Everywhere he went, the story was told, "You're not one of us, you’re out in the cold," But a heart of gold, brave and bold. Bridge Days turned to nights, seasons changed, In the mirror, his reflection rearranged, From the ugly duckling, to a swan so pure, Now the world sees what he had to endure. Chorus Ugly duckling, rising from the pain, From the stormy weather, and the pouring rain, One day you'll fly, spread your wings so wide, From the darkest moments, to the other side. Verse 3 Embrace your journey, every scar and tear, From the depths of sorrow, to the skies so clear, Now you're soaring high, leaving behind the fear, The ugly duckling's gone, the swan is here. Breakdown Ugly duckling, story of rebirth, From the shadows, showing your true worth, Rise from the ashes, let the world see, From the pain and the struggle, you are free. Chorus Ugly duckling, rising from the pain, From the stormy weather, and the pouring rain, One day you'll fly, spread your wings so wide, From the darkest moments, to the other side. Outro From the pond to the sky, look at you now, No longer bound, take your final bow, Life's a journey, from start to end, The ugly duckling's tale, our hearts you mend.
