[Spoken Intro]

The year is 1991

Birds and people are living together in seemingly perfect harmony

Until one day a young man catches fire

This is "Phoenix"

[Verse 1]

You - you've been knocked down and got up again

In the corner, you're surrounded, no defenders

Woah, you - you've hid your fury and kept it in

But it's time now you ignite and turn to embers

[Chorus]

Like a phoenix you burst into fire

Burn, a thirst and desire

You transform, light up in a flash

You spread your wings and rise from the ashes

Phoenix - you burst into fire

Burn, a thirst and desire

You transform, light up in a flash

You spread your wings and risе from the ashes

[Drop]

They gеt you down, but you get up

They let you drown, but you don't stop

You show them you're a phoenix

Woah

[Spoken Transition]

Get ready for Verse 2: Electric Boogaloo

[Verse 2]

You - you've seen the truth behind the veil

And you know that they're just looking for attention

Woah - you, don't let their ruthlessness prevail

Oh, it's time now, light your fire for ascension

[Chorus]

Like a phoenix you burst into fire

Burn, a thirst and desire

You transform, light up in a flash

You spread your wings and rise from the ashes

Phoenix - you burst into fire

Burn, a thirst and desire

You transform, light up in a flash

You spread your wings and rise from the ashes

[Drop]

They get you down, but you get up

They let you drown, but you don't stop

You show them you're a phoenix

[Chorus]

Phoenix - you burst into fire

Burn, a thirst and desire

You transform, light up in a flash

You spread your wings and rise from the ashes

Phoenix - you burst into fire

Burn, a thirst and desire

You transform, light up in a flash

You spread your wings and rise from the ashes
