The Phoenix (Rising Anthem)
[Intro: Soft Violin & Ethereal Choral Swell]
(Ash to beauty, dust to gold)
(Yeah, uh-huh... breathe in the new atmosphere)
(I felt the burn, but I didn't stay down, no)
(Higher... rise higher, feel the frequency change)
Never had expectations that needed to be done.
(No set goals, uh-huh, just existing)
No motivation beneath the sun.
(Just waiting for the light to hit, waiting for the shift)
(Wait for it... wait for the spark, wait for the breakthrough)
[Verse 1: Introspective, Close-Mic Vocals]
They thought they saw the end in the smoke and the gray
Buried all the promises, threw them away
(Threw them away, uh, swept 'em under the rug)
I sat in the ruins, picking up the pieces of me
A map of the scars is all they could see
(But they didn't know the vision... they didn't know the plan)
Every ember whispers, every flame tells a lie
They said I’d wither, they said I’d die
(But they didn't see the light... didn't see the fire inside)
But fire is just a lesson in how to purify
(Purify, purify, yeah, burn off the old!)
[Pre-Chorus: Building Tension, Orchestral Strings Rise, Binaural Beat Pulses]
The heat didn’t kill me, it refined the soul
(Mmm, refined it, yeah, burning it all away, layer by layer)
I’m trading the ashes for a crown of control
(Crown of control, uh, step into the power, reclaim it)
Listen for the sound of the wings taking flight!
(It's happening, it's unfolding, yeah! Can you hear the rustle?)
[Beat Drop: Heavy 808 Sub-Bass, Sharp Trap Snare, Orchestral Hit]
[Chorus: Explosive Belted Vocals & Repeating Hook]
Like a Phoenix!
(Rise up, rise up! Higher than before, reaching for the stars!)
Out of the fire, I’m changing the story!
(Watch me change it, yeah! My testimony is written in light!)
Nothing but grace in the light of the glory!
(It’s my glory, uh! I’m walking in the light, I’m walking in truth!)
I’m not the same girl I was in the dark!
(Phoenix heart! Phoenix heart! Yeah, burning bright!)
[Post-Chorus: Catchy Repeating Scat & Tongues Hook]
(Speaking in tongues: Ka-ra-ba-sha-ta! A-ni-ma! O-mi-na-te! Re-vi-va-la!)
(Skrrt-bap-bop, watch the fire stop!)
(Let it rise, let it rise, yeah, can't hold me back!)
(Uh, um, I’m alive! I’m alive! I'm breathing!)
[Verse 2: Driving Rhythm & Claps]
And one day, what will they say when I pass?
(What they gonna say? Uh... she was the one)
She built a kingdom from broken glass.
(Built it strong, built it true, shine on through the wreckage)
Leaving the ruins, leaving the past
Finding a future that’s built to last!
(Built to last, uh-huh! No looking back now, eyes on the prize!)
I see the blueprint in the palm of my hand
(Blueprint, blueprint! Divine design!)
Higher elevation, I’m claiming the land
(Claiming the land, yeah, watch me expand, watch me grow!)
There’s a power in the pause, a strength in the wait
(Strength in the wait, yeah, it’s never too late)
I’m closing the door on the hands of fate!
[Bridge: Spiritual Climax, Layered Harmonies]
(Speaking in tongues: Sha-ma-ha-ra-ta! Ho-san-na! Ri-se-a! Glo-ri-a!)
Reach out, touch the flames, they turned into wings!
(To the wings! Watch me soar, touch the heavens!)
With the rhythm of the spirit, hear the new anthem sing!
(Hear it sing, hear it sing, yeah! Sound of the breakthrough!)
I’m a vessel, I’m a temple, I am light!
(Shining light! Burning bright! In the dead of the night!)
The transformation is complete, I’m walking in the sight!
(Walking in the sight! Hallelujah! Glory! I'm home!)
[Chorus: Maximum Energy, Layered Ad-libs]
Like a Phoenix!
(Rise up, rise up! Higher than before!)
Out of the fire, I’m changing the story!
(Watch me change it, yeah! My testimony!)
Nothing but grace in the light of the glory!
(It’s my glory, uh! I’m walking in the light!)
I’m not the same girl I was in the dark!
(Phoenix heart! Phoenix heart! Yeah!)
[Outro: Fading Ethereal Synths & Acapella Scats]
(Shoo-wop, shoo-wop... I’m rising, I’m rising)
(Sha-ma-ha-ra-ta... I’m not the same, no, I'm new)
No more ashes.
(Mmm, uh, no more, it’s all gone, washed away)
Just flight.
(Just flight, um... yeah, soaring forever)
(Speaking in tongues: Ka-ra-ba-sha-ta... into the glory)
(Echoes: Rise... rise... rise...)
[Fade Out with Fading Binaural Pulsing]
[End]
