lyrics

The day you buried me I thought I had met my end. Drowning in the soil, I spent my days clawing for the surface, trying to find my way back. You tried to wash away who I once was. Saturated, I could feel the strength return. Loneliness knew no bounds when the sun hit my face for the first time. Built atop the ruins of my past selves, I stand and prepare. Feet planted firmly, this is my home. I have built in you a place to become everything I could have ever been. Foes ripped from their families, I flourish. The blood that pumps through my veins, sweet and sticky, will never stain the dirt. I have refused defeat. Mother Earth, in all her grace, has gifted me the phoenix blessing. I have risen from the failures of others and stand, fire-proof, soaking in your power. You may perceive me as small, inconsequential, but it is through your apathy that you will be left in my wake. I have dug deep into the earth, taking all I can. A diamond in the rough, I eat the words of those who surround me and feast upon their failures. My face to the sky, I can only get stronger, and though I saw your birth, you will never see my death. You will never witness my end.
