[Verse 1] They said you’re broken, born in shame Marked you guilty, fed the blame Built their thrones on fear and dust Called it faith, demanded trust Told you kneel, stay small, obey Swallow heaven, fear the flame But every scar they tried to brand Was proof you were never theirs to command [Pre-Chorus] Yeah, you felt it crack inside That quiet voice they couldn’t silence [Chorus] They lied about you You were never weak Never damned, never incomplete You don’t need saving, don’t need a crown You rise on your own, you burn it down They lied about you Now hear this truth You are the fire, you are the proof [Verse 2] They sold you hell to rule your breath Kept you loyal with fear of death Drew the lines, wrote your fate Called it love, locked the gate But the spark they tried to kill Was older than their gods and wills You don’t answer to their throne Your power was always your own [Pre-Chorus] Every lie starts to unwind When you trust what’s yours to find [Chorus] They lied about you You were never weak Never damned, never incomplete You don’t need saving, don’t need a crown You rise on your own, you burn it down They lied about you Now hear this truth You are the fire, you are the proof [Bridge] (half-time → build) No chains, no debt, no sin to pay No voice above you gets to stay You were born awake, not born to kneel Your soul is real—your soul is real (drop instruments, one line) And you don’t need permission to feel alive [Final Chorus] (full power, gang vocals) They lied about you You were never lost Never owned, never the cost You don’t need heaven, don’t fear the fall You stand in truth, you stand in all They lied about you Now break it through You don’t manifest fate— Fate manifests YOU [Outro] Yeah… They lied. And you remembered.
