Broken Halo

I’ve been runnin’ through the dark, tryna find a spark…
Lord, are You there?
’Cause the city feels cold… and my heart feels torn apart.

⸻

[Verse 1 – Smooth but broken tone, MJ-inspired delivery]

Every mirror shows my past,
Every scar reflects my fight,
Tryna dance with grace, but I keep steppin’ outta line.
Voices in my head say I’ll never be enough,
But You pulled me out the fire when the flames got rough.

⸻

[Pre-Chorus – NF-style tension]

All my doubts scream louder than my faith,
But You keep whisperin’ my name…
And every chain that held me down starts shakin’ in the rain.

⸻

[Chorus – The Weeknd darkness + Gospel redemption]

I wear this broken halo,
But Your mercy makes it shine.
I was lost inside the shadows,
’Til Your grace rewrote my life.
Don’t need the world’s halo,
Your love’s the only light—
Now I’m servin’ through the silence,
And I’m never sayin’ goodbye.

⸻

[Verse 2 – Cinematic rap / NF-inspired verse]

Yeah, I’ve been down on my knees in the dead of the night,
Prayin’ for peace, tryna see what’s right.
Every sin that I wore, I can feel it ignite,
But You burned it away with Your holy light.
Told me “Stand tall,” when my soul got small,
Lost in the crowd but You heard my call.
Now I’m servin’ not perfect, but I’m still His—
Even scars can preach when the pain still lives.

⸻

[Bridge – MJ emotional lift]

(soaring strings, layered harmonies)
Take this heart, break it new,
Every beat belongs to You.
Let me dance in Your fire,
Turn my ashes into truth.

⸻

[Final Chorus – Full cinematic explosion]

I wear this broken halo,
But You gave me back my name.
I was chained to my sorrows,
Now I’m covered by Your grace.
Don’t need gold, don’t need glory,
Your love is all I crave—
’Cause I’m walkin’ in Your promise,
And I’ll never be the same.

⸻

[Outro – Fade, heartbeat rhythm]

(soft breath, piano fades)
Lord… if the world don’t see me,
I just pray You do.
’Cause servin’ You in silence…
Still feels like truth.
