## Backstory

The song "Scream" is a raw and emotional ballad about letting go of all the pent-up anger, frustration, and pain that has been building up inside of you. It is a song about catharsis, about finding the strength to break free from the chains that are holding you back, and finally allowing yourself to be heard.

The song's backstory is a personal one for the singer, who wrote it as a way to process their own experiences with trauma and abuse. They had spent years suppressing their emotions, but eventually, the pain became too much to bear. They needed to find a way to release it all, and so they wrote "Scream."

The song has resonated with many listeners who have also experienced trauma and abuse. It has become a source of strength and comfort for those who feel lost and alone.

In addition to its personal backstory, "Scream" is also a song about the broader social and political climate. The singer wrote it during a time of great upheaval and unrest, and they felt that there was a lot of anger and frustration building up in the world. They wanted to write a song that would give people a voice, and that would help them to feel less alone.

"Scream" is a powerful and moving song that speaks to the universal human experience of pain, anger, and catharsis. It is a song for anyone who has ever felt like they need to scream, and it is a reminder that we are all in this together.

## Lyrics

(Verse 1)

In the silence of the night, I lay awake

Thoughts are swirling in my mind, like a hurricane

I've been holding back the storm, deep inside of me

But tonight, I'm gonna break free

(Pre-Chorus)

There's a fire in my soul, a volcano ready to blow

I can't keep it in, it's time to let it go

(Chorus)

I wanna scream, let it all out

Shout it to the world, without a doubt

This is who I am, I won't hide

I wanna scream, let the pain subside

(Verse 2)

In a world that tries to cage my every dream

I've been playing by the rules, it's not what it seems

But I won't be a prisoner of my own design

I'll break these chains, leave them all behind

(Pre-Chorus)

There's a fire in my soul, a volcano ready to blow

I can't keep it in, it's time to let it go

(Chorus)

I wanna scream, let it all out

Shout it to the world, without a doubt

This is who I am, I won't hide

I wanna scream, let the pain subside

(Bridge)

I'll climb the highest mountain, let the world see

The strength that's been hiding deep inside of me

I'll face my fears, no more holding back

I'll scream it out, and I won't crack

(Chorus)

I wanna scream, let it all out

Shout it to the world, without a doubt

This is who I am, I won't hide

I wanna scream, let the pain subside

(Outro)

I'll let it all out, no more disguise

I'll scream it from the mountaintops, reach for the skies

This is my moment, I'll make it count

I'll scream it out, there's no more doubt
