Rising From The Ashes (Remix)
A song made by Mrs Mutale
(Soft, slow piano chords echoing)
(Gentle, breathy exhale)
It feels like the world just stopped turning
But the light is still there, somewhere
The desk is empty, the screen is dark
The quiet room feels heavy with the spark
Of everything I built that slipped away
A sudden ending to the light of day
I’m looking at the walls and feeling small
Like I’m waiting for the other shoe to fall
The silence is a weight upon my chest
Searching for a place to finally rest
It’s okay to let the tears run free
It’s okay to be exactly who I need to be
The road is long and the fog is thick tonight
But even in the shadows, I am holding onto light
I am more than the title that I wore
I am walking through a closing door
To find a path I haven't seen before
They say that change is just a season turn
But this is fire and I’m bound to burn
Before the ashes turn into the seed
I’m giving myself space, the time I need
To breathe again, to find the steady beat
Beneath the ground that’s shifting under feet
I wasn't defined by the lines I drew
Or the corporate shade of the sky of blue
It’s okay to let the tears run free
It’s okay to be exactly who I need to be
The road is long and the fog is thick tonight
But even in the shadows, I am holding onto light
I am more than the title that I wore
I am walking through a closing door
To find a path I haven't seen before
So I’ll be patient with the hollow space
I’ll learn to love the stillness in this place
Tomorrow isn't promised, but it’s real
And I’m healing in the way I need to heal
One step forward, even when I’m weak
Finding all the courage that I seek
It’s okay to let the tears run free
It’s okay to be exactly who I need to be
The road is long and the fog is thick tonight
But even in the shadows, I am holding onto light
I am more than the title that I wore
I am walking through a closing door
To find a path I haven't seen before
It’s okay
Just breathe through the night
The morning is coming
It’s going to be okay
(Piano fades slowly into silence)
