Story Behind The Song

The Awakening tells a deeply personal story of emotional clarity after a period of disconnection. The song captures the moment when someone realizes they've been surviving instead of living -- moving through relationships, routines, and expectations without truly feeling present. There's a quiet heaviness at the start, a sense of being emotionally asleep while still going through the motions. As the song unfolds, awareness begins to rise. The lyrics reflect vulnerability, self-reflection, and the courage it takes to confront what's been ignored. This isn't a dramatic transformation -- it's a soulful, internal shift where honesty replaces numbness. By the end, The Awakening becomes a statement of emotional strength. It's about choosing to feel again, to heal, and to step into a more authentic version of yourself -- even when it's uncomfortable.

Lyrics

Lies contrived manipulations
Reality electrochemical combinations
Consciousness hijacked by abominations
The world it seems s o cruel
We've been held from the truth
Things are not what they seem
We've been trapped i n a dream
Feel compelled to heed the profit
Now sustained o n vile lies
Had a shiny gem but lost it
Sovereignty now euthanized
Fear the mana for the mislead
I n the darkness they consume
Truths distorted t o b e misread
And a hateful flower blooms
Roots o f filth contempt corruption
Brings the demons near and far
See them wallow in their droppings
Like the true pigs that they are
While they gorge on blood soaked profits
And find delight i n the painful cries
Every moral line they've crossed it
As they hope the light within you dies
A people blinded b y their greed
Sharpen the blade that makes them bleed
Garden overgrown with noxious weeds
Their own hands planting the seeds
Humanity will rise
Humanity will rise
Now we see their disguise
Now we see through their lies
A people no longer blinded by your greed
Healing the wounds that made them bleed
Cutting out the noxious weeds
Their own minds planting new seeds
A new era now unfolding
A golden age approaching fast
Feel your frequency aligning
Shedding all that was the past
No more fear just inspiration
Our true power we now find
The only thing we need to conquer
I s control of our own mind
Find the god that lies within you
Unburdoned by arconic lies
Light the way to save the masses
As the old structure dies
No more confused contortions
No more insanity
Soon we get t o witness
A new age for humanity
