Martina McBride From the Ashes song lyrics

My right hand holds matches

My left holds my past

I hope the wind catches

And burns it down fast

I'm gonna step into the fire

With my failures and my shame

And wave goodbye to yesterday

As I dance among the flames So

Chorus:

Don't try to save me now

Let the walls of my world all burn down

Just stand back and wait 'til the smoke finally passes

And I will rise

From the ashes

From the ashes

From the ashes

For all that I'm losing

Much more will I gain

The hard part is choosing

To change what needs changed

My step will be much lighter

With these demons off my chest

I'm born a better spirit

And lay the old to rest

Repeat Chorus

I'll walk away stronger

I will be flyin'

Higher and truer

Than I've flown before

My right hand holds matches

My left holds my past

I hope the wind catches

And burns it down fast
