Lyrics

[Intro]

(Fading rain...
A distant violin...
Heartbeat...)

[Verse 1]

Every road I trusted cracked beneath my feet
Every promise burned down to concrete
I dragged my failures like a chain
Told myself I liked the weight

The sky came down in pieces, slow
On the ones too tired to move
But something underneath the wreck
Kept breathing when it had no proof

[Pre-Chorus]

If tonight's the last thing that I say
Let it be the reason that I stayed
I never stopped...
I never ran...

[Chorus]

I rise—
Like a phoenix in the rain
Take the wreckage that they left me
And I build it into flame

I won't disappear
I won't fade away
Every storm that came to break me
Only showed me I could take it

I'm alive...
I'm alive...

[Build]

(Solo violin rising...
faster...
faster...)

Rise...

(Drum roll — riser — silence)

[Drop]

(Female vocal chops)

Rise...
Rise...

Violin Lead

Heavy melodic dubstep drop

Electric guitar harmony

[Verse 2]

Yeah the dark still learns my name
But it never held the reins
Every summit I have known
Started buried in the cold

The weight became the frame I wear
The quiet taught me how to hear
Every ending fed a start
Every fracture found the heart

[Bridge]

When the world says
"You're too far gone"

I'll answer...

"Watch me."

(Silence)

[Final Chorus]

I rise—
Higher than I've ever stood
Took the pieces they abandoned
Made them mean something for good

Every scar
Every tear
Every war
Dragged me here

Not the fire
Not the light—
Just a man who chose to fight

I'm alive tonight...

[Outro]

(Soft violin)

The rain still falls...

But now...

I let it.
