Once was timid and small
Didn't know my own worth
Couldn't listen to any reason
Or trust my own self
A fire was lit within me
I felt the pain disappear
I see through all the smoke
That was there before
But I came out of the ashes
That was my flame
Like a lion fierce
It's in my name, in my name
Blew away the dirt to see a clean slate
I'm out of the ashes
And thank God I'm okay
Once the dust had settled and gone
I could breathe so easily
I could hear my new voice
And what it told me to be
(It said to be me)
Now I recognise my reflection
And smile from ear to ear
It's all so clear now
I can't be mistaken
That I came out of the ashes
That was my flame
Like a lion fierce
It's in my name, in my name
Blew away the dirt to see a clean slate
I'm out of the ashes
And thank God I'm okay
Okay, I'm okay
I'm out of the ashes
And thank God I'm okay
Okay, I'm okay
I'm out of the ashes
Crawling through a tunnel
I wanted to fight
Came out the other side
Where it was bright
No more darkness
No more fear
I'm out of the ashes
Because of me
I'm out of the ashes
That was my flame
Blew away the dirt to see a clean slate
I'm out of the ashes
And thank God I'm okay
Okay, I'm okay
I'm out of the ashes
And thank God I'm okay
Okay, I'm okay
I'm out of the ashes
And thank God I'm okay
