Intro (Soft Choir – Oohs / Ahhs)
Ooooh… ahhh…
Ooooh…
(voices rising like a distant echo)
⸻
Verse 1
We wandered through the hush of broken hours
Where silence learned the sound of our regret
Every memory a cathedral of shadows
Every prayer a secret we never said
Choir (soft, breathy):
Mm… ah…
Hold on… hold on…
⸻
Pre-Chorus
We carried every fear like it was holy
Wore our pain like armor on our skin
But even stars are born in violent fire
Before they ever learn to shine again
Choir (rising):
Rise… rise…
Let the light in…
⸻
Chorus (Full Choir Enters)
Lead:
So here we stand where the night surrenders
Where the dark finally lets us breathe
We’ve been broken, we’ve been burning
Now we’re learning who we’re meant to be
Choir (powerful):
We rise… we rise…
Out of the shadows we rise
Lead:
We’ve been walking through the fire
Just to find what’s real in we
Choir:
You are not alone
We were born to believe
⸻
Verse 2
We chased reflections in shattered glass
Mistook the pain for something holy
But every scar became a map
Leading us back to what we’re owed
Choir (low, rhythmic):
Hold on… hold on…
Lead:
We were never meant to disappear
We were meant to burn and still remain
⸻
Pre-Chorus
The fear still whispers, but it’s fading
We can hear our hearts again
Choir (building):
Breathe again… rise again…
⸻
Final Chorus (FULL CHOIR — ANTHEMIC)
Lead:
We are standing in the afterglow
Of every tear we ever cried
We were broken, we were burning
But we made it through the night
Choir:
We are more than our scars
We are light in the dark
Lead:
This is where the healing starts
When every voice decides to rise
Choir (soaring):
It takes all of us
To change, to trust, to rise again
From the ashes, from the pain
⸻
Outro (Choir Only → Fade)
Ooooh…
Together we rise…
Ooooh…
Into the light…
