(Intro - Heavy, distorted guitar riff with a strong, driving drum beat)
(Verse 1)
I see the effort in your hands, the fire in your heart
Trying to be the father, playing the husband's part
But shadows still cling tight, a plague from your past
Whispering a lie that was never meant to last
(Pre-Chorus)
They tell you that you stumbled, that the damage is done
That the war in your soul is already lost and won
But your heart is rebuilt, a landscape transformed
Don't you listen to the devil, don't be storm-alarmed
(Chorus - Louder, anthemic, with vocal power)
You are not broken, you are not unworthy
That's the oldest lie in this cursed journey
You're worth more than the credit you give away for free
Worthy of the blood, worthy of the sacrifice, worthy of the call you see
It's not a role, it's an assignment, it's a reason to fight
It's the duty to obey, bringing heaven to the light
(Verse 2)
This world confuses a paycheck with the truth of the sound
They think a ministry setting is holy ground
You can clock in a job and still do ministry things
But the job is a cage when the assignment has wings
The pressure is a load that most cannot stand
But you're called to the front line, a minister to the land
(Pre-Chorus)
You're the real deal, son, you've got to live it out now
No more searching for a role, just take a solemn vow
To let me align you where I need you to be
Stop worrying 'bout the title, just reach out and just agree
(Chorus - Louder, anthemic, with vocal power)
You are not broken, you are not unworthy
That's the oldest lie in this cursed journey
You're worth more than the credit you give away for free
Worthy of the blood, worthy of the sacrifice, worthy of the call you see
It's not a role, it's an assignment, it's a reason to fight
It's the duty to obey, bringing heaven to the light
(Bridge - Tempo slows slightly, bass line becomes prominent, guitar cleans up for a brief, melodic solo)
Outreach and discipleship, they are simply the ways
Not the company mandate for the rest of your days
Don't overcomplicate the message, keep it simple and clean
Just call them to know me, the most important scene
(Guitar Solo - Energetic, emotional, building in intensity and distortion, resolving back to the main riff)
(Chorus - Full power, maximum intensity)
You are not broken, you are not unworthy
That's the oldest lie in this cursed journey
You're worth more than the credit you give away for free
Worthy of the blood, worthy of the sacrifice, worthy of the call you see
It's not a role, it's an assignment, it's a reason to fight
It's the duty to obey, bringing heaven to the light
(Outro - Repeated, fading refrain over heavy, driving riff)
Just live out your calling...
Just live out your assignment...
Simple... so simple...
(Final crashing chord and feedback)
