Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Boiling in my chest Every word a blade I taste I used to burn this bridge Just to watch your faces fade Biting down on rage Tongue turned into a cage Knuckles white But still I don’t have to be this way [Pre-Chorus] I am not my temper I am not your ghost Every time I clench my teeth I feel the fracture close [Chorus] I am born from my own ashes (from my own ashes) Tearing out the hate I used to breathe Learning how to stand here Softer Stronger than the fire underneath Hold the storm inside my ribs Until it turns to light I can release I am born from my own ashes And this time I rise for me [Verse 2] Staring down the mirror Stranger But I know those eyes Memories like metal shards Still I’m not obliged to bleed Teaching my hands to open Teaching my heart to stay I can feel a quiet laugh Where the poison used to play [Pre-Chorus] I am not your pity I am not your sin Every breath a brick I lay On a life I choose to live [Chorus] I am born from my own ashes (yeah) Tearing out the hate I used to breathe Learning how to stand here Softer Stronger than the fire underneath Hold the storm inside my ribs Until it turns to light I can release I am born from my own ashes And this time I rise for me [Bridge] [Music drops to tense Sparse guitars] (SCREAM) I will not be your target I will not eat your rot I will not drown in anger Just to prove I haven’t lost Let the bitterness go empty Let resentment starve and starve I am carving out a future On the ruins of who we were [Chorus] I am born from my own ashes (from my own ashes) Every scar a map that sets me free Learning how to speak with gentleness To the monster that once spoke for me Hold the storm inside my ribs Feel it breaking open into peace I am born from my own ashes And this time I rise as me
