(Intro)(0:00-0:20)
(Ambient pad + breath sounds)
(Vocal: breathy, intimate, almost spoken)
(Inhale on beat 1, exhale into first line)
(Verse 1)(0:20-0:45)
(Vocal: low register, restrained, Smokey - no vibrato)
(Melody: mostly stepwise, minor phrasing)
I’ve been carrying shadows in my lungs
Every word I swallowed weighed a ton
I bent my spine just to survive
Learned how to breathe while I was breaking inside
(Add a held note on “inside” - let the reverb bloom)
(Pre-chorus) (0:45-1:00)
(Vocal: rising intensity, more air support, controlled power)
(Melody: climbs gradually - tension build)
You tried to name my fear
Tried to keep me small
But I found my voice
In the echo of the fall
(Cut instruments on “fall” - full stop before chorus)
(Chorus 1)(1:00-1:30)
(Vocal: strong mix voice, grounded, emotional but not full belt)
(Melody: anthemic, repetitive hook)
I rise from the silence, unchained and awake
Im fire in the darkness, I don’t bend, I don’t break
Hear my heart in the violence, feel the ground start to shake
I rise from the silence
This power is reclaimed
(Post-chorus)(1:30-1:45)
(Vocal: ethereal head voice/falsetto)
(Hook: chat-like, hypnotic)
Oh-ah, ah-oh
I’m still standing
Oh-ah, ah-oh
I’m commanding
(Verse 2)(1:45-2:05)
(Vocal: warm tone, more confidence)
I walked barefoot through the doubt
Let the pain teach me how
Every scar is sacred now
Every tear wrote the truth out loud
(Pre-chorus)(2:05-2:20)
(Vocal: stronger than first pre, controlled belt on last line)
I was never meant to fade
Never born to disappear
I’m the storm you couldn’t tame
I’m the reason I’m still here
(Bridge)(2:20-2:40)
(Production: beat drops out - just drone + breath)
(Vocal: whispered - half spoken - sudden belt)
If I fall, I fall forward
If I burn, I burn bright
I don’t ask for forgiveness
For choosing my life
(Silence for half beat - inhale)
(Final chorus)(key change)
(Key: G minor)
(Vocal: full belt, controlled vibrato, emotional release)
(Melody: lifted, longer sustained notes)
I rise from the silence, crowned in my flame
I don’t need your approval, I remember my name
Every wound is a weapon, every breath is a claim
I rise from the silence
I rise - I remain
(Outro)(last breath)
(Vocal: soft, mantra-like)
I am more than fear…
I remain…
