Verse 1 – Male Voice
I walked a mile through a devil’s town
Boot heels draggin that gravel down
Dust on my Bible, blood on my name
Every old scar got a man to blame
I tried forgiveness like the good book says
Turned the other cheek till there’s nothing left
But some wolves smile when the shepherd’s gone
And some debts live a little too long
Pre-Chorus – Male Voice
So I tipped my hat to the sky tonight
Said a prayer in the pale moonlight
Chorus – Both Voices
May God have mercy on my enemies
Cause mercy ain’t something they’ll find in me
We tried walking the narrow road
But some hearts only carry the load
Let the heavens judge what they see
May God have mercy on my enemies
Cause mercy ain’t ours tonight
No mercy left in this fight
Verse 2 – Female Voice (Zona)
I watched the truth get buried in lies
Heard every whisper behind our lives
They thought silence would make us weak
But fire’s just quiet before it speaks
I held the line when the night got cold
Watched your faith turn harder than stone
They lit the match and walked away
Now they’ll answer for it someday
Pre-Chorus – Female Voice
So I raised my eyes to the stars above
Prayed for the souls that betrayed our love
Chorus – Both Voices
May God have mercy on our enemies
Cause mercy ain’t something they’ll find in me
We tried walking the narrow road
But some hearts only carry the load
Let the heavens judge what they see
May God have mercy on our enemies
Cause mercy ain’t ours tonight
No mercy left in this fight
Bridge – Call and Response
Male:
I ain’t the judge, I ain’t the crown
But I remember who burned it down
Female (Zona):
And I ain’t the storm, I ain’t the flame
But I remember every name
Male:
If redemption’s waiting past the pain
Female:
They’ll have to face what they became
Both:
Let heaven sort the souls from blame
Final Chorus – Both (Power Harmony)
May God have mercy on our enemies
Cause mercy ain’t something they’ll find in me
We prayed and begged for a softer way
But the devil’s debt came due today
Let the heavens judge what they see
May God have mercy on our enemies
Cause mercy ain’t ours tonight
No mercy left in this fight
Outro – Male & Zona (soft)
Male: I said a prayer beneath the moon…
Zona: I heard the thunder coming soon…
Both: May God have mercy on our enemies…
Cause mercy ain’t in me.
