**"Rise From the Ashes"** Chorus: Started with the smoke, lost in the haze, Trapped in the cycle, those were my darkest days, Now I’m rising up, breaking free from the maze, Focused on the future, leaving behind the craze. Verse 1: Used to roll up, light it up, chase the high, Living in a fog, couldn’t see the sky, Every hit, every trip, felt like I could fly, But the crash, the fall, made me question why. Weeds and pills, they had me in chains, Running from my demons, numbing the pain, In the night, in the dark, dancing in the rain, Lost my way, lost my name, going insane. Chorus: Started with the smoke, lost in the haze, Trapped in the cycle, those were my darkest days, Now I’m rising up, breaking free from the maze, Focused on the future, leaving behind the craze. Verse 2: One day, hit rock bottom, couldn’t hide, Looked in the mirror, saw the tears I cried, In the silence, in the void, felt the divide, Knew it was time to change, to turn the tide. Threw away the stash, broke the chains, Through the struggle, through the strains, Found my strength, felt the gains, In the sunlight, no more stains. Chorus: Started with the smoke, lost in the haze, Trapped in the cycle, those were my darkest days, Now I’m rising up, breaking free from the maze, Focused on the future, leaving behind the craze. Verse 3: Now I’m clean, I’m sharp, eyes on the prize, Every day, every night, aiming for the skies, In the grind, in the fight, no more lies, In this life, I’m reborn, I rise. Focused on my goals, pushing to the top, Every step, every breath, I won’t stop, In the game, in the fame, I’ll never drop, From the ashes, from the flames, I’ll pop. Chorus: Started with the smoke, lost in the haze, Trapped in the cycle, those were my darkest days, Now I’m rising up, breaking free from the maze, Focused on the future, leaving behind the craze. Verse 4: Journey from the dark, now I see the light, Through the pain, through the night, I fight, Every scar, every wound, a badge of might, In this world, in this life, I’ll write. From addiction to ambition, I’ve found my way, In the hustle, in the grind, I’ll stay, Every dawn, every new day, Building my future, come what may. Chorus: Started with the smoke, lost in the haze, Trapped in the cycle, those were my darkest days, Now I’m rising up, breaking free from the maze, Focused on the future, leaving behind the craze. Outro: From the ashes, I’ve emerged, standing tall, In this journey, I’ll never fall, Through it all, I’ll answer the call, Living life, no longer small.
