Stand Against the Night

Walking through the night, barefoot on the cold ground

Echoes of despair, shadows all around

But deep inside, a fire burns bright

Guiding me through this endless night

With my youngest on my back, I carry hope

Through the storm, through the rope

Two hearts torn, trying to find their way

In the darkness, where demons sway

Whispering fears, trying to bring me down

But I rise above, won't drown

Ancestors’ voices screaming to take up my arms for war

In the shadows of my hopelessness i find my light

You never know how strong you are until you have no choice but to be strong

No choice but to push on, carry on

Standing tall against the night, warrior’s cry

They will remember, when they hear my battle cry

Facing the abyss, my shield held high

Sword in hand, I'll defy the demons

Legions of despair, I stand my ground

In my heart, hope is found

You never know how strong you are until you have no choice but to be strong

No choice but to push on, carry on

Standing tall against the night, warrior’s cry

They will remember, when they hear my battle cry

With every scar and every tear

I conquer fear, I persevere

The night may endless be, but I’ll survive

In my spirit, I come alive
