Lyrics

[VERSE 1]
The night was breaking on the walls
the enemy was closing in
The city shook beneath their march
we had no strength left to defend
My wife was crying in the dark
my child unborn, a fragile spark—
and every prayer I’d ever known
felt too small for what was coming on

[PRE‑CHORUS]
But something in me whispered
“If you run, they’ll fall alone.”
So I walked into the ruins
where the old gods turned to stone

[CHORUS]
And I said, "If there’s a miracle
I need it here tonight
If there’s a spark of mercy left
then let it be our light.”
I knelt down in the darkness
with nothing but my blood—
and when I rose, the world had changed
and the gods stood up

[VERSE 2]
A day had passed without a breath
no hunger, pain, or fear remained
A soldier watched beside my form
and felt his weariness erased
He looked at me with trembling eyes
said, “Sir… you’re burning from inside.”
And word spread through the broken streets
that hope had found a way to rise

[PRE‑CHORUS]
I gathered all my captains
their faith worn thin as thread—
but when they saw the fire in me
their courage woke from death

[CHORUS]
And I said, “If there’s a miracle
it’s not for me alone
If there’s a spark of mercy left
then let it fill your bones.”
We drank the blood‑rite promise
our hearts became enough—
and when they drew their blades again
every sword lit up

[BRIDGE]
We rode out like a sunrise
breaking through a storm
A thousand foes before us
but we were not the same as before
The gods had breathed upon us
the fire in our veins—
and every step we thundered

[FINAL CHORUS]
And I said, “If there’s a miracle
let it carry us tonight
If there’s a spark of mercy left
then let it be our fight.”
We charged into the darkness
our faith became enough—
and the day the world was meant to fall
the gods stood up
