Steel Remembers

V6

[Intro - soft synth, whispered, strong, calm, deep bass humming] I started hard in this world, you know... I fought to become the woman you see. No one decides what I love, how I breathe in a melody. [Verse 1 - rap, strong voice, grounded, felt, warm beat, soft pads] You can't melt steel with pretty words, I've heard that script, I've heard it all before. Your intention seems pure, it seems loving and true, You say you love the way I am, the way I move. [Beat switch - beat turns cold, stripped, empty, bass drops out, cold piano, voice still strong, not angry] Then one comment lands that don't fit your view, And you turn, you switch, you go cold, you go cruel. That turn has dampened me for weeks now, Dimmed my light, tried to shut my voice down. [Beat comes back - heavy bass returns, harder, voice rises, powerful] But I don't kneel, I don't fold, I don't break, I make my music to escape my chaos, that's my right, that's my stake. I feel other people's music, I comment with grace, You try to possess me, try to put me in my place. You loved me in public, you praised my light, Then you hated on others when no one was in sight. You vent your hate people with testosterone, and I'm the one who has to hear it, I'm not your stone. That was to press me down, You can't dethrone a queen who built her own crown. [Pre-Chorus - build up, voice rising, strong, riser, snare build, bass rising] I'm sensitive, yes, but don't mistake me, I'm forged in fire, you cannot shake me. You tried to bend me, you tried to break me, But steel remembers, and steel won't take it. [Chorus - HUGE EDM DROP, heavy bass, big, open, sung with power, felt] I'm free, I'm wild, I got love to give, But my heart you don't get if I have to beg to live. You say you love the way I lift, the way I spread, Then you hate on others, words you only said when no one else could hear, and I hear it all, You dump it on me, you make me feel small. That was to press me down, No, not anymore. [Verse 2 - rap, strong, steady, bass hits hard, voice felt, not mean] You said you felt my support, that I saw you for who you are, TRUE. I opened my heart to you and wanted to lift you up and you loved it, But you didn't want to share, didn't let me be who I am. Fucking unfair. My life was ruled, I feared that scent, Controlled and silenced, that's where my years went. But I found my friends, they lifted me high, I love their music, that's why I stay, that's why I fly. This is what you do when you're not even free, You try to rule me, try to discipline me. Your insecurity isn't in what I wear, It's in how you acted, left your territory everywhere. I don't say much, but today you lost it all, You tried to make me small, now watch me stand tall. [Bridge - beat almost gone, only voice and pad, low sub bass, voice strong and calm, not mean] I've marked my line now, call it defiance if you want, Call it fucking defiance, I don't care what you call it. No one here who shares their music should suffocate their voice, It should be free, that's our choice. [Final Chorus - warm and strong, then sung, bass back, powerful] So all my friends, I love your music, I support and I lift you if you need it. I'm gonna be who I am, and that has to be enough, No one can judge anyone, we're here for our music. So no one should be suffocated, Now this shit is over. [Outro - beat fades out, whispered, strong, last bass note, felt] I'm free. I'm wild. I'm still standing. [Sound effect: microphone drop hits floor, echo, silence]
