[Intro]
House lights low
Heart rate high
Breath in static
I’m ready to fly (hey!)
[Verse 1]
Ran from myself for a decade straight
Took my doubt out on every mistake
Hid my name in the cracks of the floor
‘Til the floor gave way
I was done staying poor
Panic in my pocket
Pills in the sink
Smiled in the mirror
Couldn’t look
Couldn’t blink
Every “maybe later” turning into a cage
Now I’m done dying quiet at a minimum wage
[Pre-Chorus]
If this is all I get
I’m not saving a breath
If there’s a line to cross
I’m leaping to the edge
[Chorus]
I feel alive
Alive in all this noise
Every scar on my skin like a voice
Screaming “you made it
You made it”
Can’t fake it
My pulse in the chaos sings
I feel alive
Alive through everything
If the world’s gonna shake
Let it shake me awake
I feel alive
[Verse 2]
Tap in
Double-shot rush to the vein
Twenty-four
Seven
I was numbing the pain
Had a full inbox
Empty soul in my chest
Every like that I got just exposed me as less
Now I’m back with the backbone
Backbone steel
Every “too much” that they said
I reveal
Turned every late bill into late-night fire
Every side-eye look to a crowd that admires
[Pre-Chorus]
If this is all I get
I’m not saving a breath
If there’s a line to cross
I’m leaping off the edge (yeah)
[Chorus]
I feel alive
Alive in all this noise
Every scar on my skin like a voice
Screaming “you made it
You made it”
Can’t fake it
My pulse in the chaos sings
I feel alive
Alive through everything
If the world’s gonna shake
Let it shake me awake
I feel alive
[Bridge – Male]
Tell me
Is this what it means to stay?
Heart on the table
Not tucked away
Every tremor in my chest
That’s proof
I’d rather break than never know the truth
[Bridge – Female]
Boy
You’re burning like a sunrise late
Thought you’d drown
Now you’re bending the waves
You were breathing but you weren’t in your skin
Now you’re open
I can finally get in (woah)
[Chorus – Duet]
I feel alive
Alive in all this noise
(Do you hear it, hear it?)
Every scar on my skin like a voice
(Every mark is a choice)
Screaming “we made it
We made it”
Can’t fake it
Our pulse in the chaos sings
We feel alive
Alive through everything
If the world’s gonna shake
Let it shake us awake
We feel alive
[Outro – Female Response]
You feel alive
I feel you
Too
If this is the storm
I’ll stand in it with you (yeah)
