Prompt / Lyrics
(Soft piano. Close mic. Breath audible.) Verse 1 So I wake up I take a deep breath And I learn to fly again Broken feathers at my feet Every scar a lesson learned Another hill I climb I keep going I keep living Even when hope feels thin Pre-Chorus You won’t win I won’t give you that grin ⸻ Chorus You won’t win I won’t give you that grin Take your tainted words Turn them back within I won’t drown No, I won’t go down ’Cause I have hope Even when it’s breaking now I have love I have dreams that still begin You won’t win ⸻ (Guitars build — steady, restrained.) Verse 2 Look at the miser you become Trying to bring me down But I am not going to drown I am something you are not I have hope I have love I have dreams That don’t rip at the seams I gave you empathy You never gave to me ⸻ Pre-Chorus (rising) So try to beat me Try to cheat me ⸻ Chorus (stronger, layered) You won’t win I won’t give you that grin Take your poison words Let them cave you in I won’t drown I am standing now ’Cause I have hope And it’s louder now I have love I have dreams that still begin You won’t win ⸻ (Music drops. Just voice. Tight tension.) Bridge That’s why I hold you The way you never do me That’s why I am the human You wish to be (Beat.) Try to break me— (Short, emotional scream) YOU WON’T BREAK ME. ⸻ Final Chorus (full power) You won’t win I won’t give you that grin Take your empty words Wear them on your skin I won’t drown I am rising now ’Cause I have hope And it’s louder now I have love I have dreams that still begin You won’t win ⸻ (Soft outro — stripped again) So I wake up I take a deep breath And I learn To fly again.
