Ashes Unlocked

Lyrics

Verse 1
[M] They split the ground
[F] With easy lies
[M] Drew hard lines
[F] In our eyes
[M] Turned neighbor to weapon
[F] Turned truth to rust
[M] But under the rubble
[F] Something still lives in us

Pre-Chorus
[M] Hear that low pulse
[F] Under the ash
[M] Hands in the dirt
[F] We’re coming back
[M] They sealed the doors
[F] Buried the key
[M] We bite through stone
[F] And break free

Chorus
[M] Stand up, rise up
[F] From the ashes
[M] Stand up, rise up
[F] We are the damage
[M] Stand up, rise up
[F] Build the ruins back
[M] Stand up, rise up
[F] Take what they hid, take it back

Verse 2
[F] They locked our names
[M] In iron rooms
[F] Hid the maps
[M] In sealed-up tombs
[F] Took the gold from the hands
[M] Took the fire from the square
[F] But we learned their silence
[M] And found the roots down there

Pre-Chorus
[M] Hear that low pulse
[F] Under the ash
[M] Hands in the dirt
[F] We’re coming back
[M] They sealed the doors
[F] Buried the key
[M] We bite through stone
[F] And break free

Chorus
[M] Stand up, rise up
[F] From the ashes
[M] Stand up, rise up
[F] We are the damage
[M] Stand up, rise up
[F] Build the ruins back
[M] Stand up, rise up
[F] Take what they hid, take it back

Bridge
[F] Let the old walls shake
[M] Let the false kings crawl
[F] We were never gone
[M] We were under it all
[F] In the broken seed
[M] In the cracked black earth
[F] Every lost thing wakes
[M] When we claim our worth

Breakdown
[M] One world
[F] One wound
[M] One roar
[F] One crew
[M] They buried us deep
[F] We bloom through
[M] From ruin
[F] We move

Final Chorus
[M] Stand up, rise up
[F] From the ashes
[M] Stand up, rise up
[F] We are the damage
[M] Stand up, rise up
[F] Build the ruins back
[M] Stand up, rise up
[F] Take what they hid, take it back
[M] Stand up, rise up
[F] No more divided
[M] Stand up, rise up
[F] We make the ending
[M] Stand up, rise up
[F] We unlock the buried
[M] Stand up, rise up
[F] And the whole world rises with us
