Lyrics: ESSE VEL NON ESSE? (To be or not to be?)

Esse vel non esse? (To be or not to be?)

[Choir: ]
Esse vel non esse? (To be or not to be?)
Quid debeo deponere? (What must I lay down to be?)

[VERSE I]
There’s a moment before thought takes shape,
where the mind stands naked to itself.
Not asking what I hunger for,
but what I’ll place upon the inner shelf.

Every choice rewrites the map within,
each loss a doorway I must reassess.
So I face the quiet truth of change,
and weigh the cost of consciousness.

[ Choir:]
Esse vel non esse? (To be or not to be?)
Quid debeo deponere? (What must I lay down to be?)

[VERSE II]
I’ve fought the parts of me I feared,
until the fear grew tired of its claim.
The mind adapts to every wound,
reshaping meaning so it’s not the same.

Old enemies became reflections,
mirrors showing what I failed to see.
They lost their power when I learned
they were fragments of the larger me.

[Choir:]
Esse vel non esse? (To be or not to be?)
Quid debeo deponere? (What must I lay down to be?)

[VERSE III]
I need new battles—
not for war, but for the mind to stretch.
The psyche grows where pressure lives,
where comfort ends and doubts connect.

To evolve is to outgrow the cage
that once felt safe in its emptiness.
If rising means releasing more,
then let me rise through nothingness.

[ Choir: ]
Esse vel non esse? (To be or not to be?)
Quid debeo deponere? (What must I lay down to be?)
Cor meum ferrum fuisse (My heart has become iron)
Perdite ut renascere (Lose so that I may rise again)

[REFRAIN]
I stand on the edge of who I was,
and the edge keeps calling me back.
Break it down — break it down — break it down,
before the past turns black.

I’m not asking what I want,
I’m asking what I’ll bleed to be.
Burn it down — burn it down — burn it down,
’til the truth cuts free.

[Choir: ]
Esse vel non esse? (To be or not to be?)
Quid amittere necesse (What must I lose, necessarily)
Ignis revelat me esse (The fire reveals who I am)
Umbra vocat ad esse (The shadow calls me to be)

Esse! Non esse!
(To be! Not to be!)

Sum quod elegi esse
(I am what I chose to be)
