To rise like a phoenix we must burn first,
Hold the grail, kiss it and quench the thirst.
For all that is mighty and Royal today, be once all dirt must,
You are the flame, darling, you are the demon and the angel, but just.
Be the icarus and dont rest till the sun turns you to dust,
And then again rise like a phoenix, but lets burn first.

Societal elements will tell you whom to trust,
And whom not to but ask yourself first.
For the ancient opinions have nothing but rust,
Be benevolent being, and be just.
Then and only then would they follow you with gust,
Love is the key, remember and not the lust.
And if need be, kneel and bow down if you must,
And then again rise like a phoenix, but lets burn first.
