[Verse 1]
They bent you low
Made dust of your name
Left a bruise in the mirror
Tried to teach you shame
You wore the rain
Like iron on skin
Still you stood in the wreckage
Still you let it in
[Pre-Chorus]
No, you didn't fold
No, you didn't fade
You kept a cold hard spark
Inside the pain
They pulled at your bones
You pulled through the dark
Now every scar on you
Is a loaded mark
[Chorus]
You rise, you rise
Out of the fire
You rise, you rise
Meaner, higher
Ashes in your hair
But you won't kneel there
You rise, you rise
You rise again
[Verse 2]
They counted your losses
Like they owned the score
But you kept a small storm
Behind the door
You learned how to bite
With a smile that burns
Every crack in your armor
Is a lesson learned
[Pre-Chorus]
No, you didn't break
No, you didn't bow
You turned the blackest night
Into a vow
They called you done
They called you weak
But your pulse came back
With a sharper beat
[Chorus]
You rise, you rise
Out of the fire
You rise, you rise
Meaner, higher
Ashes in your hair
But you won't kneel there
You rise, you rise
You rise again
[Bridge]
Let them watch the glow
On the broken floor
Let them hear your name
Like a closing door
You were hammered down
Still you learned to shine
A crown of scorched gold
On a savage spine
[Final Chorus]
You rise, you rise
Out of the fire
You rise, you rise
Meaner, higher
Ashes in your hair
But you won't kneel there
You rise, you rise
You rise again
You rise, you rise
Nothing can contain
You rise, you rise
Born out of the flame
