Choose To Be Lightning

[Verse 1]
Thunder in the distance
All that talk
No fire
Crowds chase every echo
Get lost in the choir
I’ve been in that thunder
All sound
Same sky
Afraid of the silence
Afraid to really try
[Chorus]
Thunder roars but never strikes
Empty noise in sleepless nights
Lightning hits and leaves a scar
Quick and bright
You know who you are
I don’t wanna just be loud on the horizon
I choose to be lightning (yeah)
I choose to be lightning
[Verse 2]
One step from the cliff edge
One breath
Then jump
Better to burn in a moment
Than rust in a slump
They’ll feel it or they won’t feel
That’s out of my hands
I’m here for the impact
Not everyone’s plans
[Chorus]
Thunder roars but never strikes
Empty noise in sleepless nights
Lightning hits and leaves a scar
Quick and bright
You know who you are
I don’t wanna just be loud on the horizon
I choose to be lightning (hey)
I choose to be lightning
[Bridge]
Hit hard
Hit once
Leave marks
Leave tracks
Be flash
Be fact
No mask
No act
[Chorus]
Thunder roars but never strikes
Let them talk
I’ll live my life
Lightning hits and splits the dark
Short and fierce
A blazing mark
I don’t wanna just be loud on the horizon
I choose to be lightning (oh)
I choose to be lightning
I choose to be lightning

Epic motivational rock with cinematic drums and wide guitars; verses start sparse with palm-muted crunch and low synth pads, then choruses explode into soaring male vocals, tom-heavy hits, and stacked gang shouts on key phrases. Bridge strips back to bass, vocal, and distant hits, then slams into a final, anthemic chorus with held notes and big crashes.
