Rise From Ruin

Rain on the concrete,

ash in the wind

Left with the ruins of where I had been

No hands to hold,

no loyalty kept

I counted the scars while the rest of them slept

But dust doesn't bleed,

and stone doesn't break

I took every blow that a human could take

Quietly building,

one brick at a time

Now look at this mountain I'm destined to climb

Out of the wreckage,

I rise alone

No crown was given,

I carved my own throne

They wanted me broken,

they wanted me dead

Now I am the storm that is raging ahead (yeah)

Isolated, disciplined, focused and cold

Trading the silver

for weight of the gold

I didn't need favors,

I didn't need friends I paved my own path where the highway

ends

But dust doesn't bleed,

and stone doesn't break

I took every blow that a human could take

Quietly building,

one brick at a time

Now look at this mountain I'm destined to climb

Out of the wreckage,

I rise alone

No crown was given,

I carved my own throne They wanted me broken,

they wanted me dead

Now I am the storm that is raging ahead (yeah)

I carved my own throne (alone)
