Because I Choose to Kneel

Verse 1 – flüsternd, unterwürfig, aber stolz)

I kneel before you

because you speak the word—

but deeper still,

because I choose

to fall before you first.

Your shadow calls me,

pulls me in,

wraps around

my trembling skin.

I bow my head,

not out of fear—

but because

I want you near.

---

⭐ (Pre-Chorus – offen, bekennend)

Take my doubt,

take my voice—

every step

is my own choice.

---

⭐ (Chorus – devot, aber selbstbestimmt)

I kneel because you tell me to,

I kneel because I want it too.

Give me orders,

give me fire—

your command

is my desire.

Hold me tight,

don’t let me go—

in chosen chains

I overflow.

Break me open,

make me feel—

I need this power

to be real.

---

(Verse 2 – tiefer, emotionaler)

Bind me in the silence

that only we can hear,

wrap your will around me—

I offer it

without a tear.

Guide my hands,

my mind,

my breath…

take the choices

from my chest.

Not to hurt,

not to control—

but to steady

my restless soul.

---

⭐ (Bridge – dunkle Hingabe, aber freiwillig und sicher)

Take every decision,

every weight I bear.

I lay my trust

in the strength

you wear.

I’m not broken—

I’m unbound.

You lift me higher

when I’m bowed down.

---

⭐ (Final Chorus – intensiver, aber sicher formuliert)

I kneel because you tell me to,

I kneel because I want it too.

Give me orders,

give me flame—

your voice

rewrites my name.

Hold me tighter,

don’t release—

in your hands

I find my peace.

Break me gently,

bend my will—

I want this power—

and I will.

---

(Outro – still, ergeben, selbst gewählt)

I kneel

not to be owned—

but to be seen.

Not to lose myself—

but to be whole

in you.
