[Verse 1] I crawled through the cinder With soot in my teeth The house was a graveyard The night ate my name I found a red ember Under broken boards Held it in my palm Till it learned my pulse [Pre-Chorus] Hear that crack in the dark That's me coming back Skin made of sparks now Bone turned to black I bite down on ruin And spit out gold I was buried alive Now I won't stay cold [Chorus] I rise from the ashes Rise from the ashes You can't keep me down I rise from the ashes Rise from the ashes Burning through the ground (ashes) (ashes) [Verse 2] They threw their cold words Like stones at my back Called me a shadow Called me a crack But I wore every wound Like a crown of wire Fed on the fallout And walked through the fire [Pre-Chorus] Hear that crack in the dark That's me coming back Skin made of sparks now Bone turned to black I bite down on ruin And spit out gold I was buried alive Now I won't stay cold [Chorus] I rise from the ashes Rise from the ashes You can't keep me down I rise from the ashes Rise from the ashes Burning through the ground (ashes) (ashes) [Bridge] Let the whole sky split Let the red rain fall I have made my home In the heart of the storm No more ash in my lungs No more chains on my throat I am the blaze you made I am the thing you woke [Final Chorus] I rise from the ashes Rise from the ashes You can't keep me down I rise from the ashes Rise from the ashes Burning through the ground I rise from the ashes Rise from the ashes Hear me shake this town I rise from the ashes Rise from the ashes I wear the crown now (ashes) (ashes)
