Rising from the Ashes

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But when I became older, I've lost my faith along the way
As a victim of society I witnessed tons of pain
They wanted to changed me over and over again
Now I'm rising from the ashes
Ridin' on the storm
I can go the distance and keep my spirit warm
Don't try to hold me back
Don't underestimate me
Don't try to break my neck
Now I'm rising from the ashes
Rising from the ashes
I'm rising from the ashes I'm
Rising from the ashes
They tried to feed me with some knowledge they prepared
If you fit into the system you don't need to be scared
But if you are different, they will try to sort you out
Never give in to this madness
Be yourself and stay proud
Now I'm rising from the ashes
Ridin' on the storm
I can go the distance and keep my spirit warm
Don't you dare to stop me
Don't try to hold me back
Don't underestimate me
Don't try to break my neck
Now I'm rising from the ashes
I'm rising from the ashes
Ridin' on the storm
I can go the distance, keep my spirit warm
Don't you dare to stop me
Don't try to hold me back
Don't underestimate me
Don't try to break my neck
Now I'm rising from the ashes
Ridin' on the storm
I can go the distance and keep my spirit warm
Don't you dare to stop me
Don't try to hold me back
Don't underestimate me
Don't try to break my neck
Rising from the ashes
Rising from the ashes
Ridin' on the storm
Yeah!
