[Verse 1 – Shadow]
You’ll never leave me, you’ll never lose me
We are stitched in the same skin loosely
You can pray but you can’t undo me
Every scar on your heart still proves me
You think you can hide from the pain
You think a cross erases the shame
This is who we are, we are the same
Different words, but we play one game
This is the way it’s always been
Fall down, crawl back into sin
You can shout “I’m changed” again
But I’m the echo under your skin
We’ll always be this — don’t pretend
You and I until the end
No escape, no cleansing flame
We were born in this chain
[Pre-Chorus – Shadow whispering]
You’re mine
You’re mine
Until we die
[Chorus – Redeemed rises]
You’ll never win — I gave us to Jesus
The grave you built couldn’t keep us
He’s in control now, not our fear
Your voice grows weaker every year
We’re no longer slaves to the past
What He begins, He finishes fast
You say we’re one — that was before
The blood rewrote what we’re living for
You’re not in control anymore
[Verse 2 – Shadow (aggressive)]
You talk like faith erased the scars
But I still know where the weak spots are
Late at night when the room goes dark
I’m the match — I’m the spark
You remember the rush, remember the fire
Remember the taste of your old desire
You think surrender means you’re free
You’ll crawl back eventually
You can’t outrun what’s in your veins
You can’t pray away our DNA
We are one — don’t you see
You can’t amputate me
[Verse 3 – Redeemed (calm but firm)]
You mistake memory for authority
You mistake history for identity
I don’t deny you once had power
But the cross broke that in a single hour
You call it DNA — I call it sin
And sin lost when He walked out again
You say we’re one — but that’s a lie
I was buried when He died
The old man fell into that grave
I rose with Christ, no longer a slave
You threaten death — you speak in fear
But resurrection happened here
[Bridge – Both (overlapping argument)]
Shadow:
You’ll never leave me —
Redeemed:
I already did —
Shadow:
You’ll never lose me —
Redeemed:
He conquered sin —
Shadow:
This is who we are —
Redeemed:
That man is dead —
Shadow:
We’ll always be the same —
Redeemed:
I’m Spirit-led —
Shadow:
You think you can hide from pain
Redeemed:
I don’t hide — I heal —
Shadow:
We are one —
Redeemed:
No. I kneel.
[Breakdown – Redeemed declaration]
I gave us to Jesus
You don’t get a vote
He’s steering this heart,
You don’t run this soul
You ruled through shame,
Through guilt and control —
But grace took the throne
And made this whole
You’re no longer master
You’re no longer king
The chain you forged
Lost everything
He is redeeming —
He is restoring —
What you meant for ruin
He’s rewriting glory.
[Final Chorus – Victorious]
You’ll never win — He already did
The war you fight was over at the hill
You scream “forever” — but forever changed
The Lamb was slain — the stone was rolled away
You say we’re the same — that’s yesterday
I’m crucified but alive today
You’re not in control — understand —
This life belongs to the Great I AM
