Beneath the Weight of God

[brutal heavy intro] ### [Verse 1] I felt the ceiling moving The night it learned my name Every shadow in the corner Pointed back to me again The walls began to narrow The air became a chain Every breath another anchor Every thought another grave ### [Pre-Chorus] How do I run From the thing That lives beneath my skin? ### [Chorus] Beneath the weight of God I am breaking Every bone inside my soul Awakening I have carried this burden Across every mile I've crossed Beneath the weight of God I am lost ### [Verse 2] The earth beneath me opened A mouth of stone and dust Filled with every promise Every failure and disgust I saw my younger self there Staring through the dark Holding all the pieces Of a long extinguished spark ### [Pre-Chorus] How do I save What remains When everything caves in? ### [Chorus] Beneath the weight of God I am breaking Every bone inside my soul Awakening I have carried this burden Across every mile I've crossed Beneath the weight of God I am lost ### [Breakdown] (crushing polymetric djent groove) PUSH DOWN PUSH DOWN PUSH DOWN PUSH DOWN Every dream Every wound Every lie Every truth Every love Every loss Every nail Every cross The pressure never leaves The pressure never stops The pressure never leaves The pressure never stops ### 🎸 [Guitar Solo] [Start with dissonant bends and chaotic rhythmic phrases.] [Transition into a soaring melodic lead that sounds like a desperate attempt to escape.] [End unresolved.] ### [Bridge] I screamed into the silence The silence screamed back I asked for mercy The sky went black I searched for meaning Inside the storm And found the thing That I had become ### [Final Chorus] Beneath the weight of God I am breaking Every bone inside my soul Awakening I have carried this burden Across every mile I've crossed Beneath the weight of God I am lost Beneath the weight of God I am breaking Beneath the weight of God Still shaking Beneath the weight of God Still carrying The weight
