ALIVE WITCH — NEW WORLD [INTRO — piano, dark and lonely] Sometimes it's hard to believe Sometimes it's hard to see the light When everything gets dark And the voices scream too loud at night But remember who you are Remember where you came from Remember who you were raised by And remember — you are not done [VERSE 1 — clean vocal, building] You were raised by fear Threatened by doubt Fed with lies Till you forgot what you were about They told you: "Stay small" They told you: "Don't try" They laughed when you dreamed They hoped you would die inside But every scar made me wiser Every laugh made my heart beat stronger Every voice that tried to break me Made the voice inside me louder [PRE-CHORUS — scream building] I HEARD IT WHISPER BENEATH THE NOISE BENEATH THE FEAR BENEATH THEIR VOICE "YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!" [CHORUS — HUGE, melodic + screams] I AM THE LIGHT I AM THE FIRE I RISE HIGHER AND HIGHER I AM THE LIGHT I AM THE FLAME YOU CAN SCREAM BUT YOU CAN'T CHANGE MY NAME I REMEMBER WHO I AM I REMEMBER WHO I WAS I REMEMBER WHAT I CAME FROM I AM THE LIGHT I AM THE FIRE I RISE HIGHER AND HIGHER [POST-CHORUS — growls] RISE! RISE! RISE ABOVE THE LIES! [VERSE 2 — heavier] The people who never believed in me Made me believe in me harder The ones who laughed at my dreams Only made my vision sharper Every "NO" became a "GO" Every wound became a weapon Every door that they closed Made me build another entrance You tried to bury my voice But you buried a monster You thought I would break But I came back stronger You wanted silence I became thunder You wanted darkness I became— [SCREAM] LIGHT! [CHORUS — repeat] I AM THE LIGHT I AM THE FIRE I RISE HIGHER AND HIGHER I AM THE LIGHT I AM THE FLAME YOU CAN SCREAM BUT YOU CAN'T CHANGE MY NAME I REMEMBER WHO I AM I REMEMBER WHO I WAS I REMEMBER WHAT I CAME FROM I AM THE LIGHT I AM THE FIRE I RISE HIGHER AND HIGHER [BREAKDOWN — piano + distorted bass, then growls] In this dark world In these dark times My light pisses off The ones who live in lies My light burns My light bites My light turns Their dark to white You hate my glow? THEN CLOSE YOUR EYES! [DEEP GROWL] YOU CAN'T KILL WHAT YOU DIDN'T CREATE. [BREAKDOWN — crushing] FEAR! DOUBT! LIES! I LEFT THEM ALL BEHIND! FEAR! DOUBT! LIES! I LEFT THEM ALL— BEHIND! [SCREAM] BEHIND! [BRIDGE — piano returns, emotional clean vocal] Sometimes it's hard to believe Sometimes it's hard to see But the light was never gone It was always inside of me I was looking for a savior I was waiting for a sign Then I looked into the darkness And finally saw mine No one came to save me So I learned to save myself No one gave me power So I built it from the hell [BUILD — increasingly aggressive] Now I know Now I see Now I know WHO I NEED TO BE I don't need their permission I don't need their praise I don't need their approval I don't need their chains [FINAL CHORUS — MASSIVE] I AM THE LIGHT I AM THE FIRE I RISE HIGHER AND HIGHER I AM THE LIGHT I AM THE FLAME YOU CAN SCREAM BUT YOU CAN'T CHANGE MY NAME I REMEMBER WHO I AM I REMEMBER WHO I WAS I REMEMBER WHAT I CAME FROM I AM THE LIGHT I AM THE FIRE I RISE HIGHER AND HIGHER [FINAL CHORUS — scream layered] I AM THE LIGHT! I AM THE FIRE! I RISE HIGHER! AND HIGHER! I AM THE LIGHT! I AM THE FLAME! YOU CAN SCREAM! BUT YOU CAN'T CHANGE MY NAME! [OUTRO — piano + distant scream] Now it's a new world. Not theirs. Mine. [DEEP GROWL] I WAS RAISED BY FEAR. I BECAME THE FIRE.
