"From Ashes to Flowers" is the debut single by Endwayz, a metal project deeply rooted in philosophical reflection, emotional confrontation, and existential themes. Entirely composed, written, and produced by Poria Maftoon, this track marks a powerful introduction to the sonic identity of the band — heavy, atmospheric, and thought-provoking.
Released on March 20, 2020, this single quickly became available across all major digital platforms, offering listeners a raw yet carefully crafted metal experience that balances aggression with introspection.
"From Ashes to Flowers" dives into the cyclical nature of destruction and rebirth. It portrays the internal collapse of the self — the moment when everything seems lost — followed by the unexpected bloom of resilience, clarity, and transformation. The lyrics are poetic, layered with symbolism, and open to interpretation, inviting the listener to reflect on their own personal ashes and what might rise from them.
The core message:
“Even the coldest ruins can give birth to something beautiful.”
Musically, the song combines dense guitar riffs with haunting melodic textures, shifting between crushing heaviness and melancholic serenity — mirroring the song’s philosophical tension between despair and hope.
Endwayz is more than a band — it's a philosophical project exploring themes such as identity, death, rebirth, disillusionment, and transcendence through the language of metal. Inspired by existential philosophy, inner conflict, and the darker layers of the human psyche, the music speaks to those who seek meaning in chaos.
Now streaming on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, Bandcamp, and all major platforms.
Endwayz - From Ashes to Flowers
From ashes deep, where shadows lie,
Broken echoes start to cry,
Chains of dust around my feet,
Whispers cold, incomplete.
Wounds carved by time's cruel hand,
Scars that burn, that understand,
Yet beneath this dying flame,
Seeds await the sun and rain.
Hope buried under pain,
Rise to breathe again,
Through the dirt and despair,
Life finds a way to share.
From ashes to flowers share,
Colors born from dark despair,
Breaking through the stone and fire,
Blooming dreams that never tire.
From ashes to flowers share,
Beauty born from what we bear,
Roots that drink from grief and tears,
Growing strong beyond the fears.
Crumbled walls and shattered ground,
Lost but waiting to be found,
Caged within my own regret,
Thorns of memories I can't forget.
But even dust can hold a spark,
Even wounds can mend the heart,
Through the ruins, I will climb,
Bloom against the end of time.
Hope buried under pain,
Rise to breathe again,
Through the dirt and despair,
Life finds a way to share.
From ashes to flowers share,
Colors born from dark despair,
Breaking through the stone and fire,
Blooming dreams that never tire.
From ashes to flowers share,
Beauty born from what we bear,
Roots that drink from grief and tears,
Growing strong beyond the fears.
Petals rise from shadows past,
Proof that pain won't always last,
With every scar and every fall,
We learn to stand, we learn to call.
Ashes fade, flowers awake,
Life reborn from every ache,
Dust to beauty, pain to power,
Rise again, flower by flower.
From ashes to flowers share,
Colors born from dark despair,
Breaking through the stone and fire,
Blooming dreams that never tire.
From ashes to flowers share,
Beauty born from what we bear,
Roots that drink from grief and tears,
Growing strong beyond the fears.
From the dust where sorrow sleeps,
Life ascends and softly speaks,
From ashes to flowers share,
Hope is always waiting there.
