lyrics
All of my life, I always knew I had to dream
I dreamt that I would fly away from here
When I left home, I knew I could do anything
But there were times I fought just to survive
Just fourteen years and glad to be alive
As time went on, I was a traveler on my own
An endless search in hope to find a home
Then I was lost, just praying to be found
I had to help myself up off the ground
I grew some wings and turned it all around
Cause I am a phoenix
Comin’ out of the ashes
And I’ll rise
Like a fire bird in the night
I’ll rise above it all
I’ll ride, like a Valkyrie into battle
With all of my love
Now I am grown, no longer searching for my home
I found it in myself some time ago
I’ve travelled so far, and put it all behind me
Forgiven those who tried to break my wings
And proven that I can do anything
Cause I am a phoenix
Comin’ out of the ashes
And I’ll rise
Like a fire bird in the night
I’ll rise above it all
I’ll ride, like a Valkyrie into battle
With all of my love…
Cause I am a phoenix
Comin’ out of the ashes
And I’ll rise
Like a fire bird in the night
I’ll rise above it all
Yes, I’ll rise
Like a fire bird in the night
I’ll rise above it all
I’ll ride, like a Valkyrie into battle
With all of my love
With all of my love
Cause I am a phoenix
Comin’ out of the ashes
