[Verse 1]
Smoke in the sky
Stone in the road
I walk on the edge
Still carry this code
Truth in my chest
Shakes when I breathe
Scars like a map
Of what I believe
[Verse 2]
Fear in the air
Thick like a fog
I cut through the doubt
Like a marching song
Hands start to tremble
Heart starts to race
I steady my voice
I stand in my place (stand in my place)
[Chorus]
I will hold the line of light
When the night screams, I stay bright
I choose peace, I speak it louder
Armor made of gentler power
I will hold the line of light
Every breath, a vow I write
I choose peace, I keep it near
Truth and valor over fear (over fear)
[Bridge]
Not backing down
Just laying arms
Turning my rage
Into open palms
Say it again
Till the shadows break
“Love is the law
That no hate can take” (oh-oh)
[Chorus]
I will hold the line of light
When the night screams, I stay bright
I choose peace, I speak it louder
Armor made of gentler power
I will hold the line of light
Every breath, a vow I write
I choose peace, I keep it near
Truth and valor over fear (over fear)
