Pile of Ash

(solo)


[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, huh, yeah
Hear me now, hear me now
It's a question deep, a hunger true
Mmm, yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
Tell me, how you let that slip away?
All your sweat, all your tears, just thrown away
Ain't no easy way, no, no easy price to pay
Lost in the fire, under the burning sunray

[Pre-Chorus]
Knew I cared, you knew I cared, deep inside
Got caught in your web, can't deny
My heart, yeah, it's been tried, yeah, it's been bled
Still standing, ain't no turning back, no regret

[Chorus]
Ask yourself if you truly see
What I sacrifice, what's buried beneath
Respect is what keeps us alive
Without it, we just survive

[Bridge]
The game is rough, the path is tough
M M whispers, 'no chicken, no bluff'
Deep down hunger, it's what keeps me strong
Through fire and pain, I carry on

[Outro]
So tell me now, my love, what’s your stand?
Can you hold on, can you understand?
Only disrespect can tear me away
But I stand tall, come what may
