I pray for those who aim my way
I see shadows and they dance pavane
This weight feels light now
Mirror speaks what the truth can't hide
I walk through fire with my head held high
This weight feels light now
Stitch by stitch, I've stitched my name
Out of silence, built the frame
Carved from stone, in a world of clay
Roots run deep where the rivers break
Gold on my wrist but the cost was steep
Time's a thief, so my soul don't sleep
Grew from the ground, every crack, every fold
Never blinked at the sight of the rise or fall
No shortcuts, just scars to show
Every mark on my skin is a seed I sow
Caught the doubt, let it fuel my climb
Wrote the future in the stars, now the path is mine
I pray for those who aim my way
I see shadows and they dance pavane
This weight feels light now
Mirror speaks what the truth can't hide
I walk through fire with my head held high
This weight feels light now
City lights blur, but my mind stays sharp
Compass set straight through the noise and dark
Knew the cost when the war began
Paid in full, now I stand as a better man
All the shadows tried to pull me down
Still I rose, now I crown this ground
Balance found in the smallest things
A silent prayer, the joy it brings
Kept my circle pure, no space for lies
Built my wings where the old dreams died
Not for fame, just a life well-spent
Every dollar earned speaks what words can't
But for what I know
The seeds I planted made the future grow
This weight feels light now
