[Intro 0:00-0:30 - slow atmospheric pad, pipe organ drone, santur tremolo, distant frame drum, no vocals, desert dawn, An Abstract Illusion pause]

[Verse 1 0:30-1:00 - female vocal, deep contralto, Persian-Yemenite melismatic, intimate, close mic, oud and kamancheh under, no heavy drums, floating]
He walks his own road
He stands apart
He sees the silence
Inside every heart

[Pre-Chorus 1:00-1:20 - female voice rises, frame drums enter softly, quarter tone slides, Persian ornamentation, tension builds]
He's different
He's not afraid
When hope is fading
He lights the way

[Chorus 1 1:20-1:50 - male lead enters, deep raspy clean, heavy groove, female harmony with Persian melismas, cinematic orchestral hit]
He shines for them
When the night comes down
He lifts them up
He turns them around
He shines for them
A fire in the dark
One small spark
A thousand hearts

[Verse 2 1:50-2:20 - female vocal, deeper, more intimate, Persian melismatic, bent notes, heavy groove recedes, oud and kamancheh]
He knows the struggle
He knows the pain
He helps the broken
Rise again

[Pre-Chorus 2 2:20-2:35 - female voice rises with wide vibrato, Persian ornamentation, tribal percussion enters, tension builds]
He's different
That's where he starts
He gives his strength
He gives his heart

[Chorus 2 2:35-3:05 - male lead, full heavy groove, female harmony with Persian melismas, double kicks, cinematic swell]
He shines for them
When the night comes down
He lifts them up
He turns them around
He shines for them
A fire in the dark
One small spark
A thousand hearts

[Bridge 3:05-3:40 - TEMPO SHIFT TO 170 BPM, blast beats, tremolo picking, female intense Persian cry, male desperate shouts (no growls), full chaos, the call to rise]
(170 BPM blast beats, female Persian melisma: Ya-leil-ya-leil, quarter tones)
Stand tall! Move on!
(female cry: Ah-ah-ah)
Stay strong! Hold on!
(male shout: Hold on!)
They rise! They fight!
They shine! Tonight!

[Sudden Stop 3:40-3:45 - complete silence, An Abstract Illusion pause, the spark ignites]

[Final Chorus 3:45-4:30 - return to 70 BPM, both voices full power, male desperate peak, female deep contralto Persian melismatic cry, full orchestral swell, double bass, heavy groove, maximum intensity]
He shines for them
(female melisma: Ah-ah-ah, quarter tones, wide vibrato)
When the night comes down
He lifts them up
He turns them around
He shines for them
A fire in the dark
One small spark
A thousand hearts

[Outro 4:30-5:30 - guitars fade, santur solo, frame drum heartbeat, female whisper-fade with Persian quarter tone descent, male final whisper, ethereal fade, silence]
(female whisper, Persian melismatic fading, quarter tone descent) Different... Fearless...
(male whisper, final breath) Shining... Forever...
[ fade to silence ]
