Ashes of LA
hip-hop, raw, sad, melancholic, rap, emotional, reflective,los angeles,california
Embers fell from the sky, red in the haze,
Smoke choke the air, nights turning into days.
Lost homes and dreams, memories ablaze,
Ash covering souls, hearts caught in a maze.
Sweat and tears mix with soot on the skin,
Horizons weep dark, deep within.
Sirens wail mournful, ghostly din,
Flames dance, mocking, relentless sin.
Rise from the ashes, cities reborn,
Nature heals the wounds, hearts no longer torn.
Future in the flames, past to adorn,
Hope in the ruins, new life’s sworn.
Families hold tight, grip through despair,
Eyes reflecting loss, disbelief in the stare.
Courage found in chaos, strong beyond repair,
Rebuilding from nothing, seeds in the air.
Silent prayers under nights of dread,
Grateful for each breath, though tears are shed.
Faith in nature’s cycle, life’s golden thread,
From soil scorched black, green will spread.
Charred landscapes, scars that bear truth,
Whispers of survival, echoes of lost youth.
In the heart of fire, found strength so aloof,
Ashes to phoenix, eternity’s proof.
