I lift off My wings set to the sky Arise from ashes And now I fly Through flames of war I have been reborn its my time I have made it mine
When soaring high above my enemies I understand the things you see in me To vanquish those who choose to fight I’ll bring peace before the night
Why do you still challenge me? You can’t win It’s not your destiny Like the moth who flies into the flame You won’t return You’ll lose your name
Gave you hope to unite with me Oppose darkness, let all men see You have chosen to go your way You chose to seize the day
Rising like the phoenix From the ashes of the fire My greatest strength is not your desire Can I be a champion fair and free To the end Defying gravity
The clear white jet stream scars The deep blue sky I pull ahead Spread my wings and fly Because of you we’ll fight And some will die Because of you We will always try
Why do you still challenge me? You can’t win It’s not your destiny Like the moth who flies into the flame You won’t return You will lose your name
Gave you hope to unite with me Oppose darkness, let all men see You have chosen to go your way You chose to seize the day
Rising like the phoenix From the ashes of the fire My greatest strength is not your desire Can I be a champion fair and free To the end Defying gravity
Going ever higher than the clouds Climbing fast Breaking sound We’ll suffer more And overcome Some day You and I Will touch the sun
Gave you hope to unite with me Oppose darkness, let all men see You have chosen to go your way You chose to seize the day
Chorus Rising like the phoenix From the ashes of the fire My greatest strength is not your desire Can I be a champion fair and free To the end Defying gravity
