RELEASE

(Intro – guttural growl, half-spoken, distorted)

GO—

Grrraah—let it rip, fuck the leash, fuck the lies!

Chains on my throat but I’m still alive!

GO! GO!

I’m done being small—I’M READY TO FIGHT!

(Riff kicks in)

Verse 1

Pressure in my skull, clock ticks like a bomb

They fed me fear, said “stay calm, stay numb”

I bit my tongue till I tasted rust

Now the cage cracks open—now it’s me or dust

Pre-Chorus

Hear the sirens in my veins

All this weight, all this pain

Say my name like a sin

Strike the match—let me in

Chorus

RELEASE! Tear the lock from the door

RELEASE! I won’t kneel anymore

Hands in the fire, truth in my teeth

I’m breaking the spell—RELEASE! RELEASE!

(Post-chorus chant)

Let it go! Let it go!

From the ground to the throat—LET IT GO!

Verse 2

I wore their rules like a loaded gun

Pulled back tight till the damage was done

Every “no” carved into bone

But I learned how to scream on my own

Pre-Chorus

Hear the thunder when I breathe

This is war with the weak in me

Count me out? Watch me win

Kick the wall—let me in

Chorus

RELEASE! Tear the lock from the door

RELEASE! I won’t kneel anymore

Blood on the truth, grit on my teeth

I’m breaking the spell—RELEASE! RELEASE!

Bridge / Breakdown (half-time, crowd call)

Say it—GO! (GO!)

Say it—GO! (GO!)

Cut the cord, burn the doubt

Rip the silence—LET IT OUT!

Say it—GO! (GO!)

Say it—GO! (GO!)

No gods, no chains, no peace—

I. WILL. RELEASE!

(Solo – screaming bends, dive bombs)

Final Chorus (bigger, gang vocals)

RELEASE! From the grip of the past

RELEASE! Make the moment last

Stand in the fire, king of the beast

I’m breaking the spell—RELEASE! RELEASE!

Outro (growled, fading)

GO…

No leash. No lie. No cease.

RELEASE.
