Looking back at the shadows in the rearview
The heavy roads of addiction that I walked through
I own the mistakes that I made in the dark
But they couldn't break the beat of my heart
Every stumble was a lesson in grace
Leading me back to a beautiful place
ChorusOh, Heather, you are a survivor
Walking out of the fire, reaching higher
Patient and wise, strong and free
Finally the person I was meant to be
I am capable, I am awake
Celebrating every breath I take
Verse 2I hold the moments with my daughters so close
Through the hardest of days, they're the anchor I chose
All the time with my family, the laughter and tears
Washing away all the pain of those years
I'm standing right here, I'm fully alive
Watching the love in my spirit revive
ChorusOh, Heather, you are a survivor
Walking out of the fire, reaching higher
Patient and wise, strong and free
Finally the person I was meant to be
I am capable, I am awake
Celebrating every breath I take
BridgeI feel the happiness rushing right in
Motivated now, let the good days begin
I forgive the past, I'm letting it go
I want to celebrate the healing I know
Yeah, I'm stepping out into the light of the sun
Look at the woman that I have become
Final Chorus'Cause Heather, you are a survivor
Walking out of the fire, reaching higher
Patient and wise, strong and free
Finally the person I was meant to be
I am capable, happy, and awake
Celebrating every breath I take
Yeah, I'm celebrating every step I make
