I’ve burned a thousand times before
Ashes rising from the floor
They watched me fall, they sang my end
But every flame is where I begin
Cut me down, I’ll rise in smoke
I’m not the chain, I am the stroke
Of fire dancing in the sky
I never lived to simply die
Strike me, break me, tear me down
You’ll just crown me with a crown
I am the phoenix in the flame
Born from fire, not from shame
Every death just makes me real
Every scar a blade I wield
You can bury me in night
But I will rise and burn so bright
You’ll remember my desire
I was born… born from fire
They fear the ones who never fade
Who turn their wounds into a blade
I wear my ashes like a skin
A monument to where I’ve been
You can’t kill what won’t stay gone
I’m the dusk that births the dawn
I am the phoenix in the flame
Born from fire, not from shame
Every death just makes me real
Every scar a blade I wield
You can bury me in night
But I will rise and burn so bright
You’ll remember my desire
I was born… born from fire
Let it all collapse again
From the ruins, I ascend
Even when the light is torn
That’s the hour I’m reborn
I am the phoenix in the flame
You’ll never break, you’ll never claim
Every fall becomes my rise
Every truth behind the lies
You can curse me, you can try
But I don’t bleed — I multiply
I’m the echo, I’m the choir
I was born…
Born from fire
