[Verse 1]
Woke up in the ashes feelin' like a ghost
Torn between my demons yeah they held me close
I used to be a shadow tryin' to play a role
But now I'm burnin' bridges just to save my soul
They told me who to be, had me locked inside
Fed me all their lies, but I cut those ties
They try to tell me that I'm wrong in my mind
Took a blade to the past, left it all behind

[Pre-Chorus]
Left my past in the rearview, I ain't goin' back
Wear my fate with my own hands, never fade to black
This the ode to the old me, but I ain't feelin' sad
If they doubt me now I'm the last to laugh

[Chorus]
This is not the end no, this will never be over
Made it out the fire, but my heart grew colder
This is my revival, suicide gone viral
Had to kill the old me for a chance at survival

[Post-Chorus]
Had to kill the old me for a chance at survival

[Verse 2]
They said I'd never make it, said I'd never rise
Told me stay the same, obey comply
They try to call me strange, like my brain just isn't right
But I've been goin' against the grain like my whole damn life
I'm finally movin' on, now the old me's dead
I gotta be myself until my last breath
The demons in my head try to hunt me down
I just do my best try to shut them out
[Pre-Chorus]
Left my past in the rearview, I ain't goin' back
Wear my fate with my own hands, never fade to black
This the ode to the old me, but I ain't feelin' sad
If they doubt me now I'm the last to laugh

[Chorus]
This is not the end, no, this will never be over
Made it out the fire, but my heart grew colder
This is my revival, suicide gone viral
Had to kill the old me for a chance at survival

[Post-Chorus]
Had to kill the old me for a chance at survival
