Lyrics

I was dipped in stolen rites
Choked in salt, blind in white
They said it cleansed, but I just drowned
My soul screamed, never to be found
No child's cry should make a vow
To gods who never claimed me now
I spit the wine, I burn the thread
I rise tonight, baptized in red
You marked me once, but I erase
Your cross no longer owns this face
I care a sigil, black and free
This blood, this body belongs to me
Black water, take me
Wash the lie away
Unbaptize my skin
Let the shadows stay
Salt and smoke, I say goodbye
To every false and sacred tie
This is my voice, this is my flame
I was never theirs, I reclaim my name
Holy oil burned my skin
But I was born from rot within
Your heaven's light could never hold
The girl who kissed the dead and cold
I was meant for darker seas
For spells, for bones, for midnight keys
Not guilt, not fear, not empty hymns
I chant my truth with bloodied limbs
Undo your rites, unbind your claim
I walk no path that speaks your name
I choose the dark, the honest night
Where fire speaks and wrong feels right
{Chorus]
Black water, take me
Wash the lie away
Unbaptize my skin
Let the shadows stay
Salt and smoke, I say goodbye
To every false and sacred tie
This is my voice, this is my flame
I was never theirs, I reclaim my name
Undo your rites, unbind your claim
I walk no path that speaks your name
This is my rite, my voice, my vow
I strip the cross, I'm holy now
{Chorus]
Black water, take me
Wash the lie away
Unbaptize my skin
Let the shadows stay
Salt and smoke, I seal the night
Reborn in dark, adorned in spite
This is my voice, this is my flame
I was never yours, I reclaim my name
