[Verse 1] Born in the glow of the screens and the static Chasing that status, addicted to addicts Scroll till I’m numb, every thumb like a habit Soul on silent, but my mind still manic Felt like a king in a kingdom of data Followers, dollars, but I’m hollow on the beta Mirror on the wall said, “You faker than your avatar” Running from the questions in a self-driving car Then I hit that wall Blue light, black hole, free fall Thought I had the codes, had the plan, had the price But I couldn’t buy peace, couldn’t purchase life [Chorus] You cut through the noise, my Jesus Over the hum of a world that deceives us Every empty crown fell down at Your name You burned my chains in a holy flame This is the meaning I was dying to find You rewrote the code in my heart and my mind From ashes to glory, You opened my eyes I found life I found life in Christ [Verse 2] I was tuned to the trends, to the clicks, to the chatter (yeah) Heard Your word slice through all the clatter (hey!) Voice like thunder in a steel-gray sky “Son, you are known, you are mine, that’s why” Cross on the hill like a signal through the smog Blood on the beam, cut clearer than a vlog You stepped in my place, took blame, took scars So I don’t have to bow to these counterfeit stars Now my heart beats hope like a war drum pounding Grace so deep got the proud ones drowning Past on mute, futures screaming Your praise Every step lit up by amazing grace [Chorus] You cut through the noise, my Jesus Over the hum of a world that deceives us Every empty crown fell down at Your name You burned my chains in a holy flame This is the meaning I was dying to find You rewrote the code in my heart and my mind From ashes to glory, You opened my eyes I found life I found life in Christ [Bridge] Not success, not the thrill, not the numbers on a screen Not the cold approval of a digital machine It’s Your nail-scarred hands, pulling me from the fire Perfect love’s the only thing my soul desires (yeah) When the towers fall, when the systems crash Your kingdom stands, unshaken by the blast From the rubble of my pride, I rise and sing You’re the truth, You’re the way, You’re my everything [Chorus] You cut through the noise, my Jesus Over the hum of a world that deceives us Every empty crown fell down at Your name You burned my chains in a holy flame This is the meaning I was dying to find You rewrote the code in my heart and my mind From ashes to glory, You opened my eyes I found life I found life in Christ (oh yeah) I found life in Christ
