Prompt / Lyrics
Broken, my breath is broken, Shaken, my body is shaken, But my voice is strengthened, [Verse 1] I watch the sun fall, my men crawl, I watched my own kin, their breath thin, I feel my bones crushed, my soul too But something keeps me hopeful, Even while lying in my bloody pool [pre-chorus] Broken, my breath is broken, Shaken, my body is shaken, But my voice is strengthened, [chorus] Even though my hair pasted to my chest, Even though I have a shallow breath, My voice still builds like snow on a peak My heart still drums with a steady beat, My kin, my men, I can't ensure survival But I will swallow my pride and with this breath! I will… Cry out! (Cry) Cry out! (Cry) Cry out! (Cry, cry) Ahhhhhhhh I will… Cry out! (Cry) Cry out! (Cry) Cry out! (Cry, cry) I won’t let silence take me now. [Verse 2] I see the smoke rise, hear war cries, I hold a cold hand, can’t understand, I taste the dirt and broken steel, I press the wound but still I feel, I hear my brothers call my name, I fear the dark but stay the same. [Pre-Chorus] Broken, my breath is broken, Shaken, my body is shaken, But my voice is awakened, ⸻ [Chorus] Even if the night floods over my eyes, Even if the mountain buries my cries, My voice still gathers like thunder in the deep, My will still wakes what fear would keep, My kin, my men, I can’t command tomorrow, But with this ragged breath I borrow I will… Cry out! (Cry) Cry out! (Cry) Cry out! (Cry, cry) Let the valley know my name! Cry out! (Cry) Cry out! (Cry) Cry out! (Cry, cry) Set the dark itself aflame! ⸻ [Bridge] If I fall, let it be loud, If I fade, I’ll split the cloud, From cracked ribs and trembling ground, Hope is not a silent sound. It climbs, it claws, it breaks the seam, It rips a dawn from dying dreams. ⸻ [Rap Break|choir humming] Yeah. Mud in my mouth but I’m speaking in fire, Back on the ground but my voice climbing higher, Boot on my chest, hear the crack of a rib, Still I refuse to just die where I live. Blood in my vision, I blink and I see All of my fallen still marching with me, Echo in echo, their breath in my lungs, War in my veins but a hymn on my tongue. They tried to bury the sound of my name, Pressed me in dirt like I’m part of the slain, But pressure makes diamonds, and diamonds cut stone, You can’t silence a man who has nothing but tone. Pain is a drum and it pounds in my skull, Fear is a chain but it’s rusting and dull, I’m more than a body that’s torn in the fray, I’m every last promise we made that day. So if I fall, let the heavens record it, If I crawl, let the earth feel the force of it, From shattered ribs to a sky split apart, You can’t kill the cry of a warrior’s heart. Yeah ——— [Final Chorus] Though my shadow stretches thin, Though the cold is settling in, My voice still builds like snow on a peak, My heart still drums though I grow weak, My kin, my men, wherever you are, Follow the echo, follow the scar, With this last breath in my lungs… I will… Cry out! (Cry!) Cry out! (Cry!)
