(Opening with Punchy, Driving Drum Beat)
(Verse 1)
I spent a lifetime looking over my shoulder
Every shadow felt like a snare that made me colder
They said the battle lines were drawn outside my head
But the war was raging where the real me bled
I was a ghost ship sailing on an empty sea
A momentary blip of what I used to be
Tried to fight the current, felt the undertow
But the roots were gripping where I couldn't go, where I couldn't go.
(Pre-Chorus)
No sudden flash, no lightning strike
Just the slow, hard shift into the light
It's not a fight I'm fighting anymore
It's the evidence of change knocking down the door!
(Chorus - Anthemic, War Cry)
(DRUMS HIT HARD)
HEY! The hunted is hunting!
HEY! The victim is done!
The enemy's plans are breaking like glass beneath the sun!
I'm operating on a new plane; he can't touch me here
He keeps laying down the traps, but I can see 'em crystal clear!
This is the turning point, this is the roar from the ground!
The old me was lost, but the victor is finally found!
(Verse 2)
He used to whisper sweet sabotage in my ear
Tried to make me look inward, drown me in my own fear
He was a master of the subtle overtake
A cheap illusion I finally learned to break
He's less effective now, a rattling chain on the floor
I'm seeing his movements that I fell for before
And the strength is in me, woven and deep inside
The old skin is shed, there's nowhere left to hide!
(Pre-Chorus)
No sudden flash, no lightning strike
Just the slow, hard shift into the light
It's not a fight I'm fighting anymore
It's the evidence of change knocking down the door!
(Chorus - Anthemic, War Cry)
(DRUMS HIT HARD)
HEY! The hunted is hunting!
HEY! The victim is done!
The enemy's plans are breaking like glass beneath the sun!
I'm operating on a new plane; he can't touch me here
He keeps laying down the traps, but I can see 'em crystal clear!
This is the turning point, this is the roar from the ground!
The old me was lost, but the victor is finally found!
(Bridge)
He won't back off, he won't let go, I know his face
But I'm sidestepping his snares with deliberate grace
I'm walking the course, I'm keeping the pace, yeah, keep it up!
My mind's been renewed, I've emptied the fear cup!
I can see right through it, I can react differently!
This new assignment starts with the victory!
(Guitar Solo - Edgy, Fast)
(Outro - Drums get faster, building intensity)
Victors... Victors...
I'm chasing, I'm chasing...
HEY! (War Cry Echoes)
I'M CHASING YOU NOW!
(Final Massive Drum Hit and Stop)
