Voodoo

(Low toms, distant chants, breath close to the mic) Wake it up… Don’t fight it… You’ve been knocking at the door all night. ⸻ Verse 1 I feel it humming in my chest Like a truth I never said Every step I try to take Pulls me closer to the edge Shadow hands around my throat Not to kill me—just to show Every rule I ever knew Was a lie I learned to hold ⸻ Pre-Chorus Hands in the fire, don’t blink now You don’t pray when the lights go out Heart starts beating out of line This ain’t fate—it’s a choice you make ⸻ Chorus Say it out loud, let it move you Break the spell you were born into Mind goes dark, body true This ain’t voodoo— It’s you Say it again, feel it breaking Every fear that you’ve been faking Blood and bone, breaking through This ain’t voodoo— It’s you ⸻ Post-Chorus Chant Hey—hey— Wake it up Hey—hey— Wake it up ⸻ Verse 2 I don’t whisper, I don’t beg I don’t crawl back from the ledge I just listen when it speaks And it never says repent Every scar I tried to hide Starts to feel like armor now Every voice that said “behave” Isn’t talking to me now ⸻ Pre-Chorus Hands in the fire, no way out Truth tastes better when it’s loud You don’t run when the walls fall down You stand still and you let it pound ⸻ Chorus Say it out loud, let it move you Break the spell you were born into Mind goes dark, body true This ain’t voodoo— It’s you Say it again, feel it shaking Every chain that you’ve been dragging Blood and bone, breaking through This ain’t voodoo— It’s you ⸻ Ritual Break / Drop (Drums only. Call-and-response vocals.) Wake it up —WAKE IT UP— Wake it up —WAKE IT UP— (Guitars slam back in) ⸻ Bridge (Half-Time / Menacing) You fed the fear You drew the line You lit the match You crossed this side No saints here No alibis You feel alive For the first time ⸻ Final Chorus (BIGGER / GANG VOCALS) Say it out loud, let it move you No more masks, no more truthless Mind goes dark, body true This ain’t voodoo— It’s you Say it again, hear the thunder Feel the ground split from under Blood and bone, breaking through This ain’t voodoo— It’s you ⸻ Outro (Spoken / Fading) You were never cursed. You were never controlled. You just finally listened… To what was already yours. (Drums fade. One last low chant.) Wake it up.
