[Verse 1] I never dreamed of sitting on a throne Or telling broken souls where they belong I only wanted hands that didn’t shake And strangers finding warmth when hearts would ache This earth was wider before the walls went up Before we drowned our mercy in a cup of guilt We traded kindness for a crown of rust And let warm blood run cold beneath the dust [Pre-Chorus] We move so fast that we forgot the way Connected by wires, dying anyway [Chorus] We were not born to live in chains Or fan the flames of borrowed hate There’s still a light beneath the scars Still something human in our hearts Stand up before the silence wins Before our souls forget they live If hope still burns inside us all Then maybe we are not too far gone [Verse 2] The screens glow blue in hollow rooms at night While frightened men rewrite what’s wrong and right They sell us enemies, they draw the lines Then send us marching underneath their signs But no machine can taste a mother’s tear No iron law can kill what we hold dear And every child who reaches out for peace Reminds the world that healing still exists [Pre-Chorus] We learned to build, but never learned to care So much noise… and no one really there [Chorus] We were not born to live in chains Or fan the flames of borrowed hate There’s still a light beneath the scars Still something human in our hearts Stand up before the silence wins Before our souls forget they live If hope still burns inside us all Then maybe we are not too far gone [Bridge] No king, no flag, no voice above the rest Can steal the hunger beating in our chest The power was never in their hands It sleeps inside the ordinary man And if we rise instead of kneel If we remember how to feel The longest night will crack and break And dawn will bleed through all the gray [Final Chorus] We were not born to disappear Or trade our lives for manufactured fear The world is wounded, not yet dead And every heart still gets to choose instead So raise your voice against the storm Don’t let the cold become the norm Hand in hand, beyond the dark We’ll build tomorrow from the sparks [Outro] Not machines… Not shadows… Still human. Still alive.
