(Intro – low, atmospheric, distant thunder)
Yeah…
You ever try to carry something you ain’t ready for?
Yeah…
Didn’t think so…
I was born in the cold where the silence is loud
Where the weak get buried and the strong stand proud
No crown, no throne, just dirt in my hands
Had to build my name, I don’t beg, I command
They talk about power like it’s given, not earned
Like the fire don’t scar when the whole world burns
I been walking through hell just to feel that spark
Now I carry that storm, yeah I live in the dark
Tried to lift what I thought I deserved at the time
But the hammer stayed still like it knew my mind
See it don’t move for pride, don’t budge for lies
Only rises for those who’ve been broken inside
Every scar got a story, every bruise got a name
Every loss in my life put a weight on the chain
Now I grip that handle with blood on my skin
If it rises tonight, then I earned what I’m in
Feel the weight of the hammer in my soul
Lightning in my veins, yeah it’s takin’ control
You can try, you can bleed, you can fight all night
But it won’t even move if you ain’t built right
Feel the weight—yeah it judges your name
Not the glory, not the fame, not the gold, not the chain
Only those who’ve been shattered can stand in the storm
If you carry that weight, then you’ve been reborn
I done stood in the fire with my back to the wind
Watched the ones I called brothers turn enemy quick
Seen loyalty die for a handful of lies
Now I trust what I build, not the look in your eyes
You ain’t felt that pressure, that crush in your chest
When the world says “you’re done” but you don’t get to rest
When the only way out is to carry that load
And the path that you walk is a blood-soaked road
I don’t pray for mercy, I don’t beg for grace
I just stare at the storm like “come take your place”
If the gods wanna test me, then let ‘em decide
I’ve been ready for war since the day that I tried
Every doubt that I had got buried in steel
Every weakness I showed got reforged to be real
Now the thunder don’t scare me, it answers my call
If I fall, I fall—but I’m takin’ it all
Feel the weight of the hammer in my soul
Lightning in my veins, yeah it’s takin’ control
You can try, you can bleed, you can fight all night
But it won’t even move if you ain’t built right
Feel the weight—yeah it judges your name
Not the glory, not the fame, not the gold, not the chain
Only those who’ve been shattered can stand in the storm
If you carry that weight, then you’ve been reborn
Bridge (slower, cinematic)
It don’t care who you were…
It only knows who you became…
Strip it all down—title, rank, name…
What’s left when the lightning calls your pain?
You ready?
…or you just talkin’?
I ain’t chosen by blood, I was chosen by fire
Every loss stacked up, took me higher and higher
They said “know your place,” I said “watch me ascend”
Now I stand where the broken and the gods both bend
This ain’t myth, this ain’t story, this is weight I hold
This is iron in my bones, this is heart turned gold
You can see it
