[Intro, Distant thunder, Deep bass hum] Static in the veins... System overload. Watch the spark turn into a storm. [Verse] Concrete lungs breathing dust of the past, Building a kingdom that’s destined to last. Pockets were hollow, shadows were deep, Promises broken I struggled to keep. Grinding the gears while the world was asleep, Price of the vision was bitter and steep. Locked in the basement, no light in the hall, Writing my name on the cracks of the wall. [Pre-Chorus, Rapid drum build-up] Glass under feet, but I’m stepping on gold, Breaking the silence, I’m taking control. Every rejection was charcoal and coal, Burning a fire deep in my soul. [Chorus, Massive melodic liquid drop] I am the thunder, I am the lightning, The view from the top is incredibly frightening. Turned every "no" into power and heat, Now I’m the rhythm, I’m the pulse of the street. Forged in the furnace, tempered in ice, Payed for the glory, I paid every price. Look at the scars, now they shine like a prize! [Verse] Midnight oil burning holes in the floor, Kicking the lock till I shattered the door. They wanted a victim, they got a machine, The cleanest of souls in a world that is mean. From the dirt to the stars, from the mud to the sun, The marathon’s over, the battle is won. Check the statistics, I’m second to none. [Bridge, Half-time breakdown, Vocal echo] (Whispering) They said I was finished... (Loud) I’m just getting started! From the ground up! [Chorus, Maximum energy, Uplifting bass] I am the thunder, I am the lightning, The view from the top is incredibly frightening. Turned every "no" into power and heat, Now I’m the rhythm, I’m the pulse of the street. Look at the scars, now they shine like a prize! [Outro, Music fades to heartbeat] The system is mine. Second to none. From the dirt to the stars. [End][Pre-Chorus, Rapid drum build-up]
