From the ashes I rise

Experience made me wise

I’ve been through the fire

Down to the wire

As a new reality takes hold

My story will be told

I found a source of strength

In talking with God at length

From the ashes I rise

It should come as no surprise

God showed me the way

As I prayed every day

He made it clear

That my destiny is near

I’ve come this far

By reaching for a star

From the ashes I rise

The pain I’ll never forget

The process I don’t regret

It restored my soul

It made me whole

That was God’s plan

I saw it in the palm of His hand

Overcoming an obstacle

Isn’t entirely impossible

I’ll finish my race

At my own pace

Cause that’s wise

For from the ashes I rise
