Daughter of Freedom

female vocals, deep, melodic, indie, dark, epic three part harmonies strings, cellos

[Verse 2]
So let it burn, the house of lies,
the borrowed faith, the alibis.
Let every altar lose its flame,
every false god lose my name.
Some things must die before release
I watched the old world fall to peace.

[Pre-Chorus]
No voice above me, no hand to guide,
no sacred law left at my side.
For the first time, with nothing left,
I heard my own heart beating back.

[Chorus]
I am learning the taste of freedom,
bitter as blood, bright as wine.
A thousand faces in the mirror,
and for once, every one is mine.
I can laugh, I can break, I can burn,
I can lose what I thought I’d learned.
No god will tell me what I am
I will become it by my own hand.

[Verse 3]
I found new colors in my skin,
new kinds of hunger stirring in.
A thousand feelings I had drowned
came rising when the chains fell down.
Grief tasted strange without the shame,
joy felt almost like a crime.

[Pre-Chorus]
No voice above me, no hand to guide,
no heaven waiting on the other side.
The silence does not frighten me
there is a world I have yet to see.

[Bridge]
Annihilation
of everything they made us be.
Redemption
not forgiveness, but release.
Creation
with empty hands, we build again.
Freedom
not a gift, but what begins.

I am not the vessel for their will.
If there are gods above us,
let them watch us choose ourselves.

We killed the life that wasn't ours
and found the soil beneath the scars.
No heaven opened. No angels came.
We struck the spark and fed the flame.

[Final Chorus]
Now I know the taste of freedom,
not as mercy, but as life.
A thousand faces in the mirror,
and I don't have to choose just one tonight.
I can love, I can rage, I can grieve,
I can take, I can give, I can leave.
No god will tell me what I am
I am the hand, I am the flame.

[Outro]
Annihilation, what had to die.
Redemption, what we left behind.
Creation, what we became.
Freedom, what we made...

[Verse 1] I learned to wear the face they chose, to bury what nobody knows. They gave me names, they gave me rules, called obedience something true. I watched my life become a role, while something restless filled my bones. [Verse 2] So let it burn, the house of lies, the borrowed faith, the alibis. Let every altar lose its flame, every false god lose my name. Some things must die before release I watched the old world fall to peace.
