IGNITE (feat. SI:REN)

[Intro – minimal pulse, low synth, no drums] [VE:NOM – close, calm] I kept it quiet. [VE:NOM] Under my ribs. [SI:REN] Behind my eyes. [Both – low, almost whispered] We don’t explode. WE IGNITE ⸻ [Verse 1 – C# minor, restrained] [VE:NOM] I learned to dim it When rooms felt small Folded my fire Against the wall [SI:REN] You don’t lose power Just because you wait Some flames stay hidden Before they elevate [VE:NOM] I wore my silence Like it was gold [SI:REN] But silence burns When it gets too cold ⸻ [Pre-Chorus – tension lift, percussion building] [VE:NOM] Holding lightning In my hands [SI:REN] Didn’t know Where to land [VE:NOM] Every spark [SI:REN] Every scar [Both – building] Was building who we are ⸻ [Chorus 1 – still C# minor, contained power] [VE:NOM – lead] I don’t explode [SI:REN – harmony under] You don’t explode [VE:NOM] I ignite [SI:REN – harmony under] You ignite [Both] Slow burn Through the night I don’t break I refine I was built For this light ⸻ [Verse 2 – deeper, still minor] [SI:REN] You called it pressure I called it proof Heat reveals What’s true [VE:NOM] I stopped shrinking To fit the frame Stopped apologizing For my flame [SI:REN] You don’t lose fire Just because you pause [VE:NOM] Sometimes restraint Is strength because ⸻ [Pre-Chorus 2 – bigger build] [SI:REN] We were holding [VE:NOM] All that heat [SI:REN] Under skin [VE:NOM] Underneath [Both – rising] Now there’s nothing Left to hide ⸻ [BRIDGE – Strip back (minimalist drop section)] {Kick + deep bass only.} [VE:NOM – steady] I’m done dimming. [SI:REN – firm] I’m done hiding. [VE:NOM] I won’t shrink. [SI:REN] I won’t divide it. ⸻ [FINAL CHORUS – KEY FLIP TO C# MAJOR] [Everything widens. Pads open. Harmony lift.] [Both – strong unison] Now I ignite [Both – harmony bloom] Now I glow Light in my lungs Let it show [VE:NOM] I don’t shrink [SI:REN] I don’t fold [Both – wide, expansive] We step forward Take control [Both] Now I ignite Now I shine This is ours This is mine ⸻ [Outro – warm, sunrise energy] [SI:REN – soft smile in tone] You don’t have to explode. [VE:NOM – calm confidence] You just ignite. [Both] And let it rise. [Fade]
