[Verse 1]
Got a campfire scar on my hands
And a sword made out of sand
Percy in the black water
I can feel it calling out his name
Salt on the wind, blood in the foam
A kid too brave to go back home
The sky keeps counting down on him
Like a promise with a blade for a tongue
[Pre-Chorus]
The gods don’t sleep, they just stare
From high white rooms of cold air
And every prayer hits the ceiling
Then drops back down like rain
[Chorus]
Percy Jackson, hold on tight
Hold on tight through the broken night
Percy Jackson, don’t bow down
Love and storm gonna shake this ground
(hold on tight)
(hold on tight)
[Verse 2]
He’s got his mother in his chest
And a stranger’s fire in his breath
Every road turns into deep water
Every choice comes with a cost
I seen him stand where the thunder split
With a grin like he was made for it
Even fate got a trembling hand
When that boy says “not today”
[Pre-Chorus]
The gods don’t sleep, they just stare
From high white rooms of cold air
And every prayer hits the ceiling
Then drops back down like rain
[Chorus]
Percy Jackson, hold on tight
Hold on tight through the broken night
Percy Jackson, don’t bow down
Love and storm gonna shake this ground
(hold on tight)
(hold on tight)
[Bridge]
If the sea takes names, he takes back his
If the dark wants blood, he bleeds like this
With a thousand voices in the smoke
And a holy ache he won’t let go
[Final Chorus]
Percy Jackson, hold on tight
Hold on tight through the broken night
Percy Jackson, don’t bow down
Love and storm gonna shake this ground
Percy Jackson, hear that roar
Fate can knock, but he wants more
(hold on tight)
(hold on tight)
