AiM - First Night In The Pit (Remastered)

rap, Rap-metal / metalcore hybrid with dual male/female vocals; djent-leaning guitars locked to a stomping halftime groove, sub drops, and tight, syncopated drums, Verses spit rhythmic growls over chugging palm-mutes; pre-chorus climbs with tense toms and ambient lead guitar; chorus explodes with an anthemic clean topline, layered screams, and crowd gang shouts, Occasional glitch stops and bass drops hit key lines, ending on a massive breakdown fade, clean, female vocals, metalcore, metal

[Intro]
Lights hit
Breath sticks
Heart quick
(hey!)

[Verse 1]
Line at the door, black X on my wrist
Cheap ID, fake calm, iron in my fist
Bass in the bricks, floor shakes through my shoes
I’m a ghost at the gate, got nothing to lose

Shoved to the side, sweat, smoke in my lungs
Neon on the teeth, gold flash on the tongues
Eyes lock once, shot burns my throat
Voice in my skull say “jump, don’t choke” (go)

[Pre-Chorus]
Hands up, I don’t know the rules here
New blood, but I smell that fear
Crowd moves like a wave to the front line
Either stay at the wall or you cross that side

[Chorus]
First night in the pit, feel the floor cave in
Every scar I hid starts to crawl on my skin
I was dead in the day, now I’m born in this sound
If I fall tonight, pick me up, throw me back in the crowd

First night in the pit, hear the chaos sing
All the shame I dragged falls off like a ring
I was lost in my head, now I’m loud, unbound
If I break tonight, scream my name, spin me back around

[Verse 2]
[Male growls]
Boots to the dust when the circle splits wide
Someone grabs my hand, pulls me into the tide
Shoulder in my chest, teeth cut my lip
I taste rust, taste rush, taste every bad script

[Female clean + fry]
Laugh in my face, say “you’re in it now”
“Bend at the knees when the bodies collide”
“Keep your eyes up, breathe, don’t bow”
“Let the hate in your head be the fuel, not a guide” (woah)

[Pre-Chorus]
Hands up, I can feel the rules shift
New blood, but I ride that drift
Crowd moves like a storm through my fault lines
Didn’t come here to heal, but it rewrote my mind

First night in the pit, hear the chaos sing
All the shame I dragged falls off like a ring
I was lost in my head, now I’m loud, unbound
If I break tonight, scream my name, spin me back around

[Bridge]
[Growled call / clean response]
“Are you ready?”
(I don’t know, but I’m done being small)
“Will you bleed for it?”
(If it means I can finally feel at all)

“Are you living?”
(I was numb till I walked through this door)
“Then get in the middle”
(and leave my old life on the floor)

[Breakdown]
Floor shakes
Crowd quake
First taste
Heart awake (yeah)

First night in the pit, hear the chaos sing
All the shame I dragged falls off like a ring
I was lost in my head, now I’m loud, unbound
If I leave tonight, this place is my battleground
