Hey!

I think you could be running into a problem that could be solved by layering. I'm hearing that your lead is very upfront and exposed-- it's lacking space and depth, which is what you may be referring to as raw?

What can help is to simply add some additional layers to the lead that are slightly detuned and altered in some other way. This can create a bigger sound.

Think of a single vocalist singing the lead line. May not be very intense or large sounding. But add a couple of more people singing along with them, and the small changes in pitch and timbre from person to person creates a richer tone that provides depth and intensity. That's why a choir sounds freaking epic.

Same concept. You need to "widen" the pitch of your lead. Careful though, because too much can cause balance issues with your mix. Too much detuned can cause your lead (or any other element) to sit too far back in the mix.

Reverb and or chorus can also help to give similar effects.

Hope that helps!
