[Verse 1] 
I burned down what I called my home
Traded truth for nights alone
Lies were sweet behind the dark
Now my friends have left their mark

Her heart broke beneath my hands
Vows I swore dissolved to sand
Mirrors crack when I look through
I’m the ghost my lies made true

[Pre-Chorus 1] 
My name’s a scar I can’t reclaim
Every bridge consumed by flame
I’m the echo of my shame
Burning out in time I claimed

[Chorus] 
In the ashes of myself, I’m crawling through the flame
Every secret that I kept is screaming out my name
I lost it all to feel alive — now I’m just a stain
In the ashes of myself, there’s no one left to blame

[Verse 2] 
She walked away into the night
I fed the fire that killed the light
Betrayal’s carved into my skin
Regret’s a tide that pulls me in

My family’s gone, they shut the gate
No tears to mourn my broken state
This empty bed is all I own
Where love I broke won’t call its home

[Pre-Chorus 2] 
I taste the venom on my tongue
Every lie I wove and sung
I’m the ruin, I’m the cost
Counting all my soul has lost

[Chorus] 
In the ashes of myself, I’m choking on the flame
Every secret that I kept is carving out my name
I burned it all to feel alive — now I’m just a stain
In the ashes of myself, there’s no one left to blame

[Bridge] 
I chased the thrill that left me numb
Love I sold for fleeting crumbs
Was it worth my hollowed soul?
Would you loathe me if I told?

[Chorus] 
In the ashes of myself, I’m fading in the flame
Every secret that I kept has buried all my name
I lost it all to feel alive — now I’m just a stain
In the ashes of myself, I’m drowning in the blame

[Outro] 
I’m the ruin I can’t flee
Lies now carve the heart of me
Echoes haunt my hollowed cost
Counting all my soul has lost

Ashes of Myself

You Are Greater is a journey through brokenness, silence, and surrender — a collection of songs written in the dark valleys of faith. These aren’t just tracks, they’re prayers. Some are cries for mercy, some are confessions of weakness, and some are declarations of hope when nothing else makes sense.

This album starts in places of wandering and unholiness, but it doesn’t stay there. Each song wrestles with despair, only to find grace breaking through. The title track, You Are Greater, anchors the whole project: a reminder that no matter how deep the shadows, God’s presence is greater than our fear, our shame, and even our silence.

For anyone who’s ever felt too far gone, too unworthy, or too broken — these songs are for you.


You are greater

These songs aren’t just music—they’re prayers. They were born in brokeness, whispered when I had no words left to pray. God gave them to me as reminders that He is still here. My hope is that they can be a song in your night, the anthem you hold on to when life feels too heavy.

You are greater
