Spellbound - Lyrics in description

SpellBound *[Verse 1]* Tear down the veil, Reveal what's real, Head to the wind, Roots take hold. Face to the sun, I give what I gave, But I won't disappear In the grave I was made. Whispers in the morning, Spells in the night, I followed every shadow 'Til I found my own light. The world tried to name me, Tried to bury my truth, But something underneath me Still remembered its roots. *[Pre-Chorus]* Hear the earth beneath me, Hear it calling my name, Every scar is a story, Every ember's a flame. *[Chorus]* I rise like smoke, I rise from the ground, The chains fall away When I hear that sound. Drums in my blood, Fire in my veins, I danced with the darkness And walked out unchanged. No curse on my tongue, No fear in my bones, I took back the pieces They called not my own. Let the shadows retreat, Let the old ghosts release— I've got dirt on my feet And a wild heart beneath. *[Verse 2]* Life holds meaning, My eyes open wide, I stopped asking permission To stand on my side. The night knows my secrets, The moon knows my name, I've carried my sorrow And tempered it to flame. No disguise, No begging to stay, I won't make myself smaller To make fear go away. What broke me once Doesn't own me tonight, I learned how to bleed And still walk toward the light. *[Pre-Chorus]* Hear the earth beneath me, Hear it calling my name, Every scar is a story, Every ember's a flame. *[Chorus]* I rise like smoke, I rise from the ground, The chains fall away When I hear that sound. Drums in my blood, Fire in my veins, I danced with the darkness And walked out unchanged. No curse on my tongue, No fear in my bones, I took back the pieces They called not my own. Let the shadows retreat, Let the old ghosts release— I've got dirt on my feet And a wild heart beneath. *[Bridge — Shadow Gospel]* Oh, let them whisper, Let them speak my name. I have walked through the fire, I have slept beside the flame. Oh, let them judge me, Let them call me strange. I was never meant to fit Inside the cage they made. *[Breakdown]* My strength returns. My heart still beats. Drums in my blood. Dirt on my feet. My strength returns. My heart still beats. I am not the ashes— I am what they could not keep. *[Final Chorus]* I rise like smoke, I rise from the ground, No power above me, No power can bind me now. Drums in my blood, Fire in my veins, I walked through the darkness And came back changed. No curse on my tongue, No fear in my bones, I gathered my pieces And made them my own. Let the shadows retreat, Let the old ghosts release— I've got dirt on my feet And a wild heart beneath. *[Outro — whispered / layered]* Tear down the veil... Reveal what's real... Roots take hold... My heart still beats... Dirt on my feet. Fire in my veins. I rise.
