Lyrics:

Verse 1:
I was born in the heart of a storm,Raised on the edge of a knife,I fought in the desert, came home to a war,With a soul that was too tired to fight.

Chorus:
But from the ashes, I rise,With the blues in my veins,I've walked through the fire,Now I'm breaking these chains.

Verse 2:
Built my empire brick by brick,Watched it crumble in the night,Lost myself in the bottle's kiss,Chased that darkness into the light.

Chorus:
But from the ashes, I rise,With the blues in my veins,I've walked through the fire,Now I'm breaking these chains.

Bridge:
I fell hard, I fell deep,But love and faith pulled me up from the deep,Now I'm standing on the edge with a new dream to chase,For every veteran feeling like they're out of place.

Guitar Solo (Here, imagine a soulful, bluesy guitar solo with rock intensity)

Verse 3:
I'm no preacher, but I found my way,Through the pain, through the night,Now I'm building something new,To save the souls that lost their light.

Chorus:
From the ashes, we rise,With the blues in our veins,We'll walk through the fire,Together we'll break these chains.

Outro:
From the service to the streets,From the bottle to belief,I'm here to lift you up,Cause I know we can be redeemed.
