(Verse 1)
We both walked roads that disappeared
Maps burned up, nothing left but fear
You lost it all in twisted steel
I lost mine slow — but just as real

Different scars, same damn night
Same long fight for morning light
When the world turned its back again
You were still there — my friend

(Pre-Chorus)
No sermons, no advice
Just silence shared, and rolling dice
When everything was stripped away
We kept the part that couldn’t break

(Chorus)
This is for the ones who stay
When luck and glory fade away
No crowns, no throne, no promised land
Just one true hand in your hand

No need to speak, no need to prove
Some bonds don’t bend, they don’t improve
They simply are — and always will
Two free souls standing still

(Guitar Solo – slow blues lead)

(Verse 2)
You lived fast, wide open flame
Money, music, pleasure, pain
You gave it away when others lied
A golden heart you never hid

Restless mind, lightning brain
Always dancing in the rain
Too sharp for cages built too small
Too wild to kneel, too proud to fall

(Pre-Chorus)
They call it chaos, call it wrong
But freedom always plays that song
You never sold your inner flame
Even when the cost was pain

(Chorus)
This is for the ones who stay
When luck and glory fade away
No crowns, no throne, no promised land
Just one true hand in your hand

No need to speak, no need to prove
Some bonds don’t bend, they don’t improve
They simply are — and always will
Two free souls standing still

(Guitar Solo – emotional, expressive)

(Bridge – Dutch, male voice)

Broeder, luister even goed
Niet alles moet worden gezegd
Maar soms moet je het horen
Dat je telt
Dat je er mag zijn
Dat je niet alleen loopt

We zijn gevallen
Maar niet gebroken
Nog steeds hier
Nog steeds vrij

(Instrumental break – rising guitars)

(Bridge – Turkish, male voice)

Rüzgar sert esti üstümüzden
Ama içimizde ateş sönmedi
Yollar kapandı, dünya sustu
Ama dostluk hiç gitmedi

(Both voices – English translation, sung together)

The wind was strong, it knocked us down
But the fire inside still burned somehow
The road went dark, the world fell silent
But brotherhood stayed defiant

(Final Chorus – both voices)

This is for the few who remain
When life strips pride and fortune’s name
No spotlight, no applause, no fame
Just truth that time can’t rearrange

Pick up the strings, let it sing
You were born to make something ring
Not for money — not for noise
But for the fire inside your voice

(Outro – soft guitar fading)

Some things don’t need to be said
But tonight… they were.
