[Verse 1] [Sung Emotional delivery] [Minimal kick and soft pads]
Grew up in shadows, where the sirens used to sing
Concrete jungle dreams never meant a thing
Mama cried at night, tryna keep us warm
Love was a whisper in a world of storms
[Pre-Chorus] [intensity builds, melody rises, snare rolls in] [powerful vocal delivery]
They said I’d never make it, just fade into the night
But I had fire in my chest, and stars inside my sight
Every step was struggle, every breath a fight
Now I’m climbing higher — heading to the light

[Chorus] [Massive melodic synth drop + vocal hook]
[Panpipes lead into a big euphoric melody]
[Lyrics (anthemic, sing-along style):]
Don’t hold me back!
I’m rising like the sun, no fear, I’m on the run
Don’t hold me back!
This heart was made to shine, I’m leaving dark behind
Ohhh—ooohhh
Don’t hold me back!
I’m breaking every chain, I’m dancing through the flame
Don’t hold me back!
You’ll never see me fall — I’m gonna have it all
[The "Ohhhh—ooohhh" line echoes with crowd-style backing vocals for festival energy.]

[Instrumental Break]
[Panpipe-led break with soaring synths and rhythmic build]
---
[Verse 2]
I’ve seen too many fade, swallowed by the street
But I turned my pain to power, lifted every beat
Built my life from silence, turned my scars to flame
Now they say my name — they remember my name
---
[Pre-Chorus]
They tried to clip my wings, but I was born to fly
I bled, I burned, I learned to reach the sky
No fear in my reflection, just truth in what I lack
And everything I carry now — I carry on my back
---
[Chorus]
Don’t hold me back!
I’m rising like the sun, no fear, I’m on the run
Don’t hold me back!
This heart was made to shine, I’m leaving dark behind
Ohhh—ooohhh
Don’t hold me back!
I’m breaking every chain, I’m dancing through the flame
Don’t hold me back!
You’ll never see me fall — I’m gonna have it all
---
[Bridge – Spoken or Softly Sung]
To every kid still trapped where I used to stand...
You’re more than your pain, more than the plan.
They can break your walls — but not your flame.
You were born to rise. Remember your name.
---
[Final Chorus – BIG & ANTHEMIC]
Don’t hold me back!
I’m rising like the sun, no fear, I’m on the run
Don’t hold me back!
This heart was made to shine, I’m leaving dark behind
Ohhh—ooohhh
Don’t hold me back!
The past is in my wake — there's nothing I won’t break
Don’t hold me back!
I’ve come too far to fall — I’m gonna have it all
---
[Outro – Echoed vocals with panpipe melody]
Don’t hold me back...
[echoed]
Don’t hold me back...
