Verse 1
I was dust on the ground, a whisper in the wind
Every step I took felt like I couldn't win
But there's a fire that sleeps inside the bone
And it woke up the night I felt alone
Now the embers glow, a flicker in the dark
I can hear my heartbeat like a rising spark
Pre-Chorus
And they said I'd never make it through the flame (make it through the flame)
But I'm not the same, no, I'm not the same
Every scar's a story, (story) every tear's a name
And I'm writing my own chapter, not a single page of shame
Chorus
I'm a phenix rising, (RISING) watch me burn and fly
From the ashes of the past, I'm reaching for the sky
I'm a phenix rising, (RISING) you can't keep me down
I'm the comeback that they never saw, the new sound in this town
Oh-oh-oh, phenix rising, oh-oh-oh, I'm alive
Oh-oh-oh, phenix rising, watch me thrive
Verse 2
They tried to clip my wings, they tried to steal my light
But every time I fall, I come back twice as bright
I've been through the valley, walked through the rain
Every broken piece just made me whole again
Now I'm standing in the spotlight, no more hiding in the shade
This is my rebirth, and I'm not afraid
Pre-Chorus
And they said I'd never make it through the flame
But I'm not the same, no, I'm not the same
Every scar's a story, every tear's a name
And I'm writing my own chapter, not a single page of shame
Chorus
I'm a phenix rising, (RISING) watch me burn and fly
From the ashes of the past, I'm reaching for the sky
I'm a phenix rising, (RISING) you can't keep me down
I'm the comeback that they never saw, the new sound in this town
Oh-oh-oh, phenix rising, oh-oh-oh, I'm alive
Oh-oh-oh, phenix rising, watch me thrive
Bridge
Let the fire take me higher, let the world see what I am
I'm not just a survivor, I'm a revolution plan
Every doubt that ever broke me, every lie that tried to chain
Is the fuel that feeds the glory, the power in my veins
This is not a second chance, this is a brand-new start
I'm the beat inside the silence, I'm the art inside the heart
Final Chorus [high notes in this section for closing]
I'm a phenix rising, (RISING!!) watch me burn and fly
From the ashes of the past, I'm reaching for the sky
I'm a phenix rising, (RISING!!) you can't keep me down
I'm the comeback that they never saw, the new sound in this town
Oh-oh-oh, phenix rising, oh-oh-oh, I'm alive
Oh-oh-oh, phenix rising, watch me thrive
(Yeah, I'm rising, rising, rising)
Phenix rising, I'm alive
(Oh-oh-oh, phenix rising)
Now Watch me thrive.
