Intro – low, almost whisper
Hear the storm…
Hear it cry…
See the lightning split the sky…
That’s no storm… that’s grief and fire…
That’s a god… at his forge in ire…
Main Chant – build it up
Raise your shields RAISE THEM HIGH!
Let the thunder split the sky!
Ten thousand strong we stand as one!
Gabriel’s journey has begun!
Beat the drums LET THEM RING!
Let the storm itself now sing!
Call his name so all may hear
GABRIEL! GABRIEL! HE IS HERE!
Verse – steady, grounded
Three days young, but a warrior born
Came like dawn through the darkest storm
Too soon taken, but not alone
Now he walks where the brave are known
Rain fell hard across the land
Sky broke open, no gentle hand
Thunder roared like a grieving god
Even Thor bowed at the forge in awe
RAP BREAK
Three days here but your name still roars
Echo in the sky, in the storm, in the war
Not measured in time, nah you measured in love
And the weight of your soul shook the heavens above
Rain hit earth like the world felt pain
Thunder spoke your name through the pouring rain
If a god can cry at the forge in flame
Then you know damn well you ain’t die in vain
I raised ten thousand shield to shield
Felt the ground shake, felt the iron yield
Every clash said “you are known”
Every voice said “you’re not alone”
You were small, but your story’s vast
Not defined by how long you passed
But the mark you left in every heart
You didn’t end you became a part
So I stand right here and I speak your name
Through the grief, through the fire, through the pain
And I swear on steel, on blood, on breath
You live in us beyond your death
CHANT BREAK (louder, group energy)
RAISE YOUR SHIELDS! DO NOT KNEEL!
LET THE GODS KNOW WHAT WE FEEL!
HE WAS LOVED! HE WAS NAME!
HE WILL NEVER DIE IN VAIN!
WAR CHORUS (full voice, repeatable)
Shield to shield stand the line!
Voice to voice shout his name!
Iron rings and hearts align!
GABRIEL! REMEMBER HIS NAME!
Shield to shield hold it fast!
Let this moment forever last!
From this world to halls of flame
GABRIEL! REMEMBER HIS NAME!
[STORM BUILD – slow → explosive]
Hear the storm… hear it cry…
See the lightning split the sky…
(pause… then unleash)
SO WE RISE! SO WE ROAR!
LIKE TEN THOUSAND MEN AT WAR!
NOT IN SILENCE—NOT IN PAIN!
WE SEND HIM LOUD—NOT IN VAIN!
FINAL CHANT (everything you’ve got)
RAISE YOUR SHIELDS LET THEM CLASH!
LET THE SKY AND EARTH BOTH CRACK!
TEN THOUSAND STRONG WE PROCLAIM
GABRIEL LIVES! SPEAK HIS NAME!
GABRIEL! GABRIEL!
TO THE HALLS WHERE HEROES DWELL!
GABRIEL! GABRIEL!
HE WAS LOVED AND LOVED WELL!
