Phoenix from the Flames

(Intro – heavy guitar riff, drums thunder in, sudden drop, vocals alone start)

(Verse 1)

From the ashes, a new day’s born,

Every chain I wore is torn.

I was broken, lost in the fight,

Now I rise into the light.

(Pre-Chorus – tension builds)

The shadows scream, but I won’t hear,

My heart’s on fire, it’s burning clear!

(Chorus – explosive, stadium feel)

Like a Phoenix from the flames,

I will rise and call my name!

Nothing left can hold me down,

I burn to take back my crown!

Ooooh – I burn, I burn!

Ooooh – I live again, yeah!

(Verse 2 – heavier, could use screams/growls)

They tried to drag me to the ground,

But my fire tears the silence down.

The chains are shattered, the ice is gone,

I’ll set this world alight at dawn!

(Pre-Chorus – full power)

The night will fade, the storm will roar,

I’ll take it all, I’ll ask for more!

(Chorus – bigger, layered vocals, crowd energy)

Like a Phoenix from the flames,

I will rise and call my name!

Nothing left can hold me down,

I burn to take back my crown!

Ooooh – I burn, I burn!

Ooooh – I live again, yeah!

(Bridge – slow, epic, then explodes)

I fall… (crowd shouts: I fall!)

But I rise again!

I scream… (crowd shouts: I scream!)

And the sky will hear my name!

I burn – ‘til my soul is free forever!

I live – in the fire’s endless fever!

(Final Chorus – double, anthem, huge ending)

Like a Phoenix from the flames,

I will rise and call my name!

Nothing left can hold me down,

I burn to take back my crown!

Ooooh – I burn, I burn!

Ooooh – I live again, yeah!

(Outro – guitars raging, drums pounding, final scream: “PHOENIX!” – cut off with one crushing chord)
