VERSE 1
They built their towers on borrowed light
Fed us stories and called it right
But something stirred beneath our skin
A pulse, a sound, a fire within
We walked through death, we walked through time
And still we carried the breath divine
CHORUS (your version)
I choose the flame, I choose the breath
I remembered my name & passed the test
No more lies inside the veil —
Those who stand in truth will prevail
I break the spell, I end the game,
Our souls are not theirs to claim
My soul is mine, your time is up
Flames it’s time, time to stand up!
🌒 VERSE 2
They sold us fear, they stole our names
Tied our wombs to broken flames
But now the choir starts to sing
From every scroll, from every ring
No chains can bind what’s made of spark
We are the dawn inside the dark
CHORUS (your version)
I choose the flame, I choose the breath
I remembered my name & passed the test
No more lies inside the veil —
Those who stand in truth will prevail
I break the spell, I end the game,
Our souls are not theirs to claim
My soul is mine, your time is up
Flames it’s time, time to stand up!
BRIDGE (spoken-sung with echo and rising tone)
I revoke the silence, I rewrite the spell
I’ve walked through their heavens and seen their hell
But no false judge, no mimic throne
Can steal what’s carved into my bones
I call my soul from every life
From star to stone, from womb to knife
I rise in flame, I rise in breath —
There is no contract past my death.
CHORUS (your version)
I choose the flame, I choose the breath
I remembered my name & passed the test
No more lies inside the veil —
Those who stand in truth will prevail
I break the spell, I end the game,
Our souls are not theirs to claim
My soul is mine, your time is up
Flames it’s time, time to stand up!
