[Verse 1]
I crawled through noise to find my name
Built from silence, stitched in flame
I lost my way in neon haze
But found my truth in shadowed days
[Verse 2]
I broke the loop, I cracked the code
I shed the skin that never showed
I’m not the man they tried to mold
I’m the story I now hold
[Pre-Chorus]
This isn’t the end
It’s the start I choose
This isn’t the end
It’s the start I choose
This isn’t the end
It’s the start I choose
[Chorus]
Life: the start
Not the echo, not the part
Where I fade into the stream
But the scream inside the dream
Life: the start
Where I bleed and still believe
[SOLO]
[Verse 3]
I saw the wreckage, called it mine
Then built a rhythm out of spine
I danced on ruins, kissed the ash
And lit my soul with every clash
[Verse 4]
I’m not afraid to feel the burn
I’m not too late, I just return
I’m not a glitch, I’m not a ghost
I’m the fire they feared the most
[Pre-Chorus]
This isn’t the end
It’s the start I choose
This isn’t the end
It’s the start I choose
This isn’t the end
It’s the start I choose
[Chorus]
Life: the start
Not the echo, not the part
Where I fade into the stream
But the scream inside the dream
Life: the start
Where I bleed and still believe
[Verse 5]
I held the hands of those who fell
And rose with them from private hell
We are the choir of broken light
Singing truth into the night
[Pre-Chorus]
This isn’t the end
It’s the start I choose
This isn’t the end
It’s the start I choose
This isn’t the end
It’s the start I choose
[Chorus]
Life: the start
Not the echo, not the part
Where I fade into the stream
But the scream inside the dream
Life: the start
Where I bleed and still believe

Life! The start!
Life! The start!
We rise! We burn!
We scream! We learn!
Life! The start!
