[Verse 1]
I woke with iron in my jaw
A black mark under my skin
Fear came first to test my hands
Then anger let the devil in
He wore my face in the glass
Smiled like he knew my name
I held my breath, I held my nerve
But something deeper called the flame
[Pre-Chorus]
If I shake, I won’t break
If I fall, I get up
I got a pulse in my palms
And a fire in my blood
[Chorus]
God sword, cut me clean
God sword, make me seen
Devil run, powers rise
Fear don’t live in these eyes
God sword, in my hand (in my hand)
God sword, make your stand (make your stand)
[Verse 2]
He threw stones in my sleep
Whispers crawling through the wall
Anger knocked like a storm at dawn
Said, “You either stand or fall”
I saw the wolf in my chest
I saw the light bite back
Every scar got a voice tonight
And every wound learned how to attack
[Pre-Chorus]
If I shake, I won’t break
If I scream, let it ring
I got a storm in my throat
And a crown made of teeth
[Chorus]
God sword, cut me clean
God sword, make me seen
Devil run, powers rise
Fear don’t live in these eyes
God sword, in my hand (in my hand)
God sword, make your stand (make your stand)
[Bridge]
I was born in the smoke
But I walked through the flame
I don’t bow to the dark
I don’t answer to shame
[Breakdown]
Devil, take your breath back
Fear, you lost your name
Anger turned to armor
Powers through my veins
[Final Chorus]
God sword, cut me clean
God sword, make me seen
Devil run, powers rise
Fear don’t live in these eyes
God sword, in my hand (in my hand)
God sword, make your stand (make your stand)
God sword, cut me clean
God sword, set me free
