Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Hands on the frozen hilt Knuckles white Breath in the air Crowd holds its breath Waiting For a legend that isn’t there Whispers coil round my ankles “Boy You were never the one” Shadows lean in Laughing Blocking out the sun [Chorus] But this is my sword in the stone Every doubt Every ghost I’ve known You push me down I push back harder You already see how this story goes You feel the end in the marrow of your bones I’ll rise I’ll rise And wear that crown of armor [Verse 2] Weight like a world on the handle Cold steel glued to the rock Every pull feeds their power Every strain feeds their talk “Stay small Stay scared Stay silent” Voices spit ash in my ears Still There’s a fire beneath them Burning through the fear [Chorus] ‘Cause this is my sword in the stone Every doubt Every ghost I’ve known You push me down I push back harder You already see how this story goes You feel the end in the marrow of your bones I’ll rise I’ll rise And wear that crown of armor [Bridge] You tried to write the ending (hey!) Signed it in borrowed blood But I was forged in something You could never touch [Chorus] This is my sword in the stone Every doubt Every ghost I’ve known You push me down I push back harder You knew the truth as the cracks first showed You felt the shift as your dark tide slowed I rise I rise Now watch your kingdom falter [Chorus] This is my sword in the stone I lift it up And the whole sky glows You held me down I stand up taller (oh yeah) You always knew how the story goes You fall away as my true name’s told I rise I rise And walk out crowned in armor

rock, Epic folk-pop with male vocals, fingerpicked acoustic guitar and deep floor toms. Verses stay intimate and tense, close-mic’d, then the chorus explodes with big gang vocals, soaring strings and a pounding, roomy kick. Bridge adds hushed choir and low brass that swell into a triumphant final hook with shimmering cymbals and bold vocal ad-libs.
