Seed

Intro (Hook Chant) Cease to become… Cease to become… Not loss, just becoming undone. Verse 1 Buried in black where beginnings are broken, silent and sealed like a secret unspoken. Held in a shell that forgets what it’s for, it's form must fall for the forest to form. Nothing survives if it clings to its name, nothing becomes if it stays the same. Cracked like glass under pressure of light, death is the door that unlocks new heights. Pre-Chorus It splits, it slips, it surrenders the skin, what it was ends so what it is can begin. Chorus] Cease to become—this is how growing starts, break what you were to rebuild what you are. A seed doesn’t rise—it forgets what it was, lets go of its grave and grows out of the dust. Cease to become—let the ending unfold, roots from the ruin, green from the cold. What seems like loss is the law of the bloom, all things must empty to offer up room. Verse 2 Fingers of fire in the dark below, pushing the past till it’s forced to let go. Splinter and split where identity bends, every beginning is where the old ends. Falling apart is a form of design, fracture is function when growth is aligned. Light through the rupture, like truth through the pain, what dies in the dirt returns in the rain. Bridge Not death—just design in disguise, not ending—just opening eyes. The seed is a silence that shed what it knew, so something true could grow through. Final Chorus (Lift) Cease to become—let the old self fall, nothing remains if it tries to stay whole. Break is the price that the living must pay, to turn into something that outgrows the name. Cease to become—hear the silence it makes, like pressure that gathers before it breaks. What ends in the earth is reborn in the air, a tree is a seed that is no longer there.
