(Heavy, rhythmic guitar riff, joined by a steady, war-like drum beat)
(Tempo is driving and relentless)
They sent a shadow with a leash to bind my soul
A venomous assignment to take its toll
It clings to my spirit, a parasitic weight
Whispering failure at the door, but it's too late
I see the battle line, I feel the endless strain
But I won't back down, I'll drag it through the rain
To the courtroom steps where every lie will fade
This dark force is real, but my decision's made.
(Music builds tension, bass line becomes more prominent)
It’s angry that it failed to steal the life from me
Limited success is all it's gonna be!
The cup of suffering is mine to drink today
But the strength to overcome, you give it anyway!
(Explosive, heavy, powerful chorus)
I AM YOURS! You can't disqualify this soldier!
STAND UP! The mission is still on my shoulder!
DRAG IT! I'll march this demon to the gate!
LET'S GO! I refuse to slow down, I will not tolerate!
I lay the fight down, my hands are open wide!
Your will is the drive, and you are the One to guide!
(Slight drop in intensity)
Tired of the struggle, tired of the back and forth
A messenger of Satan, a pain to chart my course
But Paul pushed forward, accomplishing the call
So I will not allow this thought to make me fall
I won't let it rule my mind, won't let the lie take hold
My destiny's written in a story ages old
I trust the Father even when I can't discern
The fire is the process, and this is how I learn!
(Music builds tension)
It’s angry that it failed to steal the life from me
Limited success is all it's gonna be!
The cup of suffering is mine to drink today
But the strength to overcome, you give it anyway!
(Explosive, heavy, powerful chorus)
I AM YOURS! You can't disqualify this soldier!
STAND UP! The mission is still on my shoulder!
DRAG IT! I'll march this demon to the gate!
LET'S GO! I refuse to slow down, I will not tolerate!
I lay the fight down, my hands are open wide!
Your will is the drive, and you are the One to guide!Guitar Solo
(Intense, fast, and rhythmic solo over a repeated heavy riff and steady drumming)
(Music drops, just a clean, heavy bass and distant, echoing guitar chords. Vocals are low and determined)
I don't care where I live, or the money that I make
You provide the roof, for goodness gracious sake
I am finally ready, the long time's in the past
This new chapter starts now, moving way too fast!
Do not fear your circumstance, that's part of what I do
Let Me be the driver, let Me be in control of you!
SON! (Screamed) You are more than ready!
(Final, most powerful repeat of the chorus)
I AM YOURS! You can't disqualify this soldier!
STAND UP! The mission is still on my shoulder!
DRAG IT! I'll march this demon to the gate!
LET'S GO! I refuse to slow down, I will not tolerate!
I lay the fight down, my hands are open wide!
Your will is the drive, and you are the One to guide
(Drum beat hits a final, heavy cadence. Guitar holds a long, feedback-laced, distorted chord, silence)
