Like a Pheonix I Rise
My bow is broken
My arrow has snapped
I'm walking slowly trynna
piece it all back
I've burn through mountains
I've walked on land mines
I've cried whole seas for you
But you’d never know
Cause that was my soul
That hides in the dark
I've overcome the difficulties
Turned complicated things into simplicity
Told lies that burned my heart and scared my soul
And now all I have is a broken arrow and bow
When I was crying you held me tight
But you don't know how much I had to fight
The heart of a warrior I have inside
Cause otherwise I would have died
You say I'm mad say Im crazy
Walk in my shoes might you maybe
The darkness has worn my skin
And bruised my lips
But I like a phoenix I rise
