[Intro – atmospheric, whispered/clean vocal]
I feel stuck…
Trapped in the walls of my own mind…
Searching for a way out,
But the shadows keep pulling me back inside.
⸻
[Verse 1 – screamed]
Fuck all the people that prayed for my fall,
I’m climbing these ruins, I’ll conquer it all.
The weight of the world is breaking my spine,
But I’ll bleed every drop just to prove I’m alive!
Shattered reflections, I don’t know who I am,
My hands shake with rage, but I’ll die where I stand.
Pressure consumes me, I’m losing control,
But the fire inside me is swallowing whole!
⸻
[Chorus – soaring clean vocals, emotional melody]
I can’t lie, I feel the weight of the world (on me!)
Crushing down, will it bury me or set me free?
Will I die tonight, or see the sunrise?
I’m holding on, though I’m breaking inside.
⸻
[Verse 2 – screamed/harsh]
They want me to fail, they want me erased,
But I’ll fight through the pain, I won’t be replaced.
True friends beside me, we’re bound by the scars,
Even in darkness, they carry my heart.
I’m gasping for air, but I’ll never give in,
I’m stronger than doubt, I’m stronger than sin.
If this is my end, then I’ll face it with pride,
With blood on my hands and fire in my eyes!
⸻
[Chorus – repeat, more intensity]
I can’t lie, I feel the weight of the world (on me!)
Crushing down, will it bury me or set me free?
Will I die tonight, or see the sunrise?
I’m holding on, though I’m breaking inside.
⸻
[Breakdown – brutal, screamed with atmospheric drop]
(Low guitars, 808s, chugging rhythm)
This pressure — it’s tearing me apart!
These voices — they’re ripping through my heart!
But I won’t break, I won’t fade away,
I’ll burn in the night till I see the day!
—BRRRAHHHHH!
⸻
[New Bridge – vulnerable to heavy]
(Cleans over soft guitar/piano)
I’ve walked through fire, I’ve drowned in rain,
Every scar reminds me of pain.
But I’ll keep breathing, I’ll keep believing,
Even if my hands are bleeding.
(Screams crashing back in)
You can’t chain me down, you can’t kill my flame!
I’ll rise from the ashes again and again!
⸻
[Second Breakdown – slower, heavier, crowd chant feel]
Drop the weight, tear the chains… (tear the chains!)
Break my bones, but I’ll remain… (I’ll remain!)
Pressure builds, my lungs collapse,
But I fight back — no turning back!
—BLEGH!
⸻
[Final Chorus – soaring, layered screams & clean harmonies]
I can’t lie, I feel the weight of the world (on me!)
Crushing down, will it bury me or set me free?
Will I die tonight, or see the sunrise?
I’m holding on, though I’m breaking inside.
⸻
[Extended Outro – atmospheric fade, whispered/screamed mix]
The weight of the world… (won’t bury me)
Can’t crush my soul… (I’ll make them see)
Scars on my skin… but I’ll rise again…
I’ll rise again…
…I’ll rise again…
(ambient guitars & synths fade out like the storm passing)
