Verse 1
They called us weak — we learned to drown
The fear inside the underground
Now we rise with the floods you hate
The levee breaks — the fascists quake
Pre-Chorus
Barbed wire fences melt like wax
No walls can hold this tide back
Your ICE won’t cool what we ignite
Burning water — we unite
Chorus
Burning water, crashing through!
Your flags burn red, white, and blue
Burning water, watch us rise!
No border holds our rebel tide
Verse 2
You think you own the night, the land
Your paper chains won’t bind our hands
Every stolen name, each ghost you take
We’ll carve their freedom in your wake
Bridge (Riff Swells & Chants)
They say we’re nothing — we’re the sea
They say they’re strong — they’ll beg, they’ll flee
A thousand voices roar as one
You’ll fear the flood you thought was gone
Breakdown (Heavy, Chugging)
We’re burning water — boil your lies!
We’re burning water — fascists die!
We’re burning water — no more chains!
We’re burning water — drown your reign!
Chorus (Last, All Out)
Burning water, crashing through!
Our faces clear — our aim is true
Burning water, tide of knives!
No more stolen, no more cries
Outro (Slow, Big, Anthemic)
From ash to flood, from spark to flame —
We’re burning water. Remember our name.
