FATAL CONCEIT - I RISE

GET STOKED because #iRise is a fiery banger with a nasty attitude by #ShreditorInChief, Timothy Martuch (ASCAP). There's something of a story behind what this song is about, if you're interested, maybe the #Shreditor can put together a video about it.Show more

Now for some history:: This song began on November 28th of 2016, as a riff that Tim presented to a bandmate in The Runarounds. It was originally intended to be written as something of any anthem and was aptly named by the bandmate "F*** Yeah."

Because the content presented by the former bandmate didn't particularly resonate with the riff's composer, Tim decided he'd keep the riff from the unfinished song when The Runarounds stopped working together on new music.

Fast forward nearly 3 years, to November 16th, 2019. This is when Tim began work on the song as it exists today. This process was more passive the most of Tim's work. Periodically adding to the instrumental. By the time the lyrics were started, on February of 2020, the instrumental has been finished for about a month.

I RISE:

I still see your face
with haunting clarity
A ghost inside my house of constant tragedy

But soon will come a day
Defiant souls remade
Reanimate my heart inside this shell I've made

[[BREAK! BREAK FROM MY CHAINS
PUSH THROUGH ALL THE PAIN]]

Bring your flood [I rise]
Go for blood [I rise]
You can damn me straight to hell [I rise]
but my storm you cannot quell [I rise]

I RISE

You were just a snake
That I couldn't shake
Never satisfied by what you took from me

Today is a new day
And I must breakaway
I can see the light through all the pouring rain

[[BREAK! BREAK FROM MY CHAINS
EMBRACING ALL MY RAGE]]

Bring your flood [I rise]
Go for blood [I rise]
You can damn me straight to hell [I rise]
but my storm you cannot quell [I rise]

I RISE
