Lyrics
They said the fire would cleanse the soul But I still carry what it stole The altar burned, the past turned black But that don’t mean it won’t come back
I watched the cross fall in the flame Still heard my father speak my name But I ain’t feel no holy light Just smoke that made it hard to fight
Ashes ain’t proof of salvation Just proof that something’s gone You can burn the book and say it’s done — But the sin still sings along No fire ever made me new It just left scars where I once knew Ashes ain’t proof of salvation... Just proof I walked through hell
I wore white once, when I believed Before I saw how fire deceives They promised clean, they promised peace But gave me heat with no release
Now I walk where the embers glow With truths too heavy not to show The kind that prayers can’t override The kind the righteous try to hide
Ashes ain’t proof of salvation They’re proof of what I lost Don’t tell me grace comes free and clean — I know the weight, I know the cost I lit the match, I watched it fall And still I don’t feel saved at all Ashes ain’t proof of salvation... They're just what's left of pain
Ashes ain’t proof of salvation Don’t mean a soul’s been found They just mean somethin’ used to breathe — And now it’s buried in the ground So if you see smoke in my eyes Just know I’ve stopped believin’ lies Ashes ain’t proof of salvation... Just proof I’m still alive
