Ashes of the Phoenix

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I’m screaming in the shadows, buried under time,
A phantom of the person I was, lost in the grime.
Born from silence, raised in the dark,
Choking on the ashes that smothered my spark.

The mirror cuts deep, it never shows my face,
A stranger in my skin, displaced in my space.
I’m holding all the magic in one final touch,
Letting my past self go—it’s almost too much.

[Pre-Chorus]
Resting hurts, but running’s turned me cold,
Every step feels heavy, every breath feels sold.

[Chorus]
Teeth sharp, my demons are hunting,
Shadows stalk me, but I’ll give them nothing.
Kneeling down, I pull from the flame,
This is the fight that will carry my name.
Let their sins burn deep in the fire within,
I’ll rise from the ashes where the healing begins.

[Verse 2]
The voices in my head don’t quiet, they don’t fade,
Every whisper’s a weapon, every memory’s a blade.
But I’ve learned the truth from the weight of this fight—
You can’t chase the light if you don’t face the night.

The ghosts of my past keep haunting my veins,
Tangled in their stories, but I’ve broken the chains.
I’m no longer the shell they carved me to be,
I’m breaking through the cracks, setting shadows free.

[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve walked through fire with nowhere to go,
But even the flames can’t bury my soul.

[Chorus]
Teeth sharp, my demons are hunting,
Shadows stalk me, but I’ll give them nothing.
Kneeling down, I pull from the flame,
This is the fight that will carry my name.
Let their sins burn deep in the fire within,
I’ll rise from the ashes where the healing begins.

[Bridge] (Quiet, reflective)
I’ve kissed the void, I’ve tasted despair,
Felt the weight of the world when no one cared.
But even in silence, even in pain,
The seed of a new life will grow from the rain.

(Builds in intensity)
You tried to bury me, drown me in sin,
But the darker the shadow, the brighter I’ve been.
Every scar, every scream, every cut on my skin,
Is a map of the battles I’ve fought to begin.

[Breakdown] (Explosive, high-energy)
Teeth sharp, my demons strike first,
But I’ve learned to turn hunger into thirst.
Shadows circling, I take the fight now,
Kneeling no more—I tear them down.
This is my story, this is my rage,
Born from the silence, I’m breaking the cage.

[Final Chorus]
Teeth sharp, my demons are hunting,
Shadows stalk me, but I’ll give them nothing.
Kneeling down, I rise from the flame,
This is the fight that will carry my name.
Let their sins burn deep in the fire within,
I’ll rise from the ashes where the healing begins.

[Outro] (Soft, defiant)
Letting my past self go, until we meet again,
The silence is broken, reborn from my pain.
I’ll carry the light that grows from my scars,
Born from the shadows,
