🔥Intro (whispered to screamed buildup):
I watched the world forget my name…
But I never f*ing left.
⸻
🪓Verse 1 (screamed – Corey Taylor-style):
Born loud—raised in the fire,
Confidence was carved in wire.
They cheered when I led the pack,
Now they flinch like dogs when I talk back.
Fell apart when the winds changed course,
Graduation came like a goddamn force.
Now I’m here, breathing smoke and steel—
I’m the only thing left that’s real.
⸻
⚔️Pre-Chorus (Angela Gossow growl > melodic layering):
You want soft?
You want silence?
You won’t get it from me.
(🗣 “I was built for the battlefield—
Not to bow. Not to flee.”)
⸻
🎶Chorus (melodic + harsh dual vocals, Arch Enemy style):
🎵
It’s not always for the win—
But it’s never without a war.
I stand with the ones who stay—
Not the ghosts who bolt the door.
Still loaded. Still locked. Still born of flame—
I’m still here.
And I’m not the one who changed.
🎵
⸻
☠️Verse 2 (Slipknot cadence, chaotic / percussive):
Game on—mask off—I found my soul
In a lobby where I lose control.
He spoke like a coward mid-match,
Whined like a fuse with no scratch.
Tried to burn me with guilt and retreat,
But I don’t fold—I delete.
I called it straight, took my stand—
I’m the storm, not a reprimand.
⸻
🔥Bridge (breakdown riff, blast beats under vocals):
Say it to my face or stay buried in your screen.
You can ghost me, doubt me—
But you’ll never erase what I’ve been.
Ashes don’t fade.
Ashes don’t fade.
ASHES—DON’T—FADE!
⸻
🎵Final Chorus (clean vocals with scream overlays, emotionally charged):
🎵
It’s not always for the win—
It’s for who I fight beside.
The ones who don’t flinch,
The ones who never hide.
Still sharp. Still loud. Still not afraid—
Yeah, I’m still here…
And these ashes don’t fade.
🎵
⸻
🎤Outro (Angela-style scream):
I’M STILL HERE—AND I NEVER LEFT!
I. NEVER. FING. LEFT.*
