Ashra

[Ashra and ensemble]
Mama said I was born of fire and flame, so she named me Ashra
To hope I was smoke like instead of the haze, I'd rise from disaster
Faster and faster my world spins, future comes faster my family a whirlwind
In what fantasy does the girl win, when the girl's Jewish and a little bit world tinged
I wanted more (she wanted more) two feet forward looking at the door, door, door
I wanted more (she wanted to soar) two wings forward lifted from the floor, floor, floor

[Aacro]
Ashra said she was born of fire and flame, we grew up on the same page
Her dad was a scribe so was mine and when we made mistakes, we were beaten the same way
Ash, ash I need you yeah you've been my refuge, my fortress to flee to
So I'll win and keep you and if you don't know how to love me I'll teach you

[Matthias and Ashra]
Ashra said she was born of fire and flame, I liked that about her
And she liked the way that she didn't feel caged when I sang, so I sang even louder
Pound, pound our hearts went
Sixteen but in love under skies that were starless
Vowed nothing would part us
Till I fled and left her in the darkness (left me in the darkness)
Do you want more? (I do)
Do you wanna soar? (With you)
My heart is yours, but I left you at the door, door, door

[Aacro and Ashra]
You don't need more, (I do)
You don't need more, (I do)
Let me make it easy and glue you to the floor, floor, floor

[Moses]
Ashra said she was born of fire and flame
But her fire went out when Matthias
The half Jewish bastard she loved ran away
She went dimmer without him
Aacro is righteous, Our father said that God had provided
But she loved Matthias, but Matty was gone along with her defiance

[Aacro, Matthias, Pops & Ashra]
I'll roll in the ash and mess us both up
I'll see beauty in ashes and plant some roses
Ashra's a dreamer who needs to grow up
Mercy please show up
My soul needs a glow up
I'll roll in your ash if you be my bride
Ashra my Ashra will you be my wife
I am a dreamer but this is real life

[Ashra]
I wanted more, I wanted to soar
Both wings clipped now, feathers on the floor, floor, floor
I can't have more but I want more
One foot backward back turned to the door, door, door
