NO GRAVE HOLDS ME”

Dig the hole…

I’ll crawl out screaming.

I’ve been chewing on glass just to feel something real

Spine bent backwards, taught myself how to kneel

Every word you said was a fucking lie

Built this hell with my bare hands, now watch me survive

They fed me shame, dressed it up as love

Choked on my name, said I wasn’t enough

I carried the dead weight, I swallowed the blame

Now I’m done being quiet—I’m done being tame

You want blood?

You got it.

I’ve been bleeding since birth.

I’M DEAD BUT DREAMING

TEETH IN THE DIRT

CHEST STILL MOVING

MADE OF THE HURT

BURIED ALIVE

BUT I BITE THROUGH THE GROUND

YOU CAN’T KILL WHAT WAS

BORN TO DROWN

I’M DEAD BUT DREAMING

HEART FULL OF ROT

NO GRAVE HOLDS ME

I WON’T FUCKING STOP

Talk shit, hide hands, point fingers instead

Funny how you pray when you want me dead

You want a villain? I’ll wear it proud

Built from the screams you tried to drown out

I kept the fire when the lights went black

Ate every loss, never asked for it back

If suffering’s currency, I’m rich in scars

Still swinging fists at the face of God

I was broken down

To the bone

Now I weaponized it

I’M DEAD BUT DREAMING

TEETH IN THE DIRT

CHEST STILL MOVING

MADE OF THE HURT

BURIED ALIVE

BUT I BITE THROUGH THE GROUND

YOU CAN’T KILL WHAT WAS

BORN TO DROWN

(EMPTY EVERYTHING)

KNEES IN THE MUD

TEETH FUCKING GRIT

I LEARNED HOW TO LIVE

BY EATING THE SHIT

YOU PUT ME IN THE GROUND

I LEARNED HOW TO GROW

FROM A FUCKING GRAVE

WATCH ME FUCKING GO

NO—

GRAVE—

HOLDS—

ME.

DIG

DEEPER

I don’t need saving

I don’t need light

I made a home

In the endless night

(beat pause)

I’M DEAD BUT DREAMING

STILL HERE, STILL ME

BUILT FROM PAIN

AND FUCKING DEFEAT

YOU CAN PRAY FOR MY FALL

CARVE MY NAME IN STONE

I DIED INSIDE—

NOW LEAVE ME ALONE

Dead…

But breathing.

Dreaming…

Through the violence.
