Ashes to Wings

Ashes to wings, I'm rewriting my name. With every breath, I'm shaking off shame. Ashes to wings, a fire reborn. From the ruins, A spirit so strong. I burned the pages of who I once was. Watched the flames dance, a fiery mass. The ashes swirl, rose to the Sky. Turned to feathers, taught me to fly. So I spread my arms, felt the wind take Hold. Whispered what was broken can turn to Gold. Ashes to wings, I'm rewriting my name. With every breath, I'm shaking off shame. Oh, Ashes to wings, a fire reborn. From the ruins, a spirit so Strong. I trace the scars on my hands so worn. Each one a map Of where I've sojourned. Now the sun arises, paints the sky with gold. And my heart beats a rhythm I once Withheld. Transformation's not pretty, it's ash and Bone. But in the crucible, I find my Own throne. Ashes to wings, I'm rewriting my name. With every breath, I'm shaking off shame. Oh, Ashes to wings, a fire reborn. From the ruins, a spirit so Strong. Oh. Ah.
