[Intro – Low guitar]
Ooooh-oh-oh
Ash falling down…
Ooooh-oh-oh
Verse 1
Ash falls down on a silent street
Sirens cry in a broken beat
Kings draw lines in the sand tonight
While mothers pray for morning light
Darkness crawling heart to heart
Tearing everything apart
But side by side we hold the line
Your hand in mine
Pre-Chorus
Steel on steel, but we won’t bend
Fear gets loud — we won’t give in
When the world says “Bow your head”
We rise instead
[Chorus Big / Punchy / Clean Rhyme[
Through the fire we stand
Unbroken, unafraid
Every scar on our hands
Is a vow that we made
When the night falls hard
And the smoke fills the sky
We are the spark in the dark
We are the reason why
Side by side we fight
We won’t run, we won’t hide
We are the light in the fire
And the fire’s alive
Verse 2
Chains wrapped tight around this earth
Power trading blood for worth
The strong gone wrong, the innocent bleed
While greed keeps planting poisoned seeds
But there’s a flame beneath our skin
Stronger than the fear within
Not by hate, not by war
But by something more
Pre-Chorus 2
Break the chains, let mercy move
Let the truth cut through the gloom
If the night thinks it has won
It hasn’t begun
Chorus
Through the fire we stand
Unbroken, unafraid
Every scar on our hands
Is a vow that we made
When the night falls hard
And the smoke fills the sky
We are the spark in the dark
We are the reason why
Side by side we fight
We won’t run, we won’t hide
We are the light in the fire
And the fire’s alive
[Bridge Drop – rhythmic / chantable]
Let the walls shake down
Let the chains hit ground
Let the silence break
Let the heavens sound
Not by power alone
Not by fear or control
But by love strong enough
To carry the whole
[Drum build…]
[Final Chorus Extended]
Through the fire we stand
Unbroken, unafraid
Every scar on our hands
Is a vow that we made
When the night falls hard
And the smoke fills the sky
We are the spark in the dark
We will not let it die
Side by side we rise
Feel the thunder inside
We are the light in the fire
And we won’t back down tonight
[Outro Crowd Chant]
Ooooh-oh-oh
We are the light
Ooooh-oh-oh
We rise tonight
