Verse 1 I remember the day you chose the flame Not the legend, not the name Just a heartbeat in your hands And a sky you didn’t understand They called it danger, called it fate Whispers circling like a gate But I saw the way he looked at you Not as a burden — but something true Pre-Chorus You don’t need the world to believe You don’t need to prove what I can see Chorus Ratha — spread your wings and rise The storm won’t claim what the heart defies Let the fire burn clean and bright Not for fear — but for the light Ratha — hear her when she calls Through falling ash and broken walls The sky is wide, the path is long But you’ve both known it all along Verse 2 There were nights the wind turned cold And doubt was louder than the old Stories written before your birth About what power might be worth You never asked to carry flame You never bowed beneath a name And if your hands begin to shake I’ll steady what the world would break Pre-Chorus You don’t have to stand alone Even when you choose your own Chorus Ratha — spread your wings and rise The storm won’t claim what the heart defies Let the fire burn clean and bright Not for fear — but for the light Ratha — trust the one you chose Through shadowed peaks and falling snows The sky is wide, the path is long But you’ve both known it all along Bridge There are shapes that move beyond the veil Ancient breaths in a silent gale A name that drifts through fractured air Oltura waiting somewhere When the heavens split and the earth replies When truth is written across the skies Remember this before the fall — You were never alone at all Final Chorus (Lifted, strings swell) Ratha — let the fire show Not what they fear, but what you know The bond you forged will not depart Flame and sky and beating heart Ratha — wherever you may roam The wind will guide you home And if the path grows hard to see Look once — and you’ll find me
