Where is no sand
By Thunder eyes
**[INTRO — BASS + SCRATCH + GUITAR]**
*
**(Verse 1 — RAP DELIVERY)**
They draw the lines, tell me where to stand,
Build their whole world out of grains of sand.
Tell me what I am, tell me what I'll be,
But you don't get to make that choice for me.
Take a little, then you come for more,
Keep pushing me back like you've done before.
You want control, you want the upper hand,
But I won't let you bury me in sand.
**[BUILD — GUITAR + DRUMS]**
*Guitar chugs harder.*
*Bass locks with the kick.*
*Scratch cuts between beats.*
**(Chorus — BIG VOCAL)**
Written in the sand, but we won't disappear,
It reaches for us, but we're still standing here.
I can't help what I am,
But I can choose what I become.
Don't let the sand take away
What you never had to give.
We are more important than the sand,
We are more important than the sand.
We are! We are!
We are! We are!
More important than the sand!
**[BREAK — HEAVY RIFF]**
*Guitar chugs.*
*Bass punches underneath.*
*Drums hit in short bursts.*
*SCRATCH — STOP.*
**(Verse 2 — RAP DELIVERY)**
You build your rules, then you call them the way,
Expecting everybody to obey.
Try to hold what you can't control,
But you won't decide where I'm gonna go.
What I become is mine to decide,
Nobody gets to choose my side.
Build your world from sand if you can,
I'll keep moving with my own plans.
**[CHORUS — FULL BAND]**
Written in the sand, but we won't disappear,
It reaches for us, but we're still standing here.
I can't help what I am,
But I can choose what I become.
Don't let the sand take away
What you never had to give.
We are more important than the sand,
We are more important than the sand.
We are! We are!
We are! We are!
More important than the sand!
**[HEAVY BREAKDOWN]**
*Guitar drops into a brutal low riff.*
*Bass follows every hit.*
*Drums pound hard.*
You want to pull me down?
**NO!**
You want to take control?
**NO!**
You want to tell me who I am?
**NO!**
*SCRATCH — GUITAR SLAM.*
**[HEAVY GUITAR SOLO]**
*Distorted guitar tears into a fast, aggressive solo.*
*Bass and drums drive underneath.*
*Scratch effects cut through the solo.*
*Final guitar hit.*
**(Bridge — RAP INTO SHOUT)**
We don't want to be suffocated
By everything that you created.
We won't be pushed aside
Just because our colour doesn't fit your side.
You point one finger, but forget the past,
You pick one colour and make the judgement last.
History has more than one page to read,
Don't blame the many for what the few did wrong.
If you label me the devil,
If you call me something I don't understand,
I'm not your worthless snake,
I'm not a weapon in your hands.
So where do we stand
When you try to divide the land?
**WE ARE!**
**WE ARE!**
**MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE SAND!**
**[FINAL CHORUS — MAXIMUM ENERGY]**
Written in the sand, but we won't disappear,
It reaches for us, but we're still standing here.
I can't help what I am,
But I can choose what I become.
Don't let the sand take away
What you never had to give.
We are more important than the sand,
We are more important than the sand.
We are! We are!
We are! We are!
We are! We are!
More important than the sand!
