[Intro] Hear the gravel in the spirit Hear the footsteps on the skull of fear I didn’t come for mercy I didn’t come to disappear There’s a fire building rhythm There’s a song under the skin If you want to feel something real Then let it begin [Verse] I dragged silence through the dirt and dared it to speak Held my breath until the edges turned bleak Everyone wants the burn without the flame Wants the power without the shame But I’ve tasted the spark that refuses to fade And I’ll tear through the dark to reclaim what I made [Chorus] Black ember choir in my lungs Every scream a living tongue I don’t sing for peace or grace I sing to shake this place If the world wants quiet—too late I came to detonate [Verse] I’ve been patient like stone under waves Worn down slow in invisible graves But pressure carves more than time ever could And I refused to be misunderstood This voice is a hammer This breath is a strike If this is the moment— Then watch me ignite [Guitar Solo] Staccato hammering rhythm → feedback squeal → sudden divebomb → chaotic end cutoff [Chorus] Black ember choir in my lungs Every scream a living tongue I don’t sing for peace or grace I sing to shake this place If the world wants quiet—too late I came to detonate [Bridge] Don’t ask me to soften or swallow this flame Don’t paint over fire and call it tame What you hear is truth with its teeth bared clear What you feel is everything you hid from fear [Chorus] Black ember choir in my lungs Every scream a living tongue I don’t sing for peace or grace I sing to shake this place If the world wants quiet—too late I came to detonate [Outro] Step back Or stand with me But don’t pretend You don’t hear the heat The ember choir isn’t done It just learned how to speak
