[Intro] I learned your list of enemies, I wore it like a crown; The choir felt like thunder, But it only drowned me out. Now the red EXIT’s preaching A truer kind of shout. [Build 1] They taught me who to fear in pews, and I drank in every word; Said my neighbor was the danger... that’s the sermon that I heard. Friends repeating hate like prayer, blessing wealth that bled the poor; Hands were raised but never helped... masks slipped at the door. I can’t unknow it anymore! [Drop 1] Unshackle me Truth in my veins... set me free The wolves were within Let me see, let me see (Unshackle me) [Verse] I was building fences out of scripture, Stones carved from someone’s pain. They preached 'love your neighbor,' while drafting lists of foes; Now I see the cracks in heaven, Where the light begins to pour Not demons at my doorway, Just neighbors I ignored. It’s not angels falling down, It’s the scaffold I built for war. [Breakdown] And I breathe again, In the space beyond the noise. The faith they forged in iron Can’t cage a living voice. No more holy crosshairs, No saints behind the screen Just people loving people, And everything between. [Build 2] The lie was born in hunger, Disguised as something pure. But I am not a weapon, And I’m not fighting anymore! Let the walls come down in thunder, Let the truth hit like a storm If freedom’s just awakening, Then I’m finally reborn! [Drop 2] (Chopped / Shouted) Unshackle me! Unshackle me! Truth in my veins... set me free! The wolves were within, the wolves were within! Unshackle me! Now I see! [Bridge] I am not your soldier hymn, Not your market’s holy war; If you script a fear for masses, I won’t read it anymore. My neighbor isn’t enemy The wolves were at my door. [Final Drop] Unshackle me! Unshackle me! Let me breathe! Let me see! The wolves were within... they’re leaving me! Unshackle me! Woke without fear!
