Sleeping, resting, dormant, covered in ashes The heat turns to cold and colds fell on the lashes No air or space to move, I forgot how to breathe But I'm sitting here in silence covered in these black leaves My skin feels different, my body feels light But my heart is still pumping and something grips my soul tight My mind is still and my head is calm My eyes feel refreshed, the dust is in my palms It's been months since they left, have they truly gone Have I truly been alone for that fucking long It's slowly, it comes back, aspects of my character and soul Kindness I've learned and new passions foretold Mentally no longer weak cause death was the answer Physically the same, time to get rid of this cancer Emotionally I look deeper, an endless well Spiritually a different man, though you wouldn't be able to tell I was an outcast, always picked last Until the talent came now look at the contrast Like day and night, the world is in my hands So don't waste my time like hourglass sand And don't be surprised when these dreamers start to rise We chasing these goals and we chasing the prize So keep a lookout on your phone and watch with your eyes Cause this shit right here just might be televised This is the dark I've accepted, the light that lied to me I'm both working as one so that I can see The veil is lifted and I regain feeling The cold feels nice too, getting heat from the ceiling I walk outside to feel the sun on me The cool breeze of the wind, sound of rustling leaves Solitude and it's silence, it reminded me of hell But the suffering stopped the pain is on the table to sell The dust starts to fall, I can move my hands Arms, legs, and body I feel like they released from bands I rub my eyes, wipe my face, look onto my body It's dark and ash covered, is this really me I'm seeing life again, I feel as if I'm one I don't feel disconnected, I feel like I can have fun I journey back to life to tell you what I've been through Tell you the story of the phoenix and how it could happen to you I was an outcast, always picked last Until the talent came now look at the contrast Like day and night, the world is in my hands So don't waste my time like hourglass sand And don't be surprised when these dreamers start to rise We chasing these goals and we chasing the prize So keep a lookout on your phone and watch with your eyes Cause this shit right here just might be televised
