Rising from the Ashes

[Intro]
Whispered echoes in the night, shadows fall and fade
Haunted by the ghost of you, in every step I take

[Verse 1]
Lost myself in midnight's grip, drowning in despair
Every memory a weight, heavy on my air
Battling storms inside my mind, fighting through the pain
Searching for a light, to rise above the rain

[Pre-Chorus]
But somewhere deep within, a spark begins to glow
A whisper telling me, I’ve still got hope to show

[Chorus]
Rising from the ashes, breaking through the night
Fighting depression’s hold, stepping into the light
Hate may have tried to keep me down, but I’ve found my way
Coming back stronger, reclaiming a brand new day

[Verse 2]
Tears fell like rain, washing all the hurt away
Learning to forgive myself, for every restless day
Shadows start to fade, as courage takes its place
Walking out of darkness, into a hopeful space

[Pre-Chorus]
There’s a fire inside, that no cold can contain
A brand new chapter begins, after all the pain

[Chorus]
Rising from the ashes, breaking through the night
Fighting depression’s hold, stepping into the light
Hate may have tried to keep me down, but I’ve found my way
Coming back stronger, reclaiming a brand new day

[Bridge]
If I can survive the storm, then so can you
Hold on to the hope, let it carry you through
Every scar’s a story, every fall’s a lesson learned
From ashes we emerge, stronger than before

[Outro]
Now I stand with open arms, embracing what’s ahead
With love and courage guiding me, and fears shed
Losing loved ones taught me, how to fight and forgive
To find the strength inside, and truly live
