Emberborn

Verse 1

I was born where the winter breaks

Where silence trembles and the red sky wakes

Last breath of flame on a frozen tongue

Half ancient storm, half undone

They marked my skin with a hidden sign

A second heartbeat beneath the spine

One walks fearless into the night

One guards the wound out of sight

Pre-Chorus

I don’t belong to holy ground

I rise where no one hears a sound

I carry dusk inside my veins

I breathe in shadows, exhale flames

Chorus

I am emberborn, I don’t expire

Ash in my lungs, blood full of fire

Claws in the dark, crown made of wire

I fall like thunder, rise even higher

Don’t try to tame what you don’t understand

I hold the storm in an open hand

Break my bones, I’ll still conspire

I am the spark you can’t retire

Verse 2

I love too fierce, I leave too fast

I build my future out of my past

There’s velvet mercy in my stare

But steel beneath the midnight prayer

You see the calm before the strike

You think I bend — I only bide

Two wolves circling in my chest

One seeks war, one seeks rest

Pre-Chorus

I don’t forgive, I transform

I don’t collapse inside the storm

I taste the edge, I cross the line

The dark and light both call me mine

Chorus

I am emberborn, forged in fire

Half wild hunger, half silent choir

Scars like scripture, carved in pyre

I don’t fade — I ascend higher

Try to cage me, feel the wire

Every wound just feeds the fire

You can’t drown what won’t tire

I am the echo of desire

Bridge (slow build)

Beneath the frost, beneath the skin

There’s something ancient stirring within

Not saint, not sinner, not beast, not bride

Just sacred fury I cannot hide

If I burn, I burn awake

If I break, I reshape

If I bleed, I ignite

I am dusk learning to bite

Final Chorus (big, layered, dramatic)

I am emberborn, night’s own flame

No gentle heart, no borrowed name

From the edge where the red stars conspire

I was born inside the fire

Ash to crown, wire to throne

I walk the dark but stand alone

You can fear me, you can admire

But you will never own the fire
