Rémi Du Chemin - Nerve Trigger Lyrics

[Intro]
Static in my head, frequencies of dread
Father's eyes forward, words left unsaid
Dignity like armor, they can't break through
Teaching me lessons that only silence knew

[Verse 1]
Voltage in my veins, building day by day
System wants submission, but I ain't gonna play
Swallowing their bullshit till my throat is raw
Every micro-cut bleeds beneath the law
Daddy stood so tall when they pulled him aside
Young eyes watching, learning how to swallow pride
Now I'm grown, carrying that weight in my spine
Walking that wire, that goddamn thin line

[Chorus]
Pressure building up, can you feel the spark?
Lightning in my bones, dancing in the dark
They want me to break, but I'm breaking free
This ain't submission, this is mastery
(This is mastery)

[Verse 2]
Every breath's mechanical, counting down to blast
Inherited silence screaming through my past
Code-switching tongues between French and Creole
Police radio static eating at my soul
They profile the surface but can't read my mind
Each heartbeat's a timer, ticking deep inside
Learned the art of patience from my father's grace
Now I wear that mask, but there's fire in this space

[Bridge]
Mon père, ton silence était une révolution
Now I'm turning pain into ammunition
System wants war but can't handle the truth
When pressure builds up, something's gotta shoot

[Verse 3]
Industrial rhythm matches blood flow
Building resistance with each blow
They call it peace when we just comply
But voltage builds when we pacify
Endurance ain't about taking shit
It's about choosing when to unleash it
Father taught me timing is the key
Now watch me detonate strategically

[Outro]
Static fades out but the message stays clear
Power in restraint until time to switch gears
Learned from the best how to wear this crown
Pressure builds up, but they can't break me down
(They can't break me down)
