Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Steel on my shoulders Oaths in my spine Dirt on my armor Blood on the shrine I’ve seen kings trembling Behind their walls But I was sworn To the scared and the small (oh yeah) [Chorus] I raise my shield for the people For every name they never write down I feel the ground shake under my boots But I won’t I won’t back down Let every dark thing hear me I’m the wall that will not fall By my light By my life I am the shield of the small [Verse 2] Torches in alleys Daggers at night Bandits and warlords Feasting on fright I plant my banner Right in their path If they want victims They’ll taste my wrath (hey!) [Chorus] I raise my shield for the people For every name they never write down I feel the ground shake under my boots But I won’t I won’t back down Let every dark thing hear me I’m the wall that will not fall By my light By my life I am the shield of the small [Bridge] I’ve broken I’ve bled I’ve doubted every vow I said But when they cry I hear my call If I must die I’ll die standing tall (woah) [Chorus] I raise my shield for the people For every name they never write down I feel the ground shake under my boots But I won’t I won’t back down Let every dark thing hear me I’m the wall that will not fall By my light By my life I am the shield of the small By my light By my life I am the shield of the small

Epic fantasy rock with thunderous tom-heavy drums and growling bass, baritone male vocals. Verses ride a marching rhythm with chanted gang vocals on key phrases; chorus explodes with soaring power-chord guitars and stacked harmonies. Brief halftime bridge with battlefield ambience and distant choirs before a final, higher-key chorus.
