[Verse 1]
You can't chain what’s already burned
You can kill me
But not this nerve
Scars on my chest like crooked roads
Every step a loaded oath
[Pre-Chorus]
You took my heart
Left the wires exposed
Thought I'd stay
In the grave you chose
[Chorus]
From ashes I rise
From ashes I rise (rise, rise)
You buried me deep
But I chew through the dirt
Turn all of this pain into something that hurts
From ashes I rise
From ashes I rise
[Verse 2]
Teeth in the dust
But I still grin
Hear the crack as the world caves in
You want me small
On my knees
I tear my name in your concrete
[Pre-Chorus]
You took my heart
But it still hits back
Every beat
Is a counter-attack
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
You can't chain what was never yours
You can't chain what was never yours
[crescendo
Screamed backing]
You can kill this flesh
But the fire is sworn
[guitar solo]
[Chorus]
[Outro]
From ashes I rise
From ashes I—[distorted scream
Band cuts]
Silence
Then one last chord
Ringing wide
