[Verse]
Phoenix is grinding hard
Sparks in his veins
Barely alive
But he feels no pain
The city hums
It knows his name
[Prechorus]
Neon lights trace his skin
Where does his path end or begin
[Chorus]
He smiles
He smiles
He thinks of the future
A world reborn in the fire’s rupture
He smiles
He smiles
The ashes are gold
A heart that burns will never grow cold
[Verse 2]
Every shadow hides a piece of his past
Time moves slow
But he's running fast
Through the haze
He finds the cast
[Prechorus]
Broken wings still learn to fly
He’ll rise again
He won’t ask why
[Chorus]
He smiles
He smiles
He thinks of the future
A world reborn in the fire’s rupture
He smiles
He smiles
The ashes are gold
A heart that burns will never grow cold
