[Verse 1]
I stand inside the static, walls humming all around
Faces pressed to windows, watching me without a sound
I feel the pull, the pressure, scars that teach me how to breathe
Holding onto promises, waiting for the tide to leave
[Chorus]
You lead me, test me, tie my hands but not my will
A puppet learning motion, shaped by every gentle pull
If You cast me to the finish, washed and ready for the light
I'll run this road, keep steady, faith enough to win the fight
[Verse 2]
They laugh beneath the spotlight, snap the frames that never heal
But ink of faith is deeper, mapped beneath the skin that's real
No hollow masks or sideshow, just a steady, steady beat
I lift a voice that shakes the quiet, move with purpose to my feet
[Bridge]
Walls bend, the crowd can linger, every test will form the plan
Not lost or owned, but guided — a vessel in an open hand
When the last bell calls my number, I will cross with steady stride
What was broken turns to glory, all this shaping turned to light
[Chorus]
You lead me, test me, tie my hands but not my will
A puppet learning motion, shaped by every gentle pull
If You cast me to the finish, washed and ready for the light
I'll run this road, keep steady, faith enough to win the fight
