🎶 “Not Once”
Genre: Cinematic soul / prophetic ballad
[Verse 1]
They cast their spells in secret halls
Whispered my name through shadowed calls
Bruised my thoughts, marked my skin
But I stood tall, I held within
[Verse 2]
They danced with dolls, they cursed the light
Tempted me deep into the night
But I chose love, I chose the flame
And never once did I shift blame
[Chorus]
Not once did I regret
Not once did I break
I bore the fire, I took the blame
My silence was the sword
My vow became the storm
And now I wear the crown they tried to reform
[Verse 3]
They mocked my faith, they called me weak
But I spoke a truth, they couldn't speak
I made no pact, I cast no spell
I walked through heaven, I crawled through hell
[Bridge]
I became the in-between
Where angels bow and demons lean
I made allies of both sides
But never lost my sight
A Warrior of the light
[Chorus]
Not once did I regret
Not once did I fall
I endured the torment, I ...took it all
My silence was the sword
My love became the flame
In the power of ..His...name... by His ... echo … they ...knew.. my name
[Outro]
My crown is not of this world
My home is not this place
I passed the test, even though I bled....
my faith in Him.... i held with grace
And now I rise, not for revenge
But for the light that I defend
Not Once did I complain
I took it until the end
And now I wear the crown
You thought you'd take
