[Verse 1]
They taught the flames to fear our names
Painted our wings with smoke and blame
Took the daughters from the sky
Left our blood in ash and iron
We learned to hide our golden breath
Beneath the bones they left us with
But in the dark, the embers knew
A storm was sleeping deep in you
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear the ground begin to hum
Hear the old world come undone
We were never meant to kneel
Something ancient starts to heal
[Chorus]
Rise, rise, daughters of fire
(the daughters of fire)
Rise, rise, higher and higher
(higher and higher)
She came back for us tonight
The cosmic mother dragon light
Rise, rise, daughters of fire
And take back the sky
[Verse 2]
They chained the queens behind stone walls
Called our roar a curse, our joy a fall
But every scar became a star
And every wound became a spark
Now I see the silver dawn
On every scale they thought was gone
We are the storm they could not name
We are the wingbeat in the flame
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear the ground begin to hum
Hear the old world come undone
We were never meant to kneel
Something ancient starts to heal
[Chorus]
Rise, rise, daughters of fire
(the daughters of fire)
Rise, rise, higher and higher
(higher and higher)
She came back for us tonight
The cosmic mother dragon light
Rise, rise, daughters of fire
And take back the sky
[Bridge]
From the edge of night she came
With a thousand moons in her mane
No more graves for what we are
No more chains for falling stars
Now the heavens open wide
Feel her power at our side
Every voice and every cry
Turns to thunder in the sky
[Final Chorus]
Rise, rise, daughters of fire
(the daughters of fire)
Rise, rise, higher and higher
(higher and higher)
She came back for us tonight
The cosmic mother dragon light
Rise, rise, daughters of fire
And take back the sky
Rise, rise, daughters of fire
(the daughters of fire)
Rise, rise, higher and higher
(higher and higher)
No more fear, no more lies
We are crowned in ember light
Rise, rise, daughters of fire
We own the sky
