Rise From Ashes

[Verse]
Dark alleys whispering lies in my ear
Devil's temptations crawl so near
Highs couldn't lift the weight I bear
Lost in the blackness gasping for air
[Verse 2]
A bottle’s promise broke at my feet
Ashes of hunger tasted bittersweet
Homeless pain seared deep in my veins
God's voice bled through the pouring rain
[Chorus]
And I see Him brighter than the highest skies
This love
It burns and strips the lies
From broken streets to holy ground I stand
Now a grateful dad with His guiding hand
[Verse 3]
Felt heaven's pull through the devil's grip
Every prayer’s a war till chains unzip
I was falling fast into fire below
Till love raised wings where fear once showed
[Bridge]
The cries of my kids echo in my chest
Home ain’t walls it’s where I’m blessed
The man I swore I'd never be
Now kneels in thanks for what’s set free
[Chorus]
And I see Him brighter than the highest skies
This love
It burns and strips the lies
From broken streets to holy ground I stand
Now a grateful dad with His guiding hand
