Raw Self

[Intro] Dark veins pulse in the echo chamber of my skull I slam my fists against the walls of doubt A hurricane throat rattles the cages of my spine [Verse 1] I wear a mask of thunder, teeth bared to the world Shouting fire into the choke of ordinary days Beneath the skin, a riot gnaws at every breath I am not lucky, I am louder than my fear [Pre-Chorus] Rage climbs like a flame under cracked paint I am the gravity ripping at the seams [Chorus] Break the silence with a scream that shakes the night Pounding heart, primal roar, I claim my right Unbind these shackles of doubt and doubt of self I am the storm you can’t calm, I am raw self [Verse 2] Margins crumble as the truth breaks through the noise My hands write apologies in ashes of old lies Claw marks on the throat of every sweet compromise This is my rite, this is my war cry [Pre-Chorus] Rage climbs like a flame under cracked paint I am the gravity ripping at the seams [Chorus] Break the silence with a scream that shakes the night Pounding heart, primal roar, I claim my right Unbind these shackles of doubt and doubt of self I am the storm you can’t calm, I am raw self [Bridge] No prayer, no pact, just a brutal honest truth I crave the clash, the pain that teaches proof [Chorus] Break the silence with a scream that shakes the night Pounding heart, primal roar, I claim my right Unbind these shackles of doubt and doubt of self I am the storm you can’t calm, I am raw self [Outro] Let the thunder bleed through every fragile breath I rise, unbroken, from the wreckage of myself
