[Verse 1] The sky turns iron-gold Over broken ground I stood where the fire ate Everything I found Ash on my knuckles Blood in the dirt I learned the hard way How the broken still work [Pre-Chorus] One breath Then another I hear it under the skin One spark Then another I let the ruin begin [Chorus] I rise from the ashes I rise from the ash (raise me up) I rise from the ashes I rise and I last I rise from the ashes I rise from the flame (no more chains) I rise from the ashes And I wear my name [Verse 2] Stone in my throat Heat in my chest I dragged my shadow Out of the wreck The night tried to keep me Nail me down But I made a throne From the charred-out ground [Pre-Chorus] One breath Then another I hear it under the skin One spark Then another I let the ruin begin [Chorus] I rise from the ashes I rise from the ash (raise me up) I rise from the ashes I rise and I last I rise from the ashes I rise from the flame (no more chains) I rise from the ashes And I wear my name [Bridge] Let the sky go black Let the whole world shake I was forged in loss I was made awake Every scar a map Every wound a key What burned me down Could not bury me [Final Chorus] I rise from the ashes I rise from the ash (raise me up) I rise from the ashes I rise and I last I rise from the ashes I rise from the flame (no more chains) I rise from the ashes And I wear my name I rise from the ashes Still standing here (standing here) I rise from the ashes And the end turns clear
