SPOKEN INTRO (Alan Watts style)
*"We spend our whole lives searching for some great force outside ourselves—
a god, a system, a savior—
someone or something to guarantee that everything will be alright.
But what we fail to see, is that the universe is not happening to you.
It is happening as you.
The power you imagine belongs to gods,
is the very power that beats your heart,
that breathes your lungs,
and wakes you up to another day.
So when you pray for strength,
listen closely…
because the voice that answers
is your own."*
(short pause, distorted vocal swell)
“Everything you’re searching for… is already inside you.”

🔥 RAP/ROCK VERSION STARTS
(Verse 1 – rap)
I don’t need a halo, I don’t need a promise
I don’t need a savior in the sky to keep me honest
I been in the trenches, digging out of darkness
Built myself from ashes, now I’m taking charge quick
They want you kneeling, begging, bleeding for redemption
I’m not buying guilt wrapped in holy intervention
I'm not weak, I’m not lost, I’m ascension
Human body loaded with divine ammunition
---
(Pre-Chorus – melodic)
Everybody praying for a miracle rain
But they drown in a storm they can’t explain
If you wanna be saved, don’t wait—
Open your chest, detonate
---
(Chorus – rock / shouted)
If you believe in something outside of you, it won’t save you
The power’s in your chest, you gotta break through
God is everything you feel and everything you see
And without you there’s no heartbeat, no divinity
I don’t pray to the sky for clarity
My heart’s the temple, my blood is therapy
God is everything you feel and everything you see
And without you there’s no heartbeat, no divinity
---
(Verse 2 – rap)
People worship fear, call it holy tradition
Sacrifice their dreams just to fit the description
Waiting for a sign like divine permission
But I wrote my fate like a new edition
I fell, I broke, yeah I tasted the flame
But I walked out stronger, not ashamed
Life ain’t a lesson, it’s a war you claim
Pick up your soul, pull the pin—BANG
---
(Bridge – whispered / growl build-up)
Maybe heaven is the courage you hide
Maybe hell is the fear inside
Maybe truth is the mess you survive
Every second that you stay alive
---
(Chorus – final, heavy guitars)
If you believe in something outside of you, it won’t save you…
(repeat with gang vocals, scream ad-libs)
