Rise in Black (versión 2)

Verse

Rust on the fence where I first found my way

Bare feet in dust where the sun used to play

Every crack and every rusted seam is a map of what's real to me

I don't need a compass or a star to light up my path

The dark is my direction, it's where I know who I am

Pre-Chorus

Something inside me starts to move like the tide

A current rising that only this darkness can provide

I feel it building, building in every vein

It's not fear or regret, it's just this one thing left to gain

The light is behind us, but I don't need to see it yet

This blackness has become my sky, and I'm ready to be set free

Chorus

Rise up from the ash where you used to lie

Burn away the shadows that stole your light from the sky

Stand on the edge of this reckoning, let it come like a storm

In this dark you're not lost, you are born

Verse 2

Gravel on my knees as I search for what's left behind

A name or a memory but nothing concrete can be found

The wind carries a thousand ghosts but they don't belong to me

I've let them all go now and it feels like being set free

Every step up this hill is a lie I'm choosing not to tell

This fire inside me, it's the one truth that will never fall

So raise your hands to the dark and let it light you up from the core

In here is where I've been searching all along for what I adore

Pre-Chorus

Something inside me starts to move like the tide

A current rising that only this darkness can provide

I feel it building, building in every vein

It's not fear or regret, it's just this one thing left to gain

The light is behind us, but I don't need to see it yet

This blackness has become my sky, and I'm ready to be set free

Chorus

Rise up from the ash where you used to lie

Burn away the shadows that stole your light from the sky

Stand on the edge of this reckoning, let it come like a storm

In this dark you're not lost, you are born

Bridge

Not gone, just hidden under all that's been left behind

Every ember is a spark waiting to shine

I'm done with the shadows, I won't let them remain

I'll take the ash and turn it into gold again

Chorus

Rise up from the ash where you used to lie

Burn away the shadows that stole your light from the sky

Stand on the edge of this reckoning, let it come like a storm

In this dark you're not lost, you are born
