<!-- VERSE 1 – MALE (Serious Rap/Sing) -->
<male_rap_sing>
I walked through fire, scars on my skin,
Tried to fight the dark but it pulled me in.
Every shadow I chase leads me back to you,
Every time I fall, your light pulls me through.
</male_rap_sing>
<!-- VERSE 1B – FEMALE (Ethereal Echo) -->
<female_ethereal>
I see your pain when you hide your eyes,
But love never fades, it never dies.
When the night turns cold, I’ll be your flame,
Every breath I take still calls your name.
</female_ethereal>

<!-- VERSE 2 – FEMALE (Semi-Acoustic) -->
<female_acoustic>
I’ve been waiting for the storm to break,
For the silence to end, for the ground to shake.
You’re the reason that I still believe,
Every scar we earn is the life we weave.
</female_acoustic>
<!-- VERSE 2B – MALE (Raw Rap/Scream Blend) -->
<male_rap_scream>
I bled on these pages, cried in these streets,
Lost in the chaos, fell to my knees.
But your voice cuts through, I breathe again,
You’re my faith, my fire, my only friend.
</male_rap_scream>

<!-- RAP EXTENSION – MALE (Confessional) -->
<male_confessional_rap>
I built these walls just to watch ‘em fall,
Shattered glass and the sirens call.
If tomorrow dies, I’ll still be true,
‘Cause nothing in this world means a thing without you.
