(Intro – distorted radio static, low guitar feedback)
Yeah…
Dig deep.
We don’t stay buried.
(Verse 1)
Six feet under but I’m wide awake
Dirt in my lungs, still breathing hate
They carved my name in cold stone lies
But I ripped the nails from my own demise
Echoes laugh from a broken past
Every scar says I won’t collapse
They said stay down, know your place
I learned how to rise beyond the graves
(Pre-Chorus – half-time, tension build)
Hands in the dirt, blood on my faith
Still hear my pulse in the quake
Say my name like it’s over and done
Watch me reload, I’m not done
(Chorus – BIG, aggressive, chant-ready)
I rise beyond graves
Past the dirt, past the pain
You tried to bury the fire
Now the ground screams my name
I rise beyond graves
No chains, no fate
You made me a ghost
Now I haunt your mistakes
(Post-Chorus – rhythmic shout)
Beyond!
The graves!
(Verse 2 – groove riff, nu-metal bounce)
Static in my head won’t shut me down
Every dead end taught me how
To fight with teeth, to crawl with pride
Survival carved deep in my spine
No saviors left, no hands to hold
Just iron will and a soul gone cold
If this is hell, then I adapt
Built from rage they couldn’t cap
(Pre-Chorus 2 – more intense)
Every lie just fueled the flame
Every fall taught me my aim
Call me dead, carve the slate
I don’t rot — I detonate
(Chorus – repeat, heavier)
I rise beyond graves
Past the dirt, past the pain
You tried to bury the fire
Now the ground screams my name
I rise beyond graves
No chains, no fate
You made me a ghost
Now I haunt your mistakes
(Bridge – breakdown / scream + whisper contrast)
(Scream)
Bury me — I DARE YOU
(Whisper)
I grow in the dark
(Scream)
Every loss made me harder
(Whisper)
I’m already gone
(Guitar Solo – gritty, melodic bends, wah optional)
(Let it scream, then dive back into rhythm)
(Final Chorus – all-in, layered vocals)
I rise beyond graves
I don’t fear the end
Death couldn’t hold me
I crawled back again
I rise beyond graves
Hear the stone crack
I was built from the fall
And I’m never going back
(Outro – slow, crushing riff)
They wrote my end in stone and rain…
I wrote my name…
Beyond graves.
