[Intro] [Ear-splitting, high-speed engine-revving guitar riff fades in and builds, joined by bass and heavy drums. Amp hum and distant crowd roar audible. Riff repeats, growing louder. A single, raw guitar bend wails.] [Verse 1] Pressure drops, the light gets strange Dogs are hidin', fences bang Ain't no breeze, just a heavy hand Pressin' down across the land See that wire hummin' on the pole? Hear that rumble deep down in your soul? [Chorus] I am the thunder rollin' in your chest (Yo!) I am the downpour, put your faith to the test (No shelter now!) I am the fever burnin' through the wire Takin' back every spark, every bit of fire! (Yeah!) [Verse 2] Got a debt that's written in the rust Paid in iron, paid in dust Your quiet walls, your settled ground I'm the shakin' that'll bring 'em down A cold front with a scorchin' heart Come to tear your peaceful world apart [Chorus] I am the thunder rollin' in your chest (Hey!) I am the downpour, put your faith to the test (No shelter now!) I am the fever burnin' through the wire Takin' back every spark, every bit of fire! (C'mon!) [Guitar Solo] [Raw, explosive blues-rock solo over the driving rhythm. Starts with melodic, pentatonic phrases, builds with fast picking and aggressive string bends into a fiery, chaotic peak, then winds down to a few resonant, feedback-laden notes.] [Bridge] [Music drops to just bassline and sparse, tense drum hits. Vocal is low, intimate growl.] So you can bow your head, or you can stand tall The gate is swingin' open, that's the only call It ain't sorrow, it ain't a lie Just a different shade of sky So meet my eye... before you fall. [Chorus] I am the thunder rollin' in your chest! I am the downpour, put your faith to the test! (No! No shelter!) I am the fever burnin' through the wire! Takin' back every spark, every bit of fire! [Outro] [Full band kicks back in for a final, massive chorus run.] (I am the thunder!) Rollin' in! (I am the downpour!) Comin' in! (I am the fever!) Burn it down! Takin' it all back now!
