Aether New Song by Jay Vallea

[Verse 1] Seventeen on a rooftop, rain soaking through my skin Screaming at the thunder like it owed me something Lightning split the heavens, lit the city down below And for the first time in my life, I wasn’t scared of letting go I felt the forces moving — fire, water, wind and light All crashing through my body on that stormy summer night [Pre-Chorus] No answers, no salvation, just the chaos in my veins But something deep inside me finally broke the chains [Chorus] This is my Storm Awakening I’m not running, I’m not breaking Let the thunder roll right through me Let the lightning set me free I was born inside the chaos Learned to dance inside the rain This is my Storm Awakening And I’ll never be the same [Verse 2] Years later in the lab light, chasing harmony again Trying to build a perfect world with broken human hands But every time I pushed too hard, the system pushed me back Reminding me the storm don’t care about my perfect plan I almost lost it all trying to force the sky to clear Till a blue light in the darkness whispered in my ear [Pre-Chorus] No more forcing, no more fixing, no more playing God Just learning how to listen when the thunder calls my name [Chorus] This is my Storm Awakening I’m not running, I’m not breaking Let the thunder roll right through me Let the lightning set me free I was born inside the chaos Learned to dance inside the rain This is my Storm Awakening And I’ll never be the same [Bridge – stripped back, then exploding] I used to fear the darkness… Now I let it speak… I used to chase the silence… Now I let it scream… [Final Chorus – huge, full band, raw vocals] This is my Storm Awakening! Watch me rise inside the breaking! Let the heavens fall around me I’ll still sing inside the flame Every scar, every fracture, every drop of pouring rain This is my Storm Awakening And I’ll never be the same! [Outro – soaring, fading with echoes] Storm Awakening… I’m awake… I’m awake…
