You Can Rise Above the Ashes

You can rise 
above the ashes

When you have
lost everything
and you feel like 
you cant go on

Because you can 
start rebuilding

And no matter 
how hard that
may seem to you

It can be done

Just continue to 
believe in your dreams

And your dreams 
will come true

Even if it means 

That you have to 
start all over again
